Hi,
I have a quite old Led Bars (8 years).
Everything is ok and the SPS are growing well.
I recently bought a seneye reef parmeter and my PAR readings are very good (between 250 and 350) despite the fact the bars are used at 70% for a while. This means I can increase the intensity if the overall PAR decreases.

Does it mean that I can still keep my leds for a while? What could be a reason to change them?

Thanks

Thanks.
A quantum meter + working Leds = bad business for led manufacturers :)
I think I can keep my led bars 8 more years.
