I see that is what they say but I still would like to see PAR measurements. There will be a drop off in intensity off center and PAR may only be good in the middle 10 to 12 inches of the tank. It's a compromise. Try to get wider coverage by skipping optics and you have less penetration and lower PAR at depth. Add optics and you need more emitters to cover the tank.

I really don't understand their layout. I have a 48" array using 80 LEDs spaced over the whole 48" by 15". They have 128 LEDs in their 48" array all clustered down the center. Maybe that's how they get the PAR up without optics; by using so many more LEDS. But they probably could have accomplished the same thing using fewer LEDS spaced more evenly with optics thus using less energy and keeping the cost down a bit.

Personally I would wait to see some independent reviews and PAR measurements before spending that sort of money on this fixture.
