Sunbrite LED F-Series Now In Canada ey!

[Reef Supplies]

Hi Aquattro,

You have full control via an iphone/ipad/idevices WiFi application, this includes six channel independent dimming, timers and storm. You program it and the fixture will run that way until you change the program. The idevice app is the only one available for now, but an Android and a web portal will be available in the near future.

For those who do not use I-devices, the lights come with built in six channel manual dimming knobs. So the light is controllable without the app but you can not access the storm mode.

Sunbrite is not a new company. They have been building reef leds since 2008-2009. The first ones out I believe were the SunBrite T10 bulbs with integrated leds. these http://www.sunbritelighting.com/tube.html

Yupp, they ran some par tests, they got Up to 200Par on the bottom of a 65Gal (36"x18x24") tank. Lets put aside all the storms, lighting..and all that jazz and talk about what really matters. Light and how much of it. These things are getting 200 par at the bottom with no optics! They come with Cree XPG 5W LEDS and 3W LEDS. For example, the 48” comes with 20 5W XPE, 44 3W XPE, 4 3W orsam red and 8 1W UV’s. That is a LOT of light for $1000.

I will report back with controller compatibility as soon as I get a reply.

thanks,
Ray

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.

Still not clear on what thunder effects is Does it make loud booming noises?
Also, if you can find a PAR measurement that covers some spread, showing how it measures against the others here...

Man these really piqued my interest. Maybe it is time to try and sell my existing setup. What kind of shipping costs are we dealing with here. I am in Quebec City.

It just flashes of light to mimic a storm, makes for good conversation. Check out the videos I posted.


We do not have those number yet. Once I get them in I will do some par testing myself. With that being said you need to remember that something like the 48" has over 70 leds, so the spread is thought the length of the fixture. You're getting 200 par directly below across 48"'s. The questing is, how much par for and aft.
