Custom Designed Canopy

[Daniel Bodily]

Working on a new Canopy. I am taking the design for a dinning room light fixture that I designed 3 years ago. I will replace the LED light with Kessil 360 W and 360 N lights. I have been working with Kessil on the cooling of the lights in the Canopy. Just would like thoughts on the design?

That looks really cool...great idea! Hope it works for you! I wonder how that will effect the light levels at different depths?

That is way I'm thinking of using Kessil lights in BRS 160 kessil 360 light did a great job if getting a good PAR

Any pics of it over the tank? Very Cool!

I think that's gonna look amazing. Put computer fans on the top of the unit to cool it and you'll never see them

that is the plane for cooling the Kessil lights

This is getting more and more exciting. Do you have any plans to install a power strip inside or ontop. Inside would be cool but maybe more heat/fire issue?

 

[Daniel Bodily]

yes there will only be two cords coming form the canopy one for 120 Power and one for the remote controller for the kessil lights

That is so freaking cool, love it!
I'm a finish carpenter by trade, and really enjoy seeing something out of the box creative like that.

Has anyone controlled their Kessil light with a tank controller? I know it is a 0 to 10 Volt input but that control color and intensity. How does it work?

So I'm getting close to finishing the engineering of the canopy
