Evergrow D120 V2 Released
The New D120 has been released! With new and improved Casing and 90 degree optics included. New larger aluminum heat sink. New Casing allows for better spread with the LEDs being slightly better spaced. Same reliable light in a pretty new case.
They are on their way now and the layout is as follows: Dimmer One:20pcs (460-470 Blue),7pcs (450 Royal Blue) Dimmer Two:8pcs (10-14K White),6pcs (6.5-7.5K Cool White),6pcs (3.5-4.5K Neutral White),2pcs (520 Green), 2pcs (660 Red),4pcs (400-420 UV) http://www.reefsupplycanada.com/d120...ight-16-light/ |
I love the version 1's I have had them now since the end of march and I could no be happier! The colours off my corals are amazing and noticeable growth when compared to the old HOT5 lighting I was running.
Highly recommend these units for anyone wanting to go with LED's but not willing to break the bank. |

Thank you very much for the pictures. They seem very bright at 30%, I am rather surprised.
|
I had them on 50% but I found that they actually bleach out SPS corals really easy and some of my zoas would not open at all
|
Here is a shot of my tank with 2 v1 d120s. I have slowly worked my way to run at around 70% on each chanel. Couldn't get over 50% without bleaching but over time it has gone quite well and colors are great.

strawberry short cake look like strawberry muffin cake. lol
|
Haha, yeah. It seems to want to encrust but not grow up.
|
It cant grow up if it is a SHORTCAKE :-)
|
Haha, it seems that we have no shortage of comedians on the forums :lol:.
In the past 2 weeks i cranked the lights to 100% and the little shortcake has finally decided to reach for the sky. New lights are arriving tomorrow. Can't wait to see how they look in person. Been 2 weeks since last pics and i will post new ones tomorrow when i get new lights up to show some growth from the v1 and the colors of the V2. Since the new ones are here(tomorrow) and we have 6 of the V1 units left. The remaining units will be discounted down to $160/unit until they are gone. |
I'm still playing round with intensity of my it2080. I've grown to really like the unit. Right now I have 15% more white at all times except an hour at dawn and one at dusk. Running the unit at maximum 55% for 6 hours and then the dawn/dusk for a total photo period of 12 hours. Been like that for over a week and my lps are loving it along with some of my sps. It appears my zoas would live at 100% or under a candle light :)
Definitely takes some tinkering to find the right balance but It gives me an excuse to get my hands wet which I'm all for :) |

Or do you just add that on to the existing lighting? |

what brand of LED's are in this?
|
They are made with 3 watt Bridgelux LEDs
|
Got new lights today and put them up. Very impressed with new model and would say due to the addition of lenses and a couple more white LEDs they are about 30-40% brighter.
Here are a few pics (they are hung a little crooked and yes, my glass is dirty). But there is a distinct difference in brightness in tank). I also need to make new brackets for the lights and move them a bit closer together since they spaced the leds out more and have a thinner outside trim and with the way i have it rigged rght now they are not evenly spaced. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...ps90190bb9.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...ps9f355d1c.jpg Coral pics: http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...psd24a7f5a.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...psbef5ddec.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...psfa175275.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...pscc35c2af.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...ps5c644b4b.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...pse5624746.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...psf98fba83.jpg And the little shortcake that is finally growing up a couple weeks time lapsed since last pic: http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d9...ps1a8422f9.jpg |
