I have recently returned from China and was at the Lighting City in Guangdong.I saw this at builder, but they could not tell me how much k the light is, how do you know its 10 000k?
I have recently returned from China and was at the Lighting City in Guangdong.
They have absolutely every type of LED known..
Even some of the boxes of lighting units had made in Germany!! haa haa
I came across these units at a manufacturor!!
As far as I know the ones you get at builders are 5000-6500K or any of the lighting distrubutors here (According to some research an Electrician friend of mine did)
I had to order 20ea of these bad boys to get them made in the 10 000k and 14 000K.
We are using the 10 000K for our Developments to replace the 400W MH's!!
The 14 000K... well... that's for a different application
10 000K
Think they might be the first in SA.. not sure!
dallasg was going to import these led's and test the par value to see if we could maybe use them on our tanks, maybe he can shed some light on the subject.
Hi Maj,if you dont mind what is the actual cost of these,i assume u not selling the ones u have.
the light spread on these very narrow hey
we will be eagerly be awaiting your findings...goodluck!Hi Maj,
I am awaiting all the Manufacturors correct tech info as I don't want to make assumptions.
From what I saw They took me into a semi lit room and turned on a 10 000K unit
Believe me, the spread is large and I guess proportionate to a reflector of the same size as an MH.
These units work slightly different to the standard type LED's check the last picture I put up.
Again arriving on my container in the next 2 weeks, I will keep this thread updated on my results compared to my 250W MH's..
They might even be to strong, which then I am going to have to import on the next container the 50W versions.
... Time will tell
Bud, Once I have all the import fees, Transport fees, duties etc I will let you know the 'Plice'Plice?
there are lots of these here in cape towns "china town" but worst is ,the guys selling it doesn know anything about it, the ones i saw on display were rather yellowish which obviously wouldnt be suitable for marine but it is rather bright so good use for backyards etc it even comes in diferent sizes,awsome small ones for nanos, but i wouldn trust it just yet lol, it would grow you an algae garden in no time
Hell ya me tooInteresting. Curious to see the results after a few months.
