I'm in. Been building fixtures for years .I believe densely packed lower wattage LED panels with a diffuser that include a wide spectrum (like the Orphek Atlantic), are likely to be the best solution in the future. Even light spread and PAR distribution, even color blending, high efficiency, controllable, long lifespan, etc.
For the life of me, I can’t figure out why no company has made an affordable light like that. LaniLED and LupyLED are ridiculously expensive and I question the LED choices, and the Phillips coral care isn’t widely available and I’d like it to have a wider spectrum like Orphek. Pucks like Kessils and Radions are appealing because they look nice and work pretty well, but we can do better for our corals.
Part of me just wants to get some capitol and invest in building the dang light myself, with help from Dana & whoever...by reefers, for reefers. lol
