Default Radion Gen 2's installed

Got my Radion Gen 2s installed today in my DT where my old Gen 1s were. Because I had the old Gen 1s installed on my DIY rails in my canopy, it was very easy to slide the old ones out, and the new ones in. The form factor is exactly the same.

The new Gen 2s are definitely a lot brighter. I don't have any instruments or even pics to measure or compare, but my estimate would be that the Gen 2s at 70% are brighter than the Gen 1s at 100%

I had ramped the Gen 1s up to 100% recently, so am starting the Gen 2s off at 80 %, so I don't fry any corals.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
