New Custom Mounting Brackes for Aqua Illuminations LEDs and EcoTech Radion

[The Grizz]

I guess I should jump in here for a few answers to a couple questions if you don't mind Martin.

First , we have made the mount bracket for the light so it would be dead center of your tank provided you supply the proper measurements. If needed you can move the light forward or back 1".

Second, if we make the light bracket adjustable it might damage the paint causing it to rust eventually. We wanted to keep them simple to build with just a few supplied measurements & keep the cost the same for simplicity.

More customized brackets could be available but cost would be a little more, but Martin & I have not really discussed how to handle that situation yet.

TESTIMONIAL!

This is a great mount, I love the fact that I can raise it out of the way to tinker with things, and that it allows me to hide all the cables. Greg did an awesome job on this, and I highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a nice clean way to mount their leds. its a great price too, as you will pay close to $90 for the mounting rails and suspension kits combined, and that kit doesnt allow for any cable managment.

Congrats Martin on a great new product, and to Greg as well, for perfecting the design

Hello, I'm interested in purchasing one of these, however, my LEDs are not any of the fixtures your bracket supports but I do see a hanging kit option. How does this hanging kit attach to the arm, may I ask?

Martin is in sunny Mexico so I will answer your question.

These brackets do not use the hanging kit at all, they attach directly to the fixture to make it a solid mount. What kind of fixture do you have? How does the hanging kit attach to your fixture?

I just bought a new Nano-box-reef 12" fixture from Dave and it has two attachments for hanging wires. I don't think I can (or really want to) drill holes in the casing to attach to the bracket.

it looks like this:


but with wires already on the silver attachments.

If it doesn't use the hanging kit at all, why does the website have a hanging kit option for the bracket type?

Thanks.

do the hanging screws screw out? or are there any threads on them?

The hanging screws do screw out and the holes are tapped. I know what you're thinking though and it wouldn't work because the electrical wire runs directly in between the two holes and would obstruct the metal plate used to attach to the fixture.
