近年来,我们的礁石水族馆的LED灯变得非常非常好,我们已经看到了各种各样的水族馆公司的出色产品。尽管这些固定装置中的大多数都在类似的蓝图和设计上融合了它们的外观和功能,但Sirius XTC LED Hearkens回到了其中最好的时代。
The roughly 12 by 12 inch footprint of the Sirius XTC is stuffed with full sized LEDs, all of which are paired up with strongly focused secondary lenses. A total of 47 LEDs provide up to 200 watts of total power, with a nice balance of blue, royal blue and white LEDs for primary lighting, and another seven large RGB clusters for fine color control. A pair of near-UV LEDs and a couple deep reds help to round out both ends of the color rendition in the visible spectrum.
大型铝框架using of the Sirius XTC offers a degree of passive cooling but if that’s not enough, a built-in fan runs at a variable speed to keep the fixture cool and quiet. A familiar style built-in controller display allows users to control the various color channels, and to program them for typical sunrise and sunset functions.
The Sirius XTC is the flagship of Reef LED Lights’ product catalog, offering PAR values over 2600 umols at 12 inches, and more than 600 umols at 24 inches. The Sirius XTC is compatible with 80/20 aluminum for a highly versatile mounting landscape. 200 watts is a lot of power for 47 discrete LEDs, and pretty good value for the $785 to $795 retail price, but it’s also going head to head with some pretty great lights that many reefers are already familiar with and love.
Rather than cave to the mainstream way of doing LED lights, the Sirius XTC retains all the modularity and functions of the ultimate light you might build for yourself. Reef LED Lights’ approach to aquarium lighting, and the Sirius XTC particularly, very much reminds us of the DIY and Linux culture we have in computers today.
It is in stark contrast with the mass-produced laptops and PCs telling us how we应该用电脑。这种水族馆LED照明的方法是否吸引您是一个意见问题,但是至少在Sirius XTC固定装置中,我们都有更多的选择。[[Reef LED Lights]
