DIY Full Spectrun Led Fixture Color Combination

[ravi197699]

Hello reefers,

I am building a fixture for friend of mine and we came up with this color combination. We will be running these led's with LDD-1000h and LDD 700H drivers with Coralux board and controller Storm-X. Please provide your feedback and suggestions and let us know if we have correct color combination. T

Thanks,

Rav

It would help if you listed what led's you are using and the spectrums.

 

[ravi197699]

Below are the the number of leds, type and the spectrum

45 - Deep Blue XP-E - 465-485nm wavelength
13 - Cool White XP-G - 5k - 8k
13 - Neutral White XP-G 3k - 5k
9 - UV - 410-420nm wavelength
4 - Cyan - Phillips Rebel - 490-520nm
5 - Red - Phillips Rebel - 660nm
5 - Green - Cree XP-E - 520-535nm

I would take out 6 of the CW and run 6 Cyan, 6 Red and 6 Green. I would replace the 7 CW's left w 6 Amber. JMO. But I like the layout. 36" Fixture? What optics?

 

[ravi197699]

40" fixture and and someone just told me that red does not pay any part when it comes to growth of corals what is your input on this ?

Check this out. i start also to make one.

CREE XM-L2 Cool White LED

CREE's newest XM-L2 Cool White LED!

XLamp XM-L


High Lumen Output, High Efficacy

XLamp XM-L LEDs offer the unique combination of very high efficacy at very high drive currents, delivering 1000 lumens with 100 lumens-per-watt efficacy at 3 A in a compact, 5-mm x 5-mm footprint. With its breakthrough light output and efficacy, the XM-L LED is designed for very-high-lumen applications such as high-bay, indoor commercial or roadway lighting. The XM-L LED can lower total system cost by reducing the number of LEDs and optics in the system.

Technical Data:
Min. lumens 341 @ 700mA (25 degrees C)
3000mA max. drive current
5,000-8,300K color temperature
125 degree viewing angle (without secondary lens)
Forward voltage 2.85V @350mA, 3.05V @1500mA, 3.3V @3000mA
CREE part number XMLBWT-00-0000-0000U2051
Mounted on 20mm diameter star board, fits our drilled/tapped heatsinks
We recommend combining this LED with the LPC-60-1750 driver for better value

I'm thinking bout building 1 of these for the middle my tank
What u guys think of this multi chip?

 

[beastium]

This looks interesting do you know anyone who's used it

Ditch the uv and red IMO

 

[ravi197699]

Hi Vio do you have any pictures of your fixture progress? If I decide to go with Cree XM-L can I still use the LDD-1000h Drivers to run these and if so then how may XM-L I can run on one 1000H driver?

 

[lnevo]

Ditch the uv and red IMO

Inclusion of uv and red is one of the main differentiators between full spectrum and traditional blue/white fixtures and is what gives better growth and color and why led are getting to the point that they are competing with t5 and mh.

 

[Moneymaks24]

Red and uv gives better growth? I doubt that. It's for looks and IMO it looks too "pink" with red and uv on even 20%. also promotes certain algae growth at least In my tank.

I will fit 48 LED in this Fix. so far i use only one driver , just for test. I try 3 dif. lens, i think i will go w/the one from mid. i clear 120 deg. reflect nice clean light, if u think help, i post more ?! soon i will got back my PAR meter, if u need it. Vio


i now, i need new camera .lol
