I did this yesterday just playing around. This is with ch.1 at 100%, ch.2 75% and the leds at 65%. 24" deep tank with my 48" 8 bulb Powermodule 8" above the tank.

Took some par measurements today. Very good numbers from the ATi fixture (not surprising though)

Par readings (100% on T5s and LEDs)
All powerheads were turned off

ATi Hybrid Powermodule 48” 8 Ts / 3 75w LEDs
8" above the tank, 9" above surface of water

3 LEDs (LEDs set to blue / aqua blue in ATi software)

48” T5s running

B+

Coral Plus

Measurements

Surface in center:
T5: 83 (415 par)
LEDs: 105 (630 par)
All: 191 (1050 par)

8” below water line, center of tank
T5: 83 (415 par)
All: 143 (786 par)

10” below water line, off center below T5s
T5: 64 (320 par)
All: 97 (533 par)

15” below water line, off center below T5s
LEDs: 20 (120 par)
All: 66 (363 par)

10” below water line, front of tank
T5s: 45 (225 par)
All: 68 (374 par)

15” below water line, front of tank
LEDs: 15 (90 par)
All: 55 (302 par)

I'll try and add these figures to a fancy picture a little later.

I'm thinking about getting the 24" 8xT5 Led Powermodule, but would like to get some info from current owners/users. I'm reading conflicting information on whether or not it is required to "burn" the bulbs in for 40-50 hours. Also, does the fixture get really hot to the touch while in operation or just warm? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

flamron · 05/18/2014, 11:11 AM

Burn the bulbs in for best longevity.

My 4 bulb fixture stays cool or slightly warm to the touch at all times.

wheelman76 · 05/18/2014, 10:07 PM

I went to change the program today and the computer won't recognize the controller. Anyone else ever had this problem ? Or know a solution ?

lunner · 05/19/2014, 03:42 PM

You guys have some amazing tanks, especially with lighting provided by these ATI fixtures!

After reading through the entire topic, I will jump in as well (switching back from all LEDs...).

I just need a little push from you guys. For my new SPS tank measuring 47″ x 22.5″ x 20″, should I go with:

36" 2x75W LED & 8x39W - 34.3" x 20.4" x 2.4" (L x W x H)
48" 3x75W LED & 4x54W - 46.2" x 12.0" x 2.4" (L x W x H)
48" 3x75W LED & 8x54W - 46.2" x 20.4" x 2.4" (L x W x H)
I am leaning towards the 8 bulbs for the different T5 combos.

And could anyone with 36" or 48" fixture provide me with the measurement between those mounts?

Thanks in advanced.
Cheers.

ryanrid · 05/20/2014, 04:31 AM

A 3ft with 4 t5 will be sufficient check the manual I posted for mounting sizing

lunner · 05/20/2014, 04:48 AM

Thanks Ryanrid

ReefRockerLive · 05/21/2014, 04:35 AM

Well it has been almost two months since having setup my ATI Hybrid and I must say that the results I've seen in such short time is far better than what I saw with my previous fixture.

Here, let me show you

reefmutt · 05/21/2014, 05:12 AM

Very nice! That's serious growth!

MSHUR · 05/21/2014, 08:17 AM

Impressive !

MikeC120 · 05/21/2014, 08:22 AM

Nice! Congrats on your growth.
Can you share your bulb combo and time schedule.

lunner · 05/21/2014, 08:35 AM

Very nice growth and lovely! Thanks for sharing.

ReefRockerLive, after having the 36" 4T5s units for your 36" x 24" x 18", would you think the 8T5s may be better ?

ReefRockerLive · 05/21/2014, 09:48 AM

Thanks all. I noticed a slight typo in my last post, I was suppose to write "Almost 3 months, not 2"

I have the following combo:
FRONT TO BACK:
ATI Blue+
ATI Coral+
ATI Purple+
ATI Blue+

MikeC120, PM me your email and I can send the program schedule. I don't know how to post a screenshot of my program.

lunner, I am totally satisfied with the 4 bulb unit. The light provides plenty of power for my acros, especially for ones not under the light. 8 bulbs would be too much heat, power, and costly bulb replacement. I'd say the 8 bulb units are more for tanks that are 30" or wider.

Whispers, I just sent out that email. Enjoy

tbone28 · 06/06/2014, 02:18 PM

For you 80w fixture owners, has anyone recieved the retrofit to prevent the acrylic shield from sagging?

I saw this post from reefgeek over on the ATI Fixture thread, which leads me to believe there's finally a solution:

The Powermodule LED hybrid comes with an additional piece bolted to the fixture. It's not a clip, and it isn’t offered currently on any other model. Also after looking at the fixture, I am not sure this could be done as a retro to existing fixtures due to the drilling and tapping of the fixture to mount necessary to mount the piece.

I have passed a message along to ATI as well to see if there are any future plans for a clip type for the device.

cintec · 06/06/2014, 02:27 PM

hey I asked this in the t5 thread but got no reply would the 80w 8bulb 4 led cluster cover a 7ft tank or is 6ft the maximum lenght.
