Reefbreeder D120 vs eBay Evergrow

I'm trying to replace one of my 3 LED units that has gone bad. The unit I'm replacing has 30 blues & 25 whites LEDs, no dimming. I'm trying to replicate the blue:white ratio of what I already have while upgrading to a more full spectrum. I don't want a light that is too blue and have narrowed it down to 2 lights. Which one is closer to what I have?

vs

eBay Evergrow

The reefbreeder light has more blue/violet and uses only 13 4500k leds vs the evergrow on eBay using 16 mixed 4500k & 6500k. I can't seem to find good pictures to help decide. Will these lights basically appear the same? I need some opinions on the 2 lights.

And they are both have dimmers so you can control the blue/white mix. BTW they are both made by EverGrow.
