I currently have an Aqua Ultraviolet 15 watt on my 20 gallon, and was looking to upgrade to something that can go in the cabinet. I can't find any info here or on youtube, so I figured I would ask for your recommendations. Looking to keep the wattage 15W or below. Thanks!

TMC Vecton sells a 15w unit. I've been running their 25w unit on a 40g for a year. I'm happy with it.

I forgot that AUV had a different model that can be mounted. I'll probably go with that. The Sicce is too new, and I don't want my tank to be a guineapig for that one.

That TMC one says it has some kind of reflective coating that releases something chemical into the water. I'm not going anywhere near that one.

Yeah, I only have the original version. Not sure if the claim that this newer "Titan" version produces Ozone is accurate. If it does, that could be a very annoying odor.

If you don't mind, there's the Aqua UltraViolet hang on back UV sterializer

I have it on my 40gallon and it seems to be working?
