For AI Blade owners who use the mounting clips, can they just be unclipped by expanding them, or are they too stiff and need to slide off the end?

Thanks!

They will expand out. It’s easy too since you have leverage on the side with the cord holder

You can expand, one side has a plastic tab you can push.

They can be unclipped but takes some force. I wouldn't call it easy

FYI, got my AI blades mounted in my canopy. They fit perfectly. For anyone interested in details, they are here and a few later posts:

I’m also very happy with the color choice made: 3 freshwater and 1 coral glow. I’ve not even felt the need to mess with the color mix using the app as it seems pretty good at all channels equal.

Only Glow! Wow that is awesome to hear, so for only had great success with a grow. Right now we're in the process of switching over all our RedSeaLed's on our 950s to 66" blades, 2 grows and 2 glows, not a low cost move but love the look so much.

Still surprised more haven't posted and using these lights. Check this build out, beyond impressive and he is pounding this lights, can't imagine the par
