Reefled 90 spectrum/looks on an Hydra?

[Neliske]

Hey happy reefers,

I've got 3 Hydra 26 HD's and I know there is a AB+ preset made that will recreate the spectrum that the Radion puts out, but yesterday I saw the reefled 90's above a tank and I must say they really give nice light in the tank.
And now I'm wondering, is there a preset (or can somebody make one?) to recreate the light that a reefled 90 puts out?

Best regards Niels

Hello!

I have 3 ReedLED 90's above my tank. While the settings are customisable (So we can't really know what was being put out by the lights you saw) some things to note would be:

- They have pre-sets for 15K, 20K and 25K programs
- They only have white and blue diodes (Excepting moonlight)
- All diodes are on a single chip, in the same manner as Kessil's, which combined with the lens can lead to a more uniform shimmer / less disco ball

As such, you can likely just manipulate the white and blue channels in your lights to approximate the output of the ReefLED's, but you still may notice some difference due to the differing technology

ReefLed has a "mixed blue" channel and 8000K white channel..

Start by shutting off red/green and dimming (or shutting off) reg blue.
Should be close to the 12000k spectrum of the 90..

too blue.. dim blues, too white dim white ..
