Are Ai Blade’s still having problems?

I was planing on purchasing one or two to use as lighting for my 20cube but I’ve seen a few posts where they only shine white light on one side. Has this been fixed and/or is Ecotech doing anything as far as replacements? Thanks!

I saw a lot of these threads pop up in early '23 but have not seen as many in the last 6-8 months. I did see one thread about someone experiencing this issue with an AI Blade they received in their Hello Reef package. I purchased both grow and glow in early '24 and they came sans issue

Supposedly it was addressed

Maybe look into the Quata light bars - Luca has a new bar coming out in September !!!!!

Love my AI blades! Have two over an Innovative Marine 40 tall. The light spread is amazing and no light leaking a glaring when looking at the tank!

I have two grows, as I do like a more white look and balanced color presentation, but I do plan on adding one glow to bring in a bit more “glow” while keeping the whites.

AI did have to replace both of mine, as they did have the unbalanced lighting as you speak, but that was about a year ago so I’m guessing they have all the inventory updated by now.
