AI Blade Smart LED Strip Freshwater -

Description

Aqua Illumination Extremely Versatile Mounting, Spectrum, and Sizing Options...

Aquarium Lighting, Your Way!

Available in 7 different sizes from 12 to 66 inches Balanced white spectrum with highly tunable kelvin range Mounting solutions for every tank need Cluster group LED diodes with 95-degree spread EdgeFieldTM Optics with even PAR and smooth color mixing Minimal shadowing and natural shimmer Great alone, stacked in parallel, or as supplemental fill lighting IP66 Water Resistance Passive, noiseless cooling Smart control via myAI or Mobius apps Low profile Tank Rest or Mounting Clips included Color Your Way This is far from your typical strip LED!

The Blade maximizes color and efficiency, incorporating exclusive EdgeFieldTM Optics to deliver even PAR, smooth color mixing, exceptional 95 degree spread, and a natural shimmer effect in your aquarium. Its wide-angle and modular cluster LEDs allow light to wrap around high points in your tank to provide a smooth blanket of illumination with minimal shadowing. When you combine 3 or more Blade strips together, the result is shadow elimination and even light distribution comparable to traditional T5 fixtures, but with greater efficiency and at a fraction of the cost! You can also use the Blade with any existing light fixtures as supplemental or fill lighting to enhance light coverage and reduce hotspots. Available Color Spectrums: Coral Grow Coral Glow Refugium Freshwater The Freshwater model features a LED mix that is capable of producing a large number of spectral combinations to fit your tank's needs.

It has a balanced white spectrum, a highly tunable kelvin range, and ample outputs in the Red, Blue, and Green spectrums for plant growth and vivid colors. Each AI Blade LED Strip includes roughly one light cluster group per foot of fixture length. Tight grouping and balanced diode placement contribute to the incredible balance and shimmer that the Blade platform delivers. The Blade Freshwater includes the following 24 diodes per cluster group: 16x Cool White 4x Warm White 2x Red 2x Blue Mount Your Way The AI Blade is designed for a myriad of mounting solutions to satisfy any system.

Choose from a Tank Rest, Elevated Tank Rest, Hanging Kit, Hybrid Mount, or HMS Adapter Arm to find the perfect mounting solution for your set up. Tank Rest - Included with all Blade lights up to 39", this low-profile mount sits directly on top of your tank and extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the fixture. Mounting Clips - Included with all Blade lights over 39", these clips are compatible with the AI HMS Single Arm Mount and HMS Hanging Kit rails. Elevated Tank Rest - An attractive and sturdy tank mount for both rimmed or rimless tanks. The Elevated Tank Rest increases light spread and allows for easier access into the aquarium when compared to the standard Tank Rest.

Hanging Kit - Made from high-quality brushed aluminum with a black finish, the Hanging Kit provides an elegant solution for suspending your Blade above your aquarium. The Hanging Kit also allows you to mount 3, 4, or 6 light bars in parallel for increased coverage and streamlined aesthetics. Hybrid Mount - A mounting solution designed to combine Blade strips with one or more AquaIllumination Hydra or EcoTech Radion pendant fixtures. The best of all worlds, rolled into one! Custom Mounting - If none of the above mounting options suit your fancy, the Blade also includes M8 mounting threads at each end, enabling you to easily create a custom mount with endless possibilities.

Control Your Way The Blade LED can be wirelessly controlled via iOS and Android devices on either the MyAi or the Mobius app. With the app, you can customize your spectrum intensity and set custom schedules for each light, or just select from one of the in-app templates available. Both apps can be downloaded for free on Google Play and the App Store. Each Blade LED also includes onboard controls for cycling through spectrums. Compatible with MXM Neptune Systems, EcoTech Marine, and AquaIllumination have joined forces to bring MXM to life.

Now all your favorite EcoTech and AI pumps and lights can be under the wireless control of Apex & Apex Fusion—the user-friendly, yet powerful, interface you already know and love. No more switching between multiple apps.
