Now....that is something I can work with..... I like the dimming function too...but have never used it.... Maybe its from lack of concern or whatever....

Cale, I like technology too.... just ask my wife....gets me in trouble too often....

The problem as I see it is all the companies out there that are just slapping all their fixtures together. Many of them are the same junk LEDs over and over. There are a few manufacturing houses in China that are making them for so many people it's not even funny..... Give me a while and I will try to find two examples.....

As for the Orphek....I think they are doing some good rock solid research and manufacturing. They have a light system that produces like no other. Could they use dimming? Sure. They could also integrate it into my Reef keeper Elite....I would LOVE that!!!!!!!

Give me a bit on the examples.....

This is an image I got from the guy in my club. He claims he is manufacturing these but I have seen this same fixture from multiple sources....

What he does is custom specs...... Like so many others. He coordinates through a Chinese company and approves the final product and has to order so many of them to get them....

I have seen his tank. It looks ok. Tons of Corralline but it's all brown and his SPS are doing ok.... He has different versions of this same light on different portions of his tank....

I sent the pics to myself so I didn't have to send him traffic to his site...
