Very Disappointed With ATI Lighting

Dace · Jan 29, 2013

Ati Lighting has been promoting their Led T5 Powermodule since May, And 8 months later they still don't have the slightest idea of a release date. I've been holding off for too long now and need a new Light fixture and have given up. I bought 2 Reefbright 48" led Strips that are still new in the cylinder they come in which i was going to sell after hearing about Ati's T5 LED combo, But i'm at the point that if i can buy a good T5 ( and i mean not a so so light fixture)Light fixture I will just add the reef brights and call it a day. Also i would like to thank ATI Lighting for being as smart as to stopping production of the powermodule which is hard to find new now without giving their customers something to replace that product with.
Can you please recommend a T5 Light fixture worth buying.
I'm looking at this LED t5 fixture

Have you checked out Prestige LED's Gamma fixture? It's a T5/LED hybrid. It's pretty awesome. Started by a local chicago guy, Gus. a bunch of IL reefers already own the fixture. the owner is in the process of going back to college full time, so he is in the process of selling the patent and Prestige name to another company, so the fixture should be available for sale soon. I don't own the fixture, but alot of my local reefing friends do and the love it.

+1 almost got that for my dad for Christmas. Awesome fixture! Also have only heard great things about sfiligoi. Fixtures. Also worth noting the leds you have will only add a little supplimentation at best.

ATI still is the best bulbs. So I would suggest an ATI T5HO fixture. I just got a Current Nova Pro but haven't had it long enough to make a recomendation on it. The price was right though!

I agree as I've been wanting to see that fixture. It wouldn't work for my tank since its too small, but I truly believe it will blow all others off the water. Keep the receipts from the LEDs you bought, once the ATI's come out, you will be eyeing them on the corner of your eyes. I agree the wait is completely ********, after all Americas market is probably ATI's main customer base. I see videos on youtube from people using that fixture around the world and its sick the colors are amazing. i think their leds also will be innovative. a
Wait man, I know it sucks but wait another 3 weeks
