New Led Lights

kerrick · Oct 26, 2010

I am new to CRC and just wanted to show some images of my new LED light I built. The lights are Cree XRE (24 white and 24 royal blue). The driver are dim able and will hopefully be hooked up to a reef keeper one day. The frame is all stainless steel. [/ATTACH][/ATTACH]

VERY COOL! Several of us have been looking into making some lights out of the Crees. Please keep us updated on how the LEds work out! More pictures would be great to! And glad you found us. Are you new to the hobby? Tell us alittle about your setup.

I have had my tank for about 10 years now but I could never afford to stock it like I wanted. I have recently started investing into it for corals by upgrading to a Reefdynamics skimmer and these LEDs. The LEDs are replacing 6 t5s and the difference is incredible. The LEDs are a lot brighter and I like the dimming function because it allows for a wide range of light color and intensity.

I'm looking forward to it. I saw some photos of your tank and there's a lot of growth since I saw it last. Looks great. I will keep checking for posts on the next meeting and hopefully it will fit my schedule. Thx.
