What's your source for the LED's & power supply? Looking VERY nice!!

 

[GUILLO1]

did you mount the T5 reflectors on straight aluminum or is it c-channel. How is the c-channel working with the heat on your other LED fixture?

LEDs on straight aluminum --> T5 reflectors---> C-channel

C channel Aluminum 2"w x 1"h I think really good heat sink for my LED light fixtures, no need fan to cooling.

100W LED 14000K

 

[GUILLO1]

Jae, that looks really good , with the T-5 Reflectors .

 

[CMcNeil]

why the reflectors?do you think you are losing light out of the sides?

for experimental.
the white LED are 60 degree. but royal blue are 120 degree and no optic lens
I think it will better with reflector

Jae and Joseph very nice build, need some up-dated pictures with blue and pictures of Josephs tank.. Would like to do build for my 65-gal. How many lights-white and blue- lights, what ratio are you using??

 

[GlassReef]

A quick question, Jae: if you electronically dim the output of the LEDs you are using, does the color temperature change?

Thanks.
