Radion G2将是Ecotech Marine对Radion XR30W的刷新,包括TIR镜头,升级的Cree XTE LED和相当大的价格下跌。介绍一年后,尊贵的Radion LED灯已经达到了第二代标记。Ecotech Marine已经宣布了令人印象深刻的Radion Prowith all of these features and more colors of LEDs and one more channel of control but with the Radion G2 now dropping to $649, discerning reef hobbyists will have to think long and hard about how badly they want those extra LED colors.
The biggest improvements to light output in the second generation Radion is the inclusion of thetir镜头which bumps the light output by at least 30% on average. The other major change to the Radion G2 is the use of XTE LEDs, with higher drive currents and lower forward voltage yet more lumens. Only the white and royal blue LEDs get the XTE makeover but whereas the Radion G1 originally had five royal blues running at 3 watts each, the Radion G2 is loaded up with four diodes running at 5 watts each. Like Clive Bentleymemorably put it“由于电流最大,这使您可以使1705MW的心灵发出455nm的光线(每LED]””。
Gen 2 Rad的完整规格已经在Ecotech的website, and we are told to expect a late November ship date. But what about the current generation Radion G1 you say? Ecotech has been shipping Radion G1 at a small discount for a few weeks now and have suggested a lower retail price of $599 but only while supplies last, at which point the cost of entry for joining the Radion club is going to be $649. We are told that there will be a非常affordable upgrade path for current Radion G1 owners available in the first quarter of 2013, and an additional rebate for people who bought one within the last 30 days. The full details of the upgrade from Radion G1 to Radion G2 will be released forthly.
同时,Radion G2加入了Illumina LEDlights in being the first to stuff top shelf Cree XTE LEDs into theirexisting hardware and proving to us that the fixture and primary components of their LED light, the power supply, drivers, heatsink and software are worthwhile investments through this and future LED upgrades. The first generation Radion G1 still features great performance but the refreshed Radion G2 now delivers more light for even less money, and that’s great news for reefers.
