Based on my research it seems that many people that reported issues never cleaned their lights or didn’t have any protection against saltwater. I am running four 360we I bought used for 2+ years and they are just like new to me. Color, intensity, and shimmer are all great.
I clean mine at a minimum once a month at max 2 months. Blow them out with compressed air and wipe them down with a microfiber cloth.

I’ve been running 3 A360’s for over 3 years now. I too came from freshwater, still have a FW 90. I converted a cichlid 125 gallon to salt with Kessil A360s on goosenecks then in February moved them to a 72” 180 mounted in a hood that I built with 2 60” T5 retro’s. Love the LED T5 blend! With an apex I run the T5s for 5 hours while the A360s ramp up to 90% for about 4 hours then back down to mostly blue in the evening, total time 13 hours. I did have to ventilate the Hood with a thermostat controlled fan. Love the A360s, have no regrets. Pictures are above.

Were the mounts for the Kessils 3d printed or sourced for a different application?
