This discussion is about the Duo Extreme, which is a high end light. They’re $750, so a little less than Radions. I think the previous poster was joking about stock in the company being cheap.

They compare to the G4 pro, which is another $100, right? Also, doesn’t G4 still require a WiFi Director?

I am excited to see how the mirrored surface impacts the readings. On and off please!

They have 72 diodes (216 watts), so they are more powerful than G4 pros, which have 46 (190 watts). The Duo Deluxe for $650 is more comparable to Radions as they have 48 diodes (lower wattage though at 144 watts).

These have built in WiFi, and I am not sure about Radions.

They sound like a much better product to me.

Let me reiterate - I have no financial interest in any aquarium-related business. My test results tell it like it is!

I'm probably the most technically-challenged person when it comes to WiFi controls. But after a couple of questions, the programming on the ReeFi is a snap. Love it!

Will do!

Nice mix of colors and wattage

I forgot to mention yesterday that the other thing that sold me on these lights was their 3 year warranty!

Not sure where you are located, but I believe there is currently one over a display tank at the Cuttlefish and Corals store in Portland, OR.

EDIT: Oops, now I see you're in GA. They are assembled in Atlanta, so perhaps they'll make an appearance in your neighborhood.

I see you're in west Cobb, I'm just over the line in Paulding, about a mile from Cross Roads.

Based on spread and intensity would a six foot long tank require two or three of theses for coverage.

Yes, these are the Extreme models.

At present, I think two would do it but testing will tell the tale.

But who hangs their lights 3” above the water???

I wouldn't - not with these lights. Too intense. When testing I will hang the lights at a height to achieve a PAR of about 175-200 on the bottom, which of course will increase the spread. Hence I think 2 might do it but if I knew for sure it would save me a lot of time and effort while testing.
