i have an A8's knock off. (don't judge me, I'm on a budget) it is enclosed in a top, the LEDs are 2inch from the surface.
let's say how much I can expect at 12inch underwater.
I know it depends on many things...spectrum...% etc...give me what you got.
I will estimate according to your information.
I'm asking for a miracle or a vague idea... one or the other suits me lol

Too much, lol. No one is going to be able to give you a ballpark, except that it's going to be an incredible amount of par in a very narrow cone. 1100ish?

I know but maybe someone have PAR reading for less than 6inch
or some sort of conversion relation % height etc...

ps: i don't run it at 100%...
