    LED VS T5, Which do u prefer?

    in Product Reviews

    Posted

    It would be good if future LED fixtures allow customers to pick & choose the kind of colour they want, like on a multi-tube T5 fixture. Then customers can buy & install LED bulbs like "Aquablue Special", "Blue Plus", "Actinic", or "Purple Plus" into their LED fixture like in a T5. Give us the FREEDOM to mix & match to find one's favourite combination.

    If we're able to achieve the coloration this provides, then will LED have a chance to retire T5 in this reefing industry.

    Maxspect LED can replace the LED easily with connectors. As for the new generation Mazarra, the replacement of LED is just 2 screws.....and without any connectors. U can swop LED easily

    LED VS T5, Which do u prefer?

    Both have its pros and cons...

    I have used both..

    T5,

    Pros, Initial setup is cheap and DIY is relatively easy and with the different color temperature you are able to come up with combination that you are going for, the PAR is enough and proven to be able to color up corals and promote corals.

    Cons, Heats is quite high if you are using a lot of tube, Used 10 tubes for my cube tank last time and it is hot!!! Maintenance cost is high as you require to change the tube every 6 - 9 month if not when the spectrum shift, you will have algae problem. High running cost.

    LED,

    Pros, Heat dissipate from the heatsink and not from the bulb itself. Bulb life is very very long. Low running cost compared to other lighting.

    Cons, Initial setup is quite high, DIY is difficult if you have no electronic background, Usage of the LED is too short to prove its ability to sustain corals and also if the bulb will maintain its PAR and spectrum without 5 years.

    This is what I come up with..

    Currently building a light set with have a LED and T5 combo. Having a higher watts White LED to have the rippling effect of MH and the beautiful color of T5. Also including fans, controller and moonlight as well.

    Personally, T5 have nicer colorations.....but not forgeting, LED have more color options too....

    i spend,

    $200 x 3 for the titanium coils.

    $45 x 3 for controllers.

    $420 for 2nd hand compressor with installation.

    $250 x 3 for installing the pipings

    so total = $600 + $135 + $420 + $750

    = $1905

    So $1905 is for 3 systems of 0.75 hp chiller.

    i got a used Daikin compressor for anyone who wish to DIY.....selling at SGD120 /cash n carry
