Yes, a hanging kit is sold separately.

Sure, you can add them to a timer or control. The use of an I-device is to take full advantage of it's features.

thanks
Thank you,

But, You didn't really answer my third question.

Can you control them using the Profilux or other controllers that have a 1-10v outlet? (I'm not talking about Iphone or other mobile platforms) I am talking about aquarium controllers like the Profilux or apex.

I would have to ask SB but I would think the only reason to put them behind such a controller would be to turn them on and off via time settings? You would need to use the I-device to cotrol the extra features.


Give me a few hours and I will let you know for sure.


thanks

I would use the controller for the control of the lights. When I connect to my controller via the internet, I want to be able to dim/shut off the lights.

Looking forward to the response.

Thanks.

Not sure I see the point of using an I-device. Most people don't use iphones to run their tank. LEDs should be controllable via a typical aquarium controller such as profilux or apex. I control my Apex remotely via my phone, which is enough.

seems pretty cool to me for those of us that don't have a controller.

But what are you going to do with it? Does the iphone program in lighting profiles? Or do you need to sit in front of your tank to initiate the "thundering" effects? What are "thundering" effects anyway?

To me, it sounds like this is a new manufacturer that built a light that doesn't do much other than thundering/lightning effects, apparently while you sit there with your iphone. What about matching it to sunrise profiles? Building in ramp up /ramp down sequences?
Maybe I'm just not getting it, but I don't see the point (yet).

Do they have advertised PAR profiles for the light? Does it come with a stock controller for those of us that don't have apple products? Lots of questions, not a lot of answers.
