I have these lights on my two aquariums and wanted shades for them, but did not like what was available online as they were too square. I modeled a 3 sided angled shade and 3d printed them for my own use, but wanted to see if there was any interest from others on some shades.

$20 per shade and free shipping, printed in black.

Hi there !
I'm restarting the hobby with a new tank and am planning to reuse my 3 RS90 on a 150 cm tank (Red Sea Peninsula) - still LOVE these lights.
This time I will use a pendant instead of the arm (wife acceptance factor).

I've seen this : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100...me.productList_2010067829453.1005001838684489

- Do you think I should use the 120cm pendant or 160 cm ?
- Do you know what is the maximum height of the adjustable hangkit ? I have a pretty height ceiling.
- I am not sure I've kept the other part of the RS90, I just have the arm and the RS90 leds, do I need to rebuy some spare part of everything will come with the kit ?
- I've seen the upgrade cost from controller to Wifi is 50, where as the price for the new RL90 is 135... Pretty hesitant to do this upgrade. Any thoughts ?

thanks a lot for your support!

technically, there is no different.
I suggest 160cm. it is little longer than tank, looks profect.
2 pcs light on 1 pendant and the 3nd on the other.

- Do you know what is the maximum height of the adjustable hangkit ? I have a pretty height ceiling.
60cm normally
please you can also ask saler give you some hang-cord FREE to extend the length if not enouth.
Please is 120cm length engouth ? 12 pcs you need..
Ask FREE , I can sure you get it . :)

--do I need to rebuy some spare part of everything will come with the kit ?
--I am not sure I've kept the other part of the RS90
There is no any spare part need to rebuy. only the pandent.
please Keep the "L" board which is black and connect the light and arm.

- I've seen the upgrade cost from controller to Wifi is 50, where as the price for the new RL90 is 135
If your tank is near your home WiFi router. I suggest "update". there are more functions.
I guess the price of 50 is because shipping cost.
Please tell her you want pendant and wifi shipping togeter, and try $20/pcs for each module. :)

Would please help show us some pictures how pendant looks on your tank after you install them.

BTW, Seems you remove the cover of the fan.

Please think about the speed of the fan, and If something falls on the fan, it immediately damages the fan.

It’s temporary. Will be designing a cover that will accept a larger, quieter fan. I have 4 of them and my desk is right next to it. While I don’t mind it when I am viewing my aquarium, while I am working and on conference calls I would prefer them to be silent. I have a preset in the app that will reduce the lights to a silent setting while on a call and resume SPS preset right after.

I've just bought 3 RL60s and I have to say, the rendering is top-notch, the adjustment easy. I have 3 on a 30x17x15 tray for good distribution. They are in the highest position and set at 60% for blue. I get about 300 PAR at 15 cm below the surface. The only drawback is the noise from the fans, which run continuously... If anyone has a reference for replacement fans, I'd love it!

Thanks

I just want to give a huge thank you to Oliver for helping me with a problem with my lights last night. Yesterday one of my RL90s died, and after I did some quick troubleshooting I determined it was the light and not the power supply. I reached out to Oliver and he was extremely helpful in determining the problem and helping me fix it (and helping me understand why the problem occurred in the first place). He'd definitely someone who cares about the quality of the product and it shows. Thank you Oliver!
