PRO² LED bar PLANT-GROW ✚ POLAR

Next Generation of Lighting with Heat Recovery

Superior Lighting for Aquariums & Terrariums: The PRO² LED Bar
Discover the next level in aquarium and terrarium lighting with our PRO² LED bar. Unlike the standard eco+ version, this double-row LED bar delivers an outstanding light intensity with its dual LED rows. The standout feature? Two distinct light colors per row - each individually controllable and switchable. This not only allows precise light condition control but also mesmerizing daylight simulations.

Specifically Designed for Plant Growth & Vibrant Color Displays
Our groundbreaking PLANT-GROW light color represents a milestone in aquarium lighting. Specifically designed for optimal photosynthesis, it combines the essential light spectra in a single chip, ensuring radiant, uniform illumination. Witness its capability not just in promoting plant growth but also in amplifying the natural vibrant colors of your aquarium. In addition, the POLAR light color provides a natural 7500K white-blue hue, perfect for illuminating Malawis and Tanganjika Cichlids.

Customizable for Every Habitat
Every aquarium and terrarium has unique needs. Depending on size, design, plants, and inhabitants, you can add more PRO² LED bars of the same or different light colors. Get inspired by our light comparison tool that showcases combination possibilities with other light colors in a photo comparison. For additional guidance on optimum habitat lighting, check our FAQ section.

Features:

  • Powerful and Brilliant: High-Power LEDs emit up to 33% more brightness than standard ones, creating a natural shimmer effect on the aquarium floor.
  • Flexible Dimming: Manual or automatic brightness control for captivating day simulations.
  • Sleek and Versatile: Compact profile of 32x18mm; available in 6 lengths ranging from 47-135 cm and 11 color variations.
  • Convincing Quality: Solid aluminum single-piece passive heat sink for optimal heat dissipation and durability.

HEATING WITH LIGHT – Each PRO² LED strip can optionally be used with the innovative heat recovery system, although this is not mandatory. The temperature-optimized aluminum profile also ensures effective passive cooling without this technology. However, with active water cooling, not only is optimal cooling of the LEDs achieved, but the waste heat is also efficiently used to additionally heat the aquarium through heat recovery. This dual function is unique in the industry. For more details and a practical calculator for energy saving, please visit our website.

Tip: Using a dimmer allows gentle regulation of brightness without visible loss in luminosity. This reduces energy consumption and increases the lifespan – effects that can also be achieved through automatic light control or day simulation.

Caution! This product is a waterproof LED bar (IP67), which can also be used inside the aquarium cover to a freshwater tank. The permanent presence of moisture, the build up of dirt or lime deposits can adversely affect the light quality, output and service life of the LED bars. Therefore we recommend that our CleanCovers are used within the aquarium cover. LED bars cool passively by using the surrounding air. Therefore, there must be an adequate circulation of air. As a rule, the openings for cables and hoses in the cover are adequate for this purpose. Further information. Cautionary advice if the product is used in a seawater environment, see FAQ!

When using watter cooling with sea water or deviant fresh water (eg very low PH), we recommend using the TITAN upgrade.

Review with rating of 5 out of 5 stars

Eine tolle Idee!

Ich hatte vorher im Aquarium 4 ECO Leisten im Einsatz. Nach 8-9 Jahren im Einsatz waren die am Ende der Lebensdauer. Ich habe diese daher durch 2 Pro² Leisten ersetzt, und habe gleichzeitig die Aquariumsheizung im Außen Filter durch die Abwärme die Pro² Leisten ersetzt. Zunächst einmal der Wermutstropfen: Ich wünschte mir, dass die Anschluss Leitungen beschriftet wären. So muss man ausprobieren. Ansonsten ging der Umbau extrem problemlos! Und am wichtigsten, nach einen Monat Betrieb ist mein Stromverbrauch um 60kWh gefallen!
