Dimmable T5 Fixtures and Controller

[Aquatics Elite]

Sfiligoi has now developed dimmable T5 fixtures in multiple wattages. Confirmed are 39w and 54w models and currently only in the Euro voltage ballasts. I expect more info soon into the availability of all wattage fixtures and as well compatibility with North American standards.

Here are some photos:

Hi Tim,

Any idea if this option will be available to add to an existing fixture or does it only come with a new unit? Thanks.

It will only be available as a new fixture. The reason is the dimmable ballasts equipped in the fixture are in the Euro voltage. There will also be a voltage converter installed on the power line which can only be installed at the factory so, unfortunately, this upgrade can not be done by the consumer to their existing fixtures. Sorry

I dont foresee pricing being to extreme. I have personally priced these dimmable ballasts and while they are just over 2-2.5x the price of standard ballasts, there is nothing in the fixture that really differs from a standard T5 fixture. Except maybe for the need to purchase the controller I suppose.

any news?

We will have prices some time within the week. We are working on not only prices but configuration options and creating multiple module sets in order to make these units very affordable to the consumer. There will be options to the end user such as intensity of Led's and RGB version in order to cater to everyone's need. I will advise as soon as I have pricing. Availability will be almost immediate.
