more progress

Almost there

 

[JimmyC]

Done!!!!!

They are complete and running. I had one Led die on me but thats because I dropped a bottle of windex on it.... oops no problem I got extras. I also forgot that my original build I was only doing 76 LEDs and I ordered only 80 optics so I just ordered 20 more so I will attach them on later.

Finished product

Ahhh haaaa alll done!!!!!!

 

[JimmyC]

I got dimmers and timers right now til I finish my Arduino software to run them.

So all in all what are you into this build for?

How many hours would you estimate?

I'm thinking of trying this for my new tank. I had sol blues on my 94 gal but I'm upgrading to a 300dd (pick up this weekend YEA!) I'd have to buy 8 fixtures for that which cost way too much.

I like a more 10-14k look and those where very blue anyway.

Great looking build! I like how you tied it together with your canopy.

I'll have to get back to you on the time and money for this build I'll have to tally it all up and thanks for the complement.
