From what I hear from a few youtubers, they are dimmable with added dimming switches. Have you tried it?I am not surprised. Those bulbs are pretty darn effective. And likely to beat anything similar at that form factor/watts. I ran an ABI tuna blue, which kicked off rapid coralline growth (and hair algae). I did not like them in the long run though, can't dim them. And in my pico reef (3.7 g) the disco effect was pretty big. Fixed spectrum was also not very enjoyable (may be because I was running kessil on by 29G already). Coraline growth almost stopped after I switched to kessil (and green hair algae) .. now after almost 5 months, coraline is coming back, and algae is very less (not green hair , but the ones that form spots in glass)
I still have two of this type of bulbs,,.. I'll always recommend them if anyone who is on budget.
I would love to make these things dimmable (and probably controllable spectrum as well) , someday
