I haven't used them yet, but I'm sold on them from what I've read and talking to the owner. We're going to put 8 of them over the tank we're building this summer.
Getting good growth I assume? How is the web interface? Would prefer an app, but doesn't seem available
Someone asked about an app on the FB group the other day, Daniel responded he did web because he doesn't wanna make an app so doesn't look like ittl happen. Unless they take off and the demand is there.
Growth has been better than any led fixture I've had, closest being the DIY full spectrum one I made when the first gen AIs came out. Awesome spread, not getting much shadowing and coloration on corals is great. I run em at about a 12-14k setting in the day and heavy blues towards the beginning and end, with the (ACTUAL) UV spectrum cranked up.
They are super powerful though so rent a par meter because you'll be cooking stuff. Readings in the pic are at roughly 37% output from each fixture. Insane.
I looked on their website about coverage but couldn't find it. Does anyone know what area a Uno 2.0 covers when 9 - 10" above the water?
Could run at least 24x24 with the included 120 degree reflectors. Probably 30x30 with 160, which is no reflectors.

I’m looking to upgrade to an IM 200EXT tank next year and looking to these for my lighting but not sure if I should get the Pro’s or the Duo’s and turn the Duo’s perpendicular. I’m a bit confused because it seems that the Duo’s have less output than the Pro’s.

That’s pretty impressive for only 37% output. Can you share your schedule? I just ordered 3 for my 6’ 120 gallon and looking at settings for the lights.
Definitely a simple schedule, you can make a lot of intervals if you'd like. Ramp up and ramp down periods are on the bottom of each profile, and that's good enough for me.
Growth and color are pretty awesome, and they run cool and are silent. You'll be extremely happy you gave em a chance - congrats on saving $xxxx not going with the big names. Happen to also get a way better light and 3x longer warranty.
