Hi Everyone,
I just purchased a Orphek Atlantik V4 Compact with Orphek Universal mount. Previous light was a Radion G4 pro and while i loved it, I still had shadowing issues. So BRS had a sale on the Orphek and I decided to grab a Compact after reading and hearing the positive reviews. Question on the universal mount if anyone is using one. It says in the manual that you need 10mm glass thickness at a minimum And the Red Sea Max Nano is 8mm. The brackets fit fine and I’m assuming this is for structural. The light per Orphek weighs 7lbs and spread between two mounting brackets is 3.5 lbs per bracket. I’m thinking this is fine and they were more concerned with the 17lb weight of the full size light. Brackets are pretty wide to distribute the weight evenly. What say you my reefers?
