Dana, is your chart supposed to show the par readings for the ap700? If so at what height is the light from the water. BRS tested the light a couple of weeks ago and their reading were much higher depending on the height of the light. From my experience, I have 3, this light is very powerful. Of course my knowledge of lights is limited, but I killed 7 sps acros.and damaged another 5-6 at a light intensity of 75%. I wouldn’t think a par reading of your maximum of 200, would do this. What am I missing?
The controller allows infinite adjustments from pure red to blue or white. There are nine preprogrammed settings as well. I don't see how it is better than anything else on the market. In fact, the number of options might invite playing around with the spectra produced with the effects on zoox being an unknown.What is this control everyone speaks of that is so much better?

No I haven't and have no interest such control. The ability to control every color from my arm chair has be a detriment rather than an advantage for me with other lights I have. Such adjustability is the reason so many people fail with LEDs in my opinion. I prefer the simplicity of Kessil Logic, which is plenty adjustable for this guy. I'm sure the AP is a great light, I just prefer the simplicity and form factor of the 360.Just curious have you owned the Ap700 and found you like the 360s More and compared them on the same tank? And yes the Kessil WiFi app is fantastic in my opinion very easy to use and great control of the light.
It was too tempting for me to adjust the spectrum and intensity all the time. It was like running a different halide bulb every week. I consider myself a disciplined person, but when it comes to controllable LEDs I can't help myself . Infinite control doesn't make a light better for me.The controller allows infinite adjustments from pure red to blue or white. There are nine preprogrammed settings as well.

In the app it does let you go down to %1 but I notice no difference in brightness from 1% to 10% I'm guessing that first 10% does nothing then after 10% it starts getting brighter. And I've never had an issue with fish getting freaked out when the lights go off or come onDoes the ap700 turn off at 10% like the other models do? I dont want to spook the fish with a sudden off.

I say go for it, but I'm a little bias in my decisionShould i buy it? Or will i regret it?
I was thinking, if par is low as per danas graph, what is the par when ripples are being read. They sort of concentrate light. You know?
Another consideration that I didn't know people to buying 360s... The 160 gets more dark blue at the lowest color setting. The 360 had more of a regular blue overtone at the bluest setting. I would assume that the ap700 is able to get more royal blue like the 160 since you can control the channels
I've owned the 160 and the 360 and imo the 160 is much darker blueIve owned all three kessils. The darkest blue imo has been with the kessil a360. Its possible the ap700 does but at lower intensities. At higher intensities, it appears to be a lighter blue.
Thats a shame because i like the darker blues more.I've owned the 160 and the 360 and imo the 160 is much darker blue
