New P1802 hybrid with new all black K7s!

[dantimdad]

I got my setup installed on my 93 cube. Granted, the T5s are 4" too long but, the fixture looks fantastic and the ability to aim the T5s is AMAZING! If you couldn't do this everyone in my living room would go blind! LOL!

I have to clean the glass, so the following shot is just to show what the fixture looks like on my tank. I will take more pictures after I clean and the water settles. Suffice it to say, the coloration is beautiful and and I haven't even tweaked it yet. The K7s are all channels on 25%.

BTW, the height for the LEDs is just right in my opinion.

This is my first LED/T5 setup. I have to say the reduction in shadowing is fantastic and I have just the right amount of shimmer from the LEDs.

I want a little bit more blue and less red so I will turn up the royals and violets and down the red/green channel.

Could you share the inner diameter where the LED’s mount? I’m crossing my fingers it’s the same or close as the aquatic life fixture.

I want to use my Kessil A360’s with the hybrid but circular mounts are not available as of yet.

The mounts are flat bars with slots in them. You could use them on the A360s ( used to have some) But, you would definitely have to make sure you use some double stick tape on the bars to hold them. They are designed to hold rectangular fixtures in slots on the sides. I will take a pic of what I mean.

As you can see it just rests in a groove on either side of the opening.

The m4 screw goes into the fixture through the slotted bar. The slot is big enough for and M5 or M6 screw.

If you used the m2(?) for the 360 I would guess a washer would have to be used to keep it from falling through the slot.

I have an old 360 fixture that doesn't work. When I get a chance, I will if I can mount it and take a photo.

Will that help?

Very nice!

Were you able to do that?

 

[dantimdad]

Unfortunately I haven't done this.

I need to get to a bunch of updates like this but, building my store has taken up most of my time.

 

[Adamantium]

Totally understandable.

I just ordered the hybrid, which should arrive today, and am going to try to get my AI Prime HDs and an A360X hooked up to it. Will report back (might be a few days since I'm in the midst of a move, though).

 

[Adamantium]

Success! It's a little precarious, but I was able to mount the Primes and A360X. Working like a charm.
