Anyone Ever use Relassy 300W LED
So like the title says anyone ever use this light. I dont need a new light but came across this and wanted to see if anyone ever use it. Seems pretty nice for the price but we all know we get what we pay for. I prefer to stick to AI primes and Hydras but for someone on a budget this may be an...

since you are atm fish only, you might want to consider a cheap "fun" light..
Note it isn't 300 Watts ..
1/2W diodes but at least lensed 90 degrees so it has some punch for deeper tanks..
At $100 each your investment is fairly low..
w/ 3 you sacrifice power for functions as compared to the larger black boxes which honestly are only 120-ish real watts anyways..but not by much.. Est real led watts at 100-ish..
338 1/2W led prob. run at around .3W.. =101W..
ACTUALLY if their hort lights are similar in design:
Sooo .2W each..
People often confuse lensing w/ power..
Example is I have a flashlight here w/ one small LED and at 3ft I get 900LUX..
15PAR.. yea low but it's ONE little diode w/ a very narrow lens..
If I put 335 of those together... well you get the picture..
Biggest catch is the listing of 5000 hours..meaning, if not a misprint.. basically a disposable light..
Really about a year and 1/2..or so.. depending.
check out the thread I posted above..
