Led actinic flashlight

[malira]

Is there another led flashlight besides the orphek azurelight?

HAHAHA, you like the ones you saw at my house.
They are only $40 I believe.

It's sweet, but is it the only one made.

Santa said he'd bring me one.

You will never miss a night on the reef again.

Does it light your corals like actinic lights.

 

[Mirya]

Yup.

It is handy for taking to swaps as well.

I wonder if it's comparable to the orphek? Better or worse!

 

[Orphek Verified Sponsor]

The Orphek is able to be focused in and out unlike the $25 version. This is a key component in making this light more useful in our tanks. By focusing it out into a wide pattern and turning it to low you can softly light your tank after hours. By focusing it into a tight pattern and turning it to high you can shine through other lighting at stores and frag swaps to see the corals fluorescent potential.

I think Orphek holds the upper hand in this

True, but I have now found a lot of blue led flashlights and even a few uv lights.

Anybody try this one (395 nm UV)?

I tried a DIY light. I colored the lens with blue marker. It worked Ok but I won an orphek light in a competition from Diesel. The orphek is phenomenal. I got it in January and I use it so much I've had to replace the batteries and I'm getting ready to again.

Do you know the wavelength of the Orphek by any chance?

I've almost bought one a couple of times but just don't think I would get my money's worth out of it. All the swaps around here, everyone runs blue leds so it is worthless there.

I love looking to my tank at night with it. I found some surprising things that come out at night. Also some things that are there during day the get lost in the daytime light.
