Yes you can.mine is actually removed but the cable is only about 6” with a plug between. You can make an extension or extend the cable you would be fine.

In the end I just removed it and rotated it to mount differently because I have no room to put it under my stand

I have order 2 noopsyche k7 IV pros to go along side this light. Since the 10000k is the highest bulb rating available you need supplemental blue.

My big tank has some actinic bars and unfortunately I didn’t order enough of them. The cooor isn’t bad but want more

Got my 54g up and going today and as soon as the tank cleared up I grabbed the par meter.

For reference 54g corner tank
315w cmh on 50% setting with 10000k vegelumax bulb- this is a hydroponic light with dimple reflector. Bet it would be much higher with. Good smooth polished reflector

Two noopsyche k7 IV as blue supplemental - no whites

I will turn the halide up to 100% and redo the test to compare but think I will be able to grow whatever I want at 50%. Eb832 shows 208w at 50% setting.
