Say, in need of some white 4500 and some others... is there a spec for the leds used in the v1, or a good replacement ?? Some of one panel are out or dim, I have soldering and testing skills, figured I might as well try... also noticed many of my blue 450 are dark, sorta burnt looking .... not sure if those can be cleaned or need replacement also...this I noticed when my moonlights are very dim and all 3 blink together on the right side
I have included some shots, one each left and right and a complete with channel 1 on 10.. if anyone has tips...
My tank houses like a bazillion rbta, and some hammer/ frogspawn.. it has been running for close to 20 years now.. I know this light is super old, but not sure what else would work... the v2 pro ?? The newest seems quite expensive for my needs ... my 48 v1 sits on my canopy, with reflectors removed...

Any thoughts, ideas, or feedback would be great... thanks

Hey There!

The V1 used 3watt LEDs of this footprint style:

We have some on hand if you need individual LEDs- they can also be found online from a variety of sources. These are large enough to be soldered by hand, so they are not difficult to replace.
