Orphek长期以来一直是LED照明游戏的玩家Atlantik紧凑他们计划在高性能礁LED灯的顶级竞争中竞争。Priced at $749, the Atlantik Compact is aiming to exceed capabilities of the similar high end lights of the same price。
Atlantik Compact已经挂在我的25克立方体上，您可能会记得我对Mame Overflow。It has previously been an LPS-dominated reef but with the new light, my SPS upgrade can begin. I will be comparing growth and color of corals under the Atlantik Compact to a 250w metal halide that is currently installed over my coral grow out tank.
First Impressions:
灯到达非常好的包装；当我打开它时，一切都是安全的。I was happy to see that they wrapped up the light in addition to providing plenty of padding.此外，该盒子上有Orphek的Azure手电筒之一，每个人都在狂欢。
Atlantik紧凑型确实是一个美丽的光。当点燃时，它看起来更像是现代艺术作品，而不是水族馆的光。构建质量看起来很棒，并且悬挂点似乎比许多其他LED固定装置的悬挂点要更加安全。Of course, since it has an acrylic body I would suggest handling it carefully.我注意到顶部有些弹性。That is definitely a weak point, which I hope is addressed in the future.
由于用大量的热量铝设计设计，Atlantik紧凑的光很重。This smaller Atlantik weighs in at seven pounds making it a poor candidate for a tank-mounted system.从好的方面来说，Orphek很友善，可以包括一个四点悬挂式套件。我很满意这个kit because it allowed me to angle the light backward quite easily.这是您在市场上许多坦克座和轨道上看不到的功能。
当然，即使是Atlantik的紧凑型也是我的品脱大小的立方体的过度杀伤。Orphek声称它可以轻松覆盖30英寸的平方，而且看起来很准确。令人惊讶的是，各种各样的LED融合得很好，可产生均匀的光线，几乎没有微光。
该制造商的网站列出了1450umol的最高标准杆，比Ecotech的Radion XR30W Pro的1100索赔高350。不用说，重要的是不要在适应周期中浏览此光。
该灯的更独特功能之一是内置的WiFi功能，我希望看到orphek强调的功能更多。Orphek的网站列出了使用Android平板电脑或电话设置灯光的说明，但目前它们与Apple产品不兼容。
它确实有一些怪癖，我花了多次出厂设置才能使光线与路由器连接。Fortunately, I called Scott Rich and he was happy to walk me through the process.连接到网络后，通过Orphek应用程序控制光线非常简单。I will include more on that in the next article.
As with any new LED light, it will require time to find the optimal settings but I hope to find a good balance between color and growth.Two of the Atlantik Compact’s channels are designed to optimize color while the other two are designed to optimize growth.这似乎是一个明智的计划，但需要一些时间来确定其功效。
In next ninety days, I will run this light through the paces.我将对过去十年来一直是我标准的金属卤化物进行测试。Will the Atlantik Compact inspire me to finally give up my halides? Check back to find out!
