Looking for recommendations for a new light fixture
"Captain Feedback" wrote in message oups.com...
anyway, I bought the Current USA fixture and am pleased with it so far. Seems to be built very well. The fit of and access to the acrylic shield is much better than in other fixtures I've owned in the past, Acrylic shield? That is odd... I would expect UV blocking piece of glass in that place. Especially with double-ended MH bulbs... including the Coralife AquaLight. The fan is slightly noisier than in my AquaLight, but not so much that it bothers me, and is on a separate cord so I can unplug it temporarily if I need to. I think the fan is more efficient than in the AquaLight, too. Is the fan temperature controlled or is it on full speed all the time ? I like the built-in moon lights LEDs. Do you have any control over their brightness ?
