How are we doing, Reefers?
It’s been the longest 2.5 weeks.(only the longest due to my patience lol) I finally received my @Orphek upgrade kit.
I upgraded my v4 with the icon upgrade kit. Pretty neat how you can do that. The spectrum this light puts off and serious amount of par you can achieve with the Orphek’s blow my mind.
corals look absolutely amazing under it.
one thing I’ve noticed is that after the light reaches under 30% power the cooling fans are no longer in use. If you know Orphek you know they are the only light out there that does a complete lunar phase that lasts throughout the night.
so as you can see from what I’ve said above. I’m a very happy camper. BUT there’s one issue. Once my light goes into the lunar phase and the fans kick off….my light overheats. It reached 140° and kept climbing. The app sent me a notification that the light was too hot. So I ran over and unplugged it. There’s no temp issues throughout the day because the fans are on. Has anybody else had this issue? If so what did you do. I’m starting to think I need to put the light on an outlet timer to cut it off.
