luner lights??

batesdc · 07/28/2006, 04:10 AM

My luner lights quick working. I rang the wires and their was no short! I checked the luner light sockets for voltage and one receptical was 1.5v and the other was 1v, this i found to be odd! But to me it seems that their is enough power to light up the luner lights? The only other thing that i can think of is that the luner LED's burnt out? But i thought that wasnt possible any other help would be greatly appriciated! Also do i need the luner lights for a succesfull reef tank? as im new to the SW world but loving it so! Also does anybody have a contact phone # to Current-USA all im able to get is a email and they havent responded yet! Thanks for the time and help in advance!!!...Chris

Mine didn't totally quit, but got real dim after a year, I went to radio shack and bought new LED's and that did the trick. I have a feeling that they have too many amps going to them, but I am too lazy to check it. i fhtese ones don't last any longer I will put resistors inline next time to reduce the amps going to the LED's

BTW it is real easy, and cheap to replace the LEDs

Edit: Mine is a current light also.

Thanks for the input! I ordered the moon lights as current-usa wasnt much help!

Not at all. The only function they serve is to make you say "cool look at the pretty blue lights".
