T5 with LED Combo Lighting Options

Finatik · May 3, 2018

I've been trying to find a "combo light" that will allow me to have both T5s AND LEDs on the same light fixture.

I know about this one from BRS, but it has bad reviews because of the power cords coming out of both ends of the light fixture:

Are there any other T5 / LED light combo units you guys can recommend that have high reviews for quality and reliability, AND good PAR ratings ?

If price is not an issue, you can go with the ATI Power Module.... it's on my list of MUST HAVE's but it's just too darn expensive for me right now.

Other then that, i've been on this hunt before since i love my T5's and do not want to go full LED.... I hope someone can chime in but from all the searching I've done I haven't found one...

Currently i'm running a T5 fixture 4 bulbs, and just have an LED strip next to it... not in one fixture tho

You should look into the ATI LED T5 Wifi Powermodule Hydrid. It comes in different sizes and power. However its on a expensive side.

OUCH !!! Yes... At $1908.00 that is super expensive for one light fixture.

I have an ATI Powermodule WiFi and it’s the nicest light I have ever owned. Oozes quality and utilizes commercial grade components. The power supply alone is the size of a cinderblock lol

But if price to performance is what your going for nothing beats some ai primes in an aquatic life fixture.
