Kinda wonder if they could make the pricing reasonable by getting rid of the “bells and whistles “? Consider that the MHs and T5s we’re replacing are simply tuned to 20k or so and are controlled with a simple on/off timer. After all, once you have a look you like, I can’t see using the cellphone app or playing with the eight separate channels at all. Just give me a g30 tuned to 20k that works with a ramp timer and which doesn’t break the bank!

Do you think I will get more color pop if I go with blue yet turn someon them down for day or more pop not having cyan and getting pro but turning some of the whites down. Or since I only have 36 gallons and 30 inches wide and afraid I may have to turn everything down so much I may get washed out color and be paying all that for not as much pop. Maxspect has cyan and great uv and viloet. Do yall change tax and I wish I knew for sure if I would get two when they come in if I prepay! So I can defiently get the maxspect!

Basically, if you want to skip over the "how we got there" part of the testing and jump straight to the recommended settings you could just focus on the last section of the testing where we change the overall intensity to meet those SPS PAR goals. Each of the tests build on themselves until we get to the end of the video with recommendations for spectrum settings and intensity settings to meet those 200-350 PAR goals. To find the recommended mounting height we set all channels to 100% MAX. By the time we get to the end of the video you'll see that each channel is set differently to achieve a desired spectrum (color) and the entire intensity output is lowered in order to hit those 200-350 PAR ranges.

I really wish I could attempt to offer a specific recommendation for your specific tank size and individual settings. However, it's very difficult to predict the PAR output without testing with a PAR meter.

It's actually far less prominent with the new lens design. Previous models were like a spot light rather than this soft diffused form factor. Because the blending and spread has been improved there is less color separation meaning less disco ball. Actually the dynamic spectrum test shows this pretty well.

In a nutshell does the Pro give a wider range of spectrum and par compared to the Blue, but still the ability to set it to the Radion Blue if thats what you desire? If that is the case then why would you limit yourself with the Blue, especially at the same price point?

amazing but I don't get why so much light is needed - like you would only need 2 XR15s on a 4ft LPS tank and 3 XR15s on SPS (or maybe 2xXR30s if you want really high PAR. Usually BRS tells you exactly what you need but this is overkill - 3 XR30s is like 6 Kessils. Ok so this is for the XR30 and you need to spread them out - I get that and I guess some people have the money but for me a lot of reefers are going to look at this and ask "why are the lights 2x the price of anything else for a 2x2 tank" and the answer is that there is really 2x the light. This throws all the recommendations out for most reefers. Can't wait to see the XR15 guide - I think that will be more realistic. On a 3x2 tank I think one XR30 would make a super clean and cost effective light - so everyone says they are expensive but this way they are probably the best option out there.
@BRStv
@BRStv 4 жыл бұрын
I can totally agree that our reasoning for using three fixtures may not have came through very clearly. As we can see from the data, certainly in that first 1-3yrs or so of a SPS dominated type of tank (I mean sticks everywhere)..two fixtures would seemingly get the job done. It's further down the road and age of the tank where our recommendation for a 3rd light comes into play, when the colonies are so big that shading and shadowing become more of a concern. I don't doubt that when we circle back to the XR15s, we will really start to see the value in using multiple fixtures to achieve similar PAR goals for our SPS example which will also most likely come with a lower price point to get there. ;)

@@BRStv Yeah - I get what you are trying to say. I watch all your videos and you guys consistently come at it from the perspective of providing the best value for reefers (and reefers that see value in different ways). I just think this video goes against that. I forget the exact numbers but I think LPS was down at 25% to provide the right levels of light. I think a lot of reefers are going to say that's a 75% waste. The information is super valuable but I think that's the loudest and it's inconsistent with everything you guys stand for. But I do see these new lights as the best value for money lights on the market - and I understood that from your video but I had to draw links. Like because the spread is so even you don't have to turn the light down because of 1 hotspot. You could say for an LPS tank you'd only really need 2 XR15s. Like an XR15 is equivalent to a Kessil. The XR30 is really specifically designed for SPS growers who want high PAR (over 500) it seems but if you want spread - even for SPS in the 200-350 Par range on a 4ft tank I think 3 x XR15s should be perfect. And I think you missed the opportunity to say "on a tank deeper front to back than 2' which is becoming super popular this XR30 really is the perfect light. The only reason I am making the comment is because I love what you guys do. Can't wait for the XR15 vids

Ecotech customer service has so far been pretty poor. I bought an expensive ecotech radion xr30 gen 5 pro brand new because I thought I was buying a quality product out of the box. I had expensive sps coral needing a high quality light. I set the whole frickin new light up on my tank and spent all the time to get the cables managed well and mounted neatly only to find the light was not working at all. This was a brand new light and Ecotech made it extremely difficult for me to get the light fixed. So now I have a light with potential other problems in it and scratches on it from when the technician was trying to fix the light. This in my opinion is horrible customer service. This company does not look after its customers

I started in this hobby in 1996 with 2x 250w Halides and for the love of them would still be running them today, but they're just too expensive too run. T5 alone just don't do it for me, and have been running radions since first gen, admittedly i wasn't impressed with leds lighting in the beginning, but Ecotech have been evolving, sure these leds are expensive, but that's the price of new tech. And to be fair the G5 is pretty much the same price as the G4 on launch.

How many of us are gonna buy black boxes and solder the radion config in. Lol. In all fairness Radion needs to stop. Almost 1k for a black box spread like Orphek, wifi like AI and black boxes and a recommended spectrum like Kessil. Am I missing what Radion is bringing to the table??

@glennrudolph 4 жыл бұрын
Saint Nova well said. I think they are trying to tick all the boxes that reefers want. Spread, spectrum, par, WiFi. However, black boxes have done this for years (maybe the spectrum is better on the radions, but like you mentioned, just solder the black box). I dunno. I think ecotech missed the brief when it comes to the price.

Agreed, these pack a powerful punch just like their predecessors the G4 and G3. In all fairness for all tests we conducted except for target PAR range testing, these were set to all channels at max which 95% of users won't do. Actually if we look at the capabilities of these XR30s and where we landed on intensity settings for our BRS Recommended spectrum, I'm willing to bet that when we circle around to the XR15 testing we're really going to see a benefit in spread and output using multiple (less costly) fixtures to achieve our same goals for LPS and SPS.

Apparently, Ecotech is nerfing the AI prime & hydra there not Wifi controlled anymore, no PC web access, and etc. Ecotech owns AI why would it be terrible for AI to outcompete Ecotech Radion lights. I'm just going to buy Gen4 Radions and upgrade them to Mobius problem solved.
