Ocean revives or SB Reef lights?

[prfishgirl]

I’m trying to get a feel for what lights I want to grab and it’s between these two.. not sure how much of a difference there is besides a few obvious like the ocean revives from what people tell me once their programmed off at a certain time you can’t turn them back on until the time to come on comes around how true that is Idk. The cheaper SB lights have two cables..
But which light is better in color and growth of corals and how your tank looks under them?

The SB lights are great but when you have a issue their customer service is horrendous to say it as nice as I can. SB lights are just a Chinese black box with a few different color leds.

I like my OR T247s. Grow coral well though I did customize my leds and also added a Bluefish controller for dimming (sunrise and sunset) and the occasional storm lol.

I really like my Ocean Revives. Many locals praise them. They grow anything and I love the blue tint I can achieve with them.
