So, I am thinking about picking up one of SBReef''s new lights. Was wondering if anyone has tried them out. Also was wondering what type of spread they have, and what the recommended height is.

The light is going on a 84x24x24, and finally is the $32,000 gold plating a joke?

I know one will not cover the whole tank but I really don't want to drop 700 on the second light untested.

Thanks
 
I don’t have an ultra, but was recently looking at getting a new led. I decided against the ultra, because of how close all of the less are. I was worried about it getting even spread forward and backwards, on an 18” depth.

I ultimately decided on a different led panel.
 
Tank coverage based on ULTRA model (SB Reeflights)
ULTRA 10 - 14" ideal covers up to 18" length. Max tank size (LxDxH) 18x16x30"
ULTRA 22 - 24" ideal covers up to 32" length. Max tank size (LxDxH) 32x24x30"
ULTRA 34 - 36" ideal covers up to 42" length. Max tank size (LxDxH) 42x24x30"
ULTRA 45 - 48" ideal covers up to 60" length. Max tank size (LxDxH) 60x24x30"
ULTRA 57 - 60" ideal covers up to 72" length. Max tank size (LxDxH) 72x24x30"

ULTRA 70 - 72" ideal covers up to 84" length. Max tank size (LxDxH) 84x24x30"

https://sbreeflights.com/sbox-ultra...tml#/51-ultra_anodizing_color-industrial_grey (NOTE: It shows the 57" but bottom right has the list use see above this link) I have a Ultra 45 on a 75g tank.
 
ZERO information available on Spread, Par or Spectrum... even on the webpage when you look at FAQ they reference the spectrum chart "below" then never show anything.
 
I’d go with 2 of the 32” basic ones. I recently got one and am happy with it. I’m not really interested in WiFi or anything like that though. I think 2 would cover your whole tank pretty nicely.
