Maxspect Razor Nano

Hey guys, I have an Elos Mini with the stock E-Lite XP and the Elos Tempo timer for dimming capabilities. The tank has been set up for 2-1/2 years and most of the contents were transferred from a BioCube that had been set up a year or two before that. Everything is doing O.K. although nothing is really growing and taking off - everything is just sort of "holding steady".

I have a few heads of Frogspawn and Hammer, some misc. rics and shrooms, a plate, GSP, Monti Cap, misc. palys and zoas.

The E-Lite only has white and blue LEDs. I am eyeing the Maxspect Razor Nano. I cannot find much by way of reviews for this light since it is so new but it looks perfect for the Mini. Any of you guys running it? I am overthinking which color temp to go with - 8k, 10k, or 16k? Looking at the specs, it appears to have more than just white and blue LEDs and it is adjustable in height above the tank. The E-Lite is not and it is only about two inches off the water. As a result, I have had to run the whites way down at 5% and the blues at 10%. I've never had the E-Lite up over 40% since I got it. I'm thinking the Razor will give me more flexibility and adjustment.

Any info on this light? Thanks.

I have the 27", love it. Go with the 16K, you can control the two channels to get the color you want.
