I’m looking to add a blue reef brite tech strip to my 4 bulb 24” ATI fixture.

I’ve read that with 6 bulb fixtures the LEDs gets washed out. Does anyone have experience with the tech strip on a 4 bulb fixture?

#reefsquad anyone using reefbrite strips?
 
I can't speak specifically to your situation, but I have an 8 bulb T5 fixture that the inner two bulbs were removed and replaced with two RB XHO strips. I ramp the RB's up in the morning until the T5's kick on. The RB's turn off and the process is reversed after the T5's shut off for the day. There is a period of overlap on either end and I can certainly see when the RB's are on at the same time at the T5's. So I wouldn't say they are "washed out" at all.

So not identical to your set up, but thought it may give you some idea.
