How are you liking your ATI Powermodule?

Thanks for the tip.
And did you notice this across the span of the tank or just directly under the leds. It doesn't look like those narrow little clusters would do much, but my LFS ran the demo mode with just the LEDs and I was surprised at how they pretty much lit up the entire 4' cube.

At higher power you could probably get away with using only the LEDs on the fixture. The spread is decent because they use reflectors in the LED clusters rather than optics.

Most of the corals higher up and closer to the clusters were unhappy.
 
Thanks for all the feedback. Given this thread is now 2+ years old, everyone still sold on ATI Powermodule?

My tank is 59" X 21" X 21" and my current lighting isn't cutting it (3 X Hydra 26) for my acros. PAR meter confirmed this. Montis are fine, but acros have to be right under the pucks to be super happy.

I am thinking the 60" 4 LED X 4 T5. Anybody with a better idea?

I think you’ll be okay even with the 48” model. Unless you have acros growing edge to edge.
 
I have a 4 bulb 36 inch unit with 2x75 watt Led White powermodule. It sits over my 36x24x24, 90 gallon reef.

It is able to grow sps on the bottom of the tank colours are really lovely. I never touch the schedule. the pic looks blue but that's the phone camera.

I am a customer for life! Best light I ever owned. I have two. One is 8 years old. Runs great!
Bought both new and will always be a customer. I grow acros out of the water with my ATI fixtures. Love it!

Nice! What setting do you use?
 
T5 on minimal ramp 100%for 8hours.
Led ramp to 90% for 10 hours on my own settings to match the SPS+ that radions have.

I always thought those radions settings were designed to match t5s not the other way around.
 
Yeah, do I have tried to copy the radion settings cos I know they are tried tested and work. So far so good.
 
I think the initial issues with the powermodule was from folks who used too much white channel on the LEDs.
 
Switched from radions to ati. Miss the shimmer but corals seem to be loving it

I have similiar sized tank RSR250. Par meter showed 300 to 350 on the sand bed at high settings. Uniformity is excellent also, besides top of water under leds
