Great Lighting... Very Noisy! by Greg

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 5/25/2008 from FRAMINGHAM, MA UNITED STATES

Comments: Previously had an earlier version of this light, but after 5 years it needed replacement. That version tended to run hot which resulted in the CFC lamp sockets to slightly melt. The new version added more ventilation and fewer ballasts so it seemed like it would run cooler. First the good - it runs cooler and the light it throws is great. The night LED's have been increased from 3 to 4 which dramatically improves the tank look since before the middle LED was over the mid support spar blocking it from the tank. Now the bad - the fans have gone from 2 very small on the left (the right was passive) to one 70mm fan on the left (still passive on the right). However this 70mm is fairly loud (probably about 32db) which you can hear from 20 feet away. Worse the way it is mounted causes vibrational noise to be created - this is way worse than the fan noise. The result is noise that you can hear in all adjacent rooms and is really distracting. Since the tank is in the TV room this is a real annoying problem. It seems like they should have had 2 fans (one on either end) running slower (less noise) and should have mounted the fans using vibrational damping (to eliminate vibrational noise). Unless you plan on putting this light in a noisy environment you should seriously worry about the noise level this will introduce into your home. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: This is the second model I have owned of this line. I got this one for the upgraded features like the removable ballast. You can't beat this product for the price. I did have 1 ballast DOA when I received it though so I had to take a star off. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I really enjoy this coral life aqualight and really dig the moon light feature. The only problem I have with this product is the cooling fan as it is quite loud. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Great Upgrade by CRAIG CHESTNUT

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 2/22/2008 from COLUMBIA, SC UNITED STATES

Comments: I had to replace my JBJ PC fixture due to ballast no longer working. This product is designed for easy replacements (bulbs, ballasts, fans). I feel the ballast push more light out of the bulbs that the previous JBJ fixture. This is also my first implementation of moonlights and I have to say that they are totally awesome. I highly recommend this product. Other fixtures may be cheaper, but this one pays in the fact that outside of wiring problems, all parts can be replaced easily (ie without disassembling the fixture). Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
