来自GHL的Mitras和来自Ecotech Marine的Radion XR30W Pro是有史以来为严重的礁石水族馆业余爱好者制作的两个最先进的LED灯。尽管GHL在为Aquiairums制造电子产品方面具有丰富的经验，这是他们的第一个LED灯，同样，Ecotech Marine已将其Radion XR30W LED发布到水族馆市场仅一年，然后将其旗舰灯提高到职业地位。
Between them the Mitras and Radion Pro have wireless controllability, numerous LED colors and channels of control, a sleek profile and a similar footprint. While we can debate the merits of reflectors vs. lenses, specific LED colors and binning and any number of可量化details about the Mitras and Radion Pro, what matters most is how these lights look over a real reef tank. Therefore this comparison is primarily intended to demonstrate how reef fish and corals look under the Mitras and Radion Pro.
Big thanks toAquaticArtof Highlands Ranch Colorado for letting us mix and match high tech LED lights all over their 600 gallon reef aquarium display which is lit primarily with AI Sol LEDs. We began the comparison by using the installed AI Sol Blues as a baseline of LED lighting intensity since these have become a hobby favorite over the last few years. The two shades of blue and royal blue LEDs along with one shade of white has become a go-to standard color ratio, especially for the high tech LED reef lights.
您可以轻松地在Mitras的图像中看到它具有令人难以置信的，有点粉红色的演绎，当所有通道都充分发挥作用时。琥珀色和两种红色的红色确实使红色星球桌，仙女斗篷和消防鱼确实弹出了色彩 - 这是一个真正的意外而令人惊讶的惊喜。另外，由于Mitras LED具有较小的反射器，可以向油箱驱动光，因此储罐的侧面还有更多的光。尽管如此，米特拉斯仍然设法在沙床上传递了100umols的标准价值，经过30英寸的水和6英寸的空气。
相比之下，Radion Pro提供了更集中和更有颜色平衡的LED光。Radion Pro下的礁鱼的颜色看起来更大一点典型的扭曲，即使在Radion Pro中发现了各种LED颜色，Anthias和Firefish看起来也更正常。另一方面，珊瑚的颜色更荧光，更少色, with subtle blues, pinks and orange corals glowing fluorescent in a way that the coral-heads really strive for. Also, with its custom-made lens the Radion Pro managed to penetrate photons deeper into the aquarium with a PAR value of ~160umols on the same spot in the sand described above for the Mitras.
Mitras LED和Radion Pro都是很棒的灯光，但它们的差异并不是它们在水族馆中照亮礁鱼和珊瑚的能力，但是您个人喜欢哪种色谱以及如何控制灯光。如前所述，Ecotech在Rad配置实用程序 / EcoSmart Live平台上已经开发了一年多的发展，而GHL必须立即完成所有工作，并且仍然对其PC软件进行了一些改进。享受这两个爱好者令人兴奋的礁石水族馆的这些初步的并排，并在我们再次进行比较时，请继续关注，以更易于管理。
