Comparison between the black boxes and the OR lights

New lights are on!

Here is a FTS new OR T247 on the right, the old black box on the left

T247
Blue channel at 30%
White channel at 10%

Black box
Blue channel at 100%
White channel at 70-80ish %








And FTS with both OR light installed running at the same 30/10 intensity levels



I plan to increase the intensity levels up over the next week or so.

These lights run MUCH quieter than my old black boxes.

They are not near as heavy as the black boxes which gives me piece of mind on too much weight the the back glass was supporting with the radion mounts i'm using.
 
Wow the color is a lot nicer. I have had my new lights in now for 3 months now and I and still acclimating the tank
 
The light spread is a lot better with the 4 separate LED squares.

What intensity are you aiming for?

With the lights I have my goal is 50% I have a lot of color range so I would run my blues up around 75% and white about 25% with my greens and read at about 10%
