So that we don't polute Lyn's thread anymore, we (norm and I..and others who want to join) can start laying out a potential DIY complete LED light fixture
random thoughts begin!
I'm thinking of a triple LED set unit
6x 700mA Q5s on one string
3x 700mA Royal Blue + 3x 700mA Blue on another string (to allow for independent control)
or 2x 50/50 for an intensity control (50%, 100%, 50% light cycle)
The third light will be the night light. A single royal blue over the tank. Then on the same driver, do a top lit MCE (4x Q5 die) with a 30deg optic over the middle chamber for a fudge light. Run these on a 350mA driver
Debating on an aio driver like the xitanium (or maybe even a meanwell, but I haven't checked into them much), or DC power to a luxdrive puck with dimmer control who knows )
