Hey Guys,

Just wondering if there's anyone out there with this model of unit?

I'm thinking of purchasing the 10 x 39w unit and would like to see peoples tanks currently running with them.

Any photo's would be greatly appreciated.

Tagging along... Interesting in 10x80w unit...

Is this new T5 unit on the market?

 

[rodneyri]

Had my 8x80w for two weeks, initial impressions are pretty good light, easy to program, performance I measure PAR at Powermodule level, down side is the fans arent very quiet you will hear them when the light is on.

Hey Rodney,
Thankx for feedback . I wonder why PS can't use same fans what ATI uses, ATI fans are dead silent.. Are they really that loud?

One more question,
Does this fixture have splash/glass protection like ATI PM?

 

[rodneyri]

You can definately hear them but they arent that bad, but in an honest review its something to consider. A cheap jeabo powerhead is louder...

Yep they have a sheet of splash protection, better than the ATI IMO because it slides into a bracket from both ends of the light and no sagging like the ATIs do. You can turn the tubes on in banks of two aswell.

I've went a head and bought one as well as PS T5 lamps to go with it.

I'll post pictures when it arrives

Coming on three months with mine, ran the PS tubes that came with it for 6-8 weeks (cant remember exactly) but dumped them for ATI tubes

Still happy with the light, performing strong, looks great and hasnt missed a beat. Turning tubes on in banks of 2 is awesome compared to other T5 units.

Looking great Rodney. What bulbs combo do you have now?

 

[rodneyri]

Currently,

Why the switch from ATI Hybrid?

 

[MSHUR]

My tank is 36" deep and i dont get enough coverage with 8 bulbs. Looking forward to try 10 bulbs combo..
have you try Giesemann T5 ?

 

[rodneyri]

Yes the Giesemann tubes are great aswell, so are the KZ. Id use either of those without any fuss
