Reef Brite Tech LED vs Reef Brite UVA LED color comparison

[Macropora]

Been using a 36" Reef Brite Tech LED strip for a number of years now. Recently i saw a new UVA strip on the market from Reef Brite so decided to buy it see what the color difference is. I just received the 36" Reef Brite UVA LED strip today and to my eyes the light is not as intense as the Tech which is more blue in color. The UVA has a purple (actinic) overtone. Both of these strip lights run on 30 watts of electricity. I'll put some comparison pics shortly and you be the judge.

Here is a pic of the Tech strip:

Forgot to mention that photos were taken with a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 phone. No adjustments were made. What is stunning is how some of the corals really popped under the UVA strip. If the coral was a neon green color there was really no changes that I could visually see.

Did reefbrite stop making UVA strips?
