Maxspect g2 led fixtures now available

[Eric@LI]

Just wanted to chime in, the so called wall mounts or tank mounts will not be included but are available for the 110 and 160 units. I'm not sure on the cost just yet but will guess about 35.00 for a set. The larger units will not have these mounts available at this time. (170 & 230)\

Thanks
Eric

On the fish-street web site it says that they recommend changing all the 3W LEDs after 30mos and the 30W bulbs after 18mos for the Maxspect G2 fixtures. Is this actually the case or are they just trying to sell more product? Other LED fixtures claim 60,000 hours of use from their bulbs or is this just hype and they actually should be changed out every 30mos as well? I'm not sure how much anyone knows about this product but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

LED's like any other light have an optimal operating time.
The replacment time frame is true and is meant to keep the
lights operating at their best. Other companies with long burn
listings aren't lying, the lights will burn for that long; but the
output will not be at optimal. All lamps will burn longer than they
are useful to the corals in your tank. Optimal range is for the health
and well being of your tank and even replacing your lamps
at the recomended time frame is still more life, less power
useage and cheaper than with halide, T5 and VHO lamps.
You can see the life chart at maxspectcanada.com
although the site is up it is not yet available for orders.
Please direct your orders to the reef shoppe at this time.
We at LI want you to support your LFS and will be taking orders
for those that don't have access to the product through a LFS.
