The amount of UV produced by tubes is much superior and well distributed than diodes, Oreo. Practically speaking LEDs won't make up for the VHOs in the long run.
I know we're not talking about the halides. The video was to illustrate how weak of "UV diodes", practically speaking. Not worthy. Not efficient in reality.
And to bring the main subject of the thread here... There is absolutely no LED that will have the same spectrum AND RESULTS (what everyone should be looking after!) of an actinic VHO, period. The reefbrites are an option, but not an absolute substitute.
I have to go sleep. I gotta work tomorrow.
Good night, Oreo.
