For those looking for H380 performance with the ability to tune intensity, I have good news for you!
Kessil Announces the New H160 Tuna Flora LED Grow Light
The H160 Tuna Flora grow light is a groundbreaking full spectrum LED grow light featuring
spectrum and intensity control through Kessil logic, allowing for the best possible yield for your
plants or algae.
Richmond, CA - April, 2018 – Kessil Lighting, a leading manufacturer of LED aquarium and
horticulture lighting, is proud to announce the release of the H160 Tuna Flora. Joining the
popular H80 Tuna Flora and H380 Spectral Halo II grow lights, the new H160 Tuna Flora is the
successor to our wildly successful, groundbreaking, and very first Kessil product line, the H150
series.
The H160 Tuna Flora is a 40 watts
fixture featuring the latest and most
efficient patented Dense Matrix LED
technology from Kessil’s parent
company DiCon Fiberoptics, Inc. The
Dense Matrix array delivers powerful
and penetrating light that takes
advantage of our proprietary blend of
spectrum for growing, Tuna Flora. Like
the H80 and H1200 Tuna Flora , the
H160 Tuna Flora features four efficient
spectrums - BLUE, GROW, BLOOM,
RED - in one single fixture, offering the best possible growth and yield in plants and algae. The
light has perfectly blended wavelengths including UV and Infrared (ranging from 380-780 nm),
enhancing photosynthetic efficiency, and is perfect for plants, microalgae, and macroalgae,
making it a great addition to any growing operation or refugium.
The H160 Tuna Flora has intensity and spectrum knobs control, and includes 0-10V external
control, being compatible with both the new H-Series Spectral Controller and the award-winning
A-Series Spectral Controller. The new H-Series controller allows user to take full advantage of
the Tuna Flora spectrums for dedicated grow cycles, mimicking daily light patterns as well as
and seasonal changes through the Auto Mode.
“The H160 integrates the advanced technology and spectrum of the H80 Tuna Flora into the
much loved and classic form factor of the H150 offering more power at an affordable price ”
says David Lowry, Brand Manager at Kessil, “With the advanced technology, unique spectrums,
and innovative features, the H160 Tuna Flora perfectly fills the gap between the H80 and H380
for plant and algae growing.”
I just installed my Growstar yesterday. We will see how it works
We've been experiencing similar problems growing macro algae. Started the refugium off with the H380 because of the BRS videos. Even so, with a 29 gallon refugium, we can't seem to get the production from the macro algae. We gave up on chaeto and switched to sea lettuce (ulva). It's been a little better but even that hasn't seen the kind of results we were expecting.Curious, what were your nutrient levels when you couldn't keep the chaeto? I have a H380 and mustn't have enough nutrient levels (No=12PPM and Ph=0.06/0.08)
No, we did note add iron.Did you add iron? Photoperiod?
Looks like me dreams have been answered in the H160 announcement...nice!Good plan...starting slowly and monitoring and measuring. Shouldn't be any issues running short, other than less PH stability effect.
I'm waiting for them to come out with an adjustable version, since most of their lights have that feature. And with a 10v control line so a controller could adjust the ramp of light. Even the H80 has those features. And/or a medium (H180???) version for smaller fuges.
So how is the h160 growing the chaeto?I'll have a H160 this thursday!
So how is the h160 working out for you?
