After a few days Ive gotten used to the shimmer. I dont find it so annoying but I am still really considering hybrid with t%

Where did you buy them from. I read some where there are imitations. I cant imagine that but defiently concerns me that there must be imitations of radions, kessils, AI ectThanks to the original individuals who were charged with reviewing these lights, I just purchased 3 black on black units and could not be more excited!

Proably too soon but any growth yet? Any change in color? My problem has been both of those with current orbit. I am thinking of ordering two in the next few days. also been looking at other cheaper options and hipagaro has a new one using cree leds and I know that is what AI uses. also found a new one half price by jbj but onlys seems to have blue, white and UV Looks like the pic shows red and green so I dont get it! Also looking into used radion gen4. My plan was to buy new ones until my tank crashed so no possibily now since i have so many corals to replace. I am really racking my brain trying to figure this out! LOLSo ANYWAYS..to get back to the review part....
I just figured out last night how to properly update and set the programs, which is alluded to in the manual but poorly defined. Now it is working exactly as expected.
I am getting used to the shimmer, I'm not quite there but not offended by it anymore.
The light spread is much better than I anticipated, probably due to the lenses covering the LEDs. There is more shadowing than with T5 (as expected) but not as much as I expected and not as much as my other LED fixture (black box). The spread also benefits from the nice adjustments available on the mounting bracket. You can go up and down over 4", and in and out several as well. Seems very well thought out and flexible for different tanks.
Mounting with eurobracing doesnt seem possible with what is supplied, unless someone understands what was supplied better than I do.
I have to say, for the price point its at, combined with the appearance, functionality, ease of use, I believe I would recommend this to anyone looking for an LED fixture who doesnt have the hundreds to spare for one of the high end lights. Its definitely better than my black box, and after playing with it for 2 days, the remote is kinda cool.
I'm going to keep an eye on coral health (and growth) now, as that matters more than anything. I'd be glad to entertain questions or supply pictures if anyone has any.
