Does anyone happen to have some pictures/examples of how they've ceiling mounted Kessil ap9x lights?
I'm a bit unsure of how to route power specifically (conceptually) and am looking for examples of people who have ceiling mounted these lights without any form of canopies.
Hi, I have 2 Neptune Sky and 1 COR20 in my tank, drawing power from the wall outlet rather than the EB832. My question is, is there a way to monitor the power draw data of those devices through the aquabus cable? The Power Log feature only shows devices in the EB832. Thanks.
Hey Guys, I am looking to get a yellow wrasse Saturday and planning on QT this guy. My plan is to add him to the QT and watch him for about 2-3 days and make sure he eats and settles in and then start dosing copper power. First is this ok to do or do I need to start Copper right away or Have the...
Figured I'd share my findings with the class.
I was astounded at how much my heaters were running all day and night, especially considering the amount of pumps and lights adding heat to the tank. Last night I decided to try an experiment that has already shown it's going to pay off quickly.
I...
I've recently been doing a lot more research into power outages as I stock my tanks with expensive torches. With severe weather events and fires only increasing where I live, I think it's prudent to prepare for when the lights go out for extended periods or if I need to evacuate for a number of...
I'd like to think that I'm a fairly intelligent person. But either I don't have the right part or I'm not the baby Einstein I believe I am. Lol
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to run these four lights down to one connection on the power supply.
I have added pictures to show what I...
Bought two Kessil A360WE lights brand new from BRS 3.5 years ago. Both lights are connected to the same controller in series. The light in the video has begun flashing like crazy during ramp down. The other works perfectly.
Anyone experience this before? Possible solutions?
TIA!
Hello folks, I have a question and it's about the power outage, I would like to know what ideas and devices are used for this. Here back in I think was 2003, there was an outage around ten days long or so. If something like this has happened, what did you do to keep all your friends alive...
I'm about to get hit by hurricane Ian, is the ecotech power backup only for ecotech pumps or is it universal??? I know I can build one cheap but I don't have time to.
Located in Louisville, Colorado (80027).
Selling because I decommissioned my 125-gallon saltwater tank after an extended power outage.
All items are working and fully functional unless noted otherwise. Most items were purchased in 2018 or 2019 and decommissioned at the end of 2021. Prices...
95% of my devices run off DC power at a few common voltages. I've been thinking that I could get together a marine battery, some DC/DC power supplies, and power my pumps & powerheads off battery-backup backed DC power which will simply keep operating in the event of a power failure. IP67 DC/DC...
If you want the answer skip to the end.
For most of you, the Sol, Hydra, Hydra 52 are lights you might never have heard of. Some of us still have them, and have a lot of money invested, so are trying to every last drop out of them, hint to AI maybe an upgrade path with a discount on new lights...
I'm new to this controller system but jumped in deep all at once on my new 375. Among other things I have 3 EB832's. All three work to power devices plugged into it and can be controlled. The only problem with one of the EB's is that it does not report Power or Current correctly. I have...

So since I live in Florida now I’ve been thinking more about what to do in extended outages. I already have an Icecap battery backup, a battery powered rechargeable air pump, a 200 watt power inverter, and a 3500 watt portable generator. Obviously those should be enough for most situations. My...
Do I have to use the included power adapter, or can I connect them directly to the EB832 with the 4 or 6 pin connector?
Seems strange the DOS has 4pin connection (as does the EB832) but a cord isn't included.
Anyway, I'm just looking to save space and free up as many outlets as I can. What...
I’ve been trying to get some input on the current USA marine orbit led light
There is 3 different versions of them atm
The regular
The ic
The ic pro
I currently have the regular on a 10 gallon tank about 2 inches off the surface how much power is this thing really
for apex do any of the modules have to plug into conventional power or do they all use aquabus for power and data? trying to figure out how many conventional power outlets i will need and the neptune docs dont really spell it out (or i am not understanding).
as an additional quest i assume if...
The power went out at my house during a storm, but was only out for 15-30 minutes. After the power came back, lights, pump, ect all came back on perfectly, but I notice one of my three circulation pumps didn’t turn back on. The pump that didn’t turn back on is plugged into a surge protector with...
Just wanted to share this product I found at Walmart, currently it's controlling my Christmas tree lights, but thought it could have some good uses in a reef tank. Using an app you can set up multiple units, multiple on off times a day, and control it from anywhere you have cell signal.
It's...
