Sunrise/set Simu bar?

Post by DrewPalmer04 »

Any thought about a simulation bar for sunrise/set and lighting? Check out the Prof!ux bar and you'll know what I mean.

This would be a nice "add-on" sale versus me getting some Crees and another meanwell driver ...THEN have to get the expansion module for dimming.

Why not just get a Ecotech Radion instead then?

Oh I forgot you incorporated that into the RA already. I wasn't meaning that I couldn't just get the expansion and another meanwell...but I think people would enjoy this from a business point-of-view for you. It could be a module for an add-on sale. This way people wouldn't have to go buy a radion at the price tag...they could keep their T5s, etc but have a nice sunrise/set for their tanks.

I'm still confused on what you want...
Do you want a light fixture that can do that?
Aqua Illumination and Radions can do that.
You can also do a DIY fixture.
If you are requesting that RA start producing an LED fixture, I think it won't happen.
LED fixture is a market that is not in the interest of Reef Angel at this time.

It would be LED yes. But not a complete fixture. Just accent bars that would be for sunrise /set. Just like what prof!ux offers. The idea is sound bc it's not a fixture. It is an accessory.

I don't think roberto is getting into the business of resale. But if you buy it and controllable, I'm sure he (or one of the other geniuses here) can figure out how to make it do all kinds of crazy effects.

I wasnt meaning resell. I was thinking devolopment. RA could make their own for these simulated effects. Not make another brand's bar work on the RA

oh, I see. I like that RA doesn't try to monopolize on parts like other reef controllers. With some of the other controllers, you HAVE to buy their lunar pods and stuff to run moon cycles. With the RA you could use a ton of different lights on the market to do the same thing and not limit yourself to RA products only.
