My flashlight looks brighter...

PS you're about a week too late :wink:

:lol:.....kinda has a romantic feel

Haha this is taken at the last light before bed on the natural cycle. If I turned it up to over 10% it might have turned out better.

yes but a flashlight "spotlights" as bad as an AI:razz:

Loooove the radions!

lol start the war again!!

:deadhorse:

Radions rock!

reefgirl can you take a pic tomorrow at 100%?

Yeah, sure. I can even take it in red or green. Unlike some other infamous brand.... :mrgreen:

lol twist the knife

ah ha! thats why the "other LED" club guys are so jealous of the "Radion club"......all the reef Girlys love Radion:mrgreen:

For the record you all still fail, my LED light is more powerful, perfect spread and has 7 channels. That's why I figure if you're not going to have the best you might as well get the cheaper option, otherwise you just paid more to loose :mrgreen:

:lol:

More power here too & 6 channels but can upgrade to 8 channels :biggrin: a PERFECT spread over 8' and 7 different LED colors.

its like driving a big truck.....must be overcompensating for some other shortcoming:razz:..... j/k Steve:mrgreen:

don't even think about it Dougster..........:twised:

Coming to a reef site near you....From Ecotech the latest update for your Radion system ..... "1000 and one thoughts for self affirmation" Stop worrying about what others think, what they are saying. Just click on the "I am great" tab and sooth away the fears, ease the stress. Just read one of the thousand reasons to still like yourself and one day you will be able to not feel the need to excessively argue, give reasons why and make constant "we are better" rants to justify your purchase.

If you could add lenses to the radion I'm sure u might get that 6 foot spread.

That's a very expensive flashlight!

Lenses focus light. Not spread it out more

36ft of spread over here :razz:.

Just because I enjoy foiling Marko's AI holy conquest here are some growth shots under 6 radions :razz:.

Got these paly's on 11-03-2011, installed the radions 2 days after this.

2 polyps to 33 polyps, I'm a happy camper.

im sure you could get that kind of growth and spread from a 20 dollars shop light from home depot:razz:

and HEY, i didnt say a word about sols in this thread

Ya... but are shop lights going to give you RANDOM LIGHTING STORMS!
I think not:razz:.

Your mere presence in this thread breaths Sol haha.

Sure you could..you just hire a casual labour guy from one of your local agencies, have him stand beside the light switch and tell him when you say "lightning storm" to start to turn the light switch on and off as fast as possible.

they should send me a couple units for free. im like a living billboard

but if you had Radions more people would buy sols! :rofl:

I am proud of you Marko, AI's all the way! Why don't you guys/gals raise the radion's to the ceiling and you can light up your whole living room with them, put them in demo mode and you can have yourself a rave party. :mrgreen:

Levi, by chance do you have a par meter to take some par reading? I am curious on real life read outs. I am getting a par meter in a couple of days and will post my findings on my build thread.

Unfortunately not, if anyone in Calgary has one and is willing to stop by I have cold beer in the fridge :biggrin:.

Hasn't it been determined that par readings from LEDs are not related to their ability to grow corals?

thats gutsy.....laptop on the tank like that:eek:

Lol your camera adjusts the exposure depending on how much light there is. That's why they all look the same

I was kinda hoping it would fall in. It's a POS.

Ecotech needs to be mac compatible. I'd take mac compatibility over red and green lights any day.

Here's another at 100%. It looks pretty bright when the camera isn't focused on the tank in this shot:

Please excuse the mess under the tank...(I don't mean my child obviously :) )

:lol:

patience grasshopper.....they say its coming:wink:

Too bad radions don't have Bluetooth to wirelessly connect to a computer or smartphone for control. They figured wireless connectivity with pumps was more important

patience grasshopper....thats coming too:wink:
