Possibly the next generation for the A360.

I’m looking for a great reason to change out the 160’s!
I’ve asked @shiftline to find out more at macna! Anyone else going to macna that can find out full info? We’d all appreciate it!

Awesome!! Keep us updated, I thought I saw they are sponsoring macna, or the official light this year. I’m not really sure? Can’t wait to hear/see more about the new light.

Likewise, I've had nothing but great experiences with Kessil and am super excited they are unveiling a new light the year I go to MACNA.
Same here. I have three a160we’s, all bought used and at different times. The lights have worked flawlessly. I’ve always had kessil led’s, so I am biased. I just don’t know anything else! The shimmer and how easily they are tuned is perfect for me!

I've experimented with some other brands but after using Kessils for 5 years when I see any slight color separation my eye twitches and I go mildly insane. I've been growing sps with great results under them for quite some time now so I'll probably be a Kessil fanboy for as long as I'm in this hobby. However, I wouldn't mind the 360X having integrated wifi like the AP700 but I hope they still let it be compatible with the spectral controller as well.

And how does it feel like, to wake up in the sun
You do not want this running their wifi app software if the AP700 is anything to go by, unless they put a rabbit out of the hat at Macna regarding the software.

I’ve used the ap700 interface, it wasn’t awful but it wasn’t great. I didn’t use it long term to really form an opinion. I like the rotund apex dashboard for my 160’s.
I’d be thrilled if the new light is a 360 upgrade with the colors that ap700 can be tuned to run!

I've only ever used the spectral controller with my lights and I don't mind it at all, only ever seen videos on the AP700 app. What issues have you had with the software/app? I know when it first came out it was only compatible on certain devices but I'm not sure if they have released more versions.

I've been waiting to see what they do next! Between this and hopefully GHL's announcement, I will need another job. I want to move my display lighting down to a frag tank and replace it with something else.
