AquariumBar – a Long-Life, Low Power Draw LED Light
Source for Aquatic Biota
LEDtronics
has released an LED Light AquariumBar for fish tank aquariums. LED-AquariumBar
is equipped with five LED clusters for maximum light output and can be
used in both marine and freshwater aquariums. Comes in distinctive clamshell
packaging suitable for shelf or hook displays and is packaged with instructions
and everything necessary for immediate product use, by itself or in combination
with other LED-AquariumBars.
Based on LEDtronics LED grow light technology,
the AquariumBar with its broad-spectrum light output supports and enhances
growth and development
of all photosynthesizing aquatic organisms such as plants, algae and
bacteria commonly found in both the fresh and saltwater aquariums. Low
light pollution minimizes interference with an aquarium’s existing "view
lighting". With its QuickStick suction cups, it can be mounted in
any orientation to light an aquarium from the top, sides, back, or even
the bottom of the aquarium (provided a clear glass bottom of the tank
with no gravel or covering). An optional mounting hardware pack is available
for attaching the AquariumBar into popular PC lighting mounting channels.
For the serious aquarist, the AquariumBar provides excellent primary
and supplemental grow lighting for all types of aquatic plants, algae,
corals, and photosynthesizing bacteria. All the AquariumBar's internal
parts are conformal coated with a waterproof sealant that meets military
specifications. A low voltage design means greater operational safety
around wet environments and reduces risks to children and pets. AquariumBar
runs on low energy sources, using 6 to 9 watts per AquariumBar. It uses
about the same energy per light bar as a standard nightlight bulb. Its
cool operating temperature not only prevents unwanted heating of the
aquarium but also eliminates the need for noisy cooling fans. The AquariumBar
provides an improved addition to existing fluorescent white lighting
fixtures used for display.
LED-AquariumBar is 21 inches long and 2.5 inches wide. One 5-cluster
AquariumBar covers 24 inches of aquarium width (parallel to the bar).
The LED-AquariumBar is well suited for marine saltwater aquariums up
to 18 inches deep and freshwater aquariums up to 24 inches deep.
The price of one kit consisting of an LED-AquariumBar with Power Supply
(120 V AC to 12 V DC) and Power Cord is $305.00 each. Quantity discounts
are available.
