Today I got my new light and installed on my Innovative Marine Nuvo 30 long tank. I did a search prior to buying these lights but I did not see any post on R2R so I am starting a new thread for those interested in them.
I did try the Amazon Smatfarm 95W before sending it back because the fan was too loud. The fan on this one is a lot better and the menu to program the lights are very similar. I like the mounting arm on these lights much better than the Smatfarm the mount is similar the the Kessil AP700 also the cord runs inside the tube hiding it from view.
The light at full power draws about 102 Watts from the AC outlet (measured by Kill A Watt) you can set the ramp up and ramp down time and the schedule on the light very easily as well as the profile for the LED channels.
It has 5 Channels:
A= 14,000K Col White,
B= 450nm Deep Sea Blue + 457nm Dark Blue
C= 430nm Indigo Blue
D= 410nm Violet, 420nm Purple
E= 3000K Warm White and 6500K Neutral White
It also comes with a remote control which does not seem to be very useful but you can toggle between some different light settings.
Here are some pics...
