FURTHER DESCRIPTION

The spotlights have an active-passive cooling system: the patented aluminium heat sink provides the necessary heat dissipation passively, while a quiet magnetic fan cools actively.
A radiator that is housed too tightly will lead to insufficient cooling and overheating, resulting in a shortened service life. A heavily dusty environment can also lead to a shortened service life.


Comparison values of conventional HQL lamps:

80W = approx. 3200-3800lm*.
125W = approx. 5000-6000lm*
150W = approx. 7000-7500lm*
250W = approx. 10000-12000lm* *Depending on manufacturer, light colour

*Depending on manufacturer, light colour, etc.

The actual usable luminous flux is much lower, however, because HQL lamps have to produce a higher lumen value so that the reflector of the luminaire can use this luminous flux to bring enough light into the aquarium. The rest is loss. Moreover, the remaining somewhat higher luminous flux of HQL lamps is used up within a few operating hours, because HQL lamps lose their luminosity very quickly.
The LEDs of our LED lamps work with focused lenses 60-120° beam angle, so losses are reduced to an absolute minimum!

Ich habe mir 3 Lampen als Ersatz

Ich habe mir 3 Lampen als Ersatz für meine veralteten HQL-Leuchten über einem 70 cm hohen und 240 cm breitem Pflanzenbecken bestellt und bin damit sehr zufrieden. Nach ca. 3 Wochen kann man schon einen sehr guten Pflanzenwuchs feststellen. Bei der Lieferung war leider ein Reflektor schadhaft. Nach einem kurzen Telefonat und einer E-Mail mit Bild wurde anstandslos ein neuer Reflektor zugeschickt.

Eine sehr gute LED Hängelampe

Sehr schöne Hängelampe, LED machen gutes Licht mit gutem Farbspektrum und auch die Helligkeit ist gut . Der Lüfter ist relativ leise und stört mich überhaupt nicht . Im Schlafzimmer wäre es etwas anderes , aber so.... alles gut . Auch wurden gute Materialien eingesetzt , somit fühlt sie sich wertig an . Das einzigste , was ich bemängeln könnte , wären die recht mini kleinen Schrauben , die man lösen muß ,um die Linse in die Lampe zu schrauben , aber das hat auch geklappt und ist klagen ,auf hohem Niveau !!

empfehlenswert, bin froh, dieses Produkt gefunden zu haben.

Ist als Ersatz für Presslein HQL125, die 75W Variante ergibt helles Licht mit schönen Farben. An das Geräusch des Lüftermotors muss man sich gewöhnen (ich habe 2 Lampen - daher auch 2 Lüftermotoren). Da ich mein Aquarium offen betreibe, war mir die Variante zum Hängen sehr wichtig.

Leiser Lüfter Helles und Gutes Licht Aber die

Leiser Lüfter Helles und Gutes Licht Aber die Schrauben zur Befestigung von Schirm und Linse sind zu kurz.Ca 2mm Länger und sie hätten gepasst. Ich habe mir im Baumarkt längere besorgt.

Flexbeam Plant Mix

Im Januar 2018 bestellte ich mir 2x die Flexbeam 75W Strahler für mein 600L Becken. Die Beratung und der Versand waren sehr gut und schnell. Vor kurzem gab einer der Strahler den Geist auf... Led Aquaristik angeschrieben, sehr schnell eine Antwort erhalten, Strahler eingeschickt, und wieder sehr schnell eine Meldung zum Fehler erhalten. Grund war starker Staubbefall auf der Platine was zum Defekt des Chips geführt hat, was nach 4 Jahren 12h/7 Tage auch mal passieren kann. Daraufhin gab ich die Reperatur in Auftrag, die ich als erstaunlich günstig betrachtete. Ratz fatz war der Strahler wieder funktionsfähig bei mir Zuhause. Lange Rede kurzer Sinn, ich werde wieder bei Ledaquaristik bestellen und empfehle den Shop zu 100% weiter. Solch eine Kundenorientierung, die man leider nicht mehr allzu oft spürt, muß einfach belohnt werden. Lg Daniel
