Light Source Technology | Reef aquariums, planted tanks | Industry Standard: Basic LEDs (50,000-hour lifespan) Our Base: SMD LEDs (100,000-hour lifespan) Our Advanced: COB LEDs (120,000-hour lifespan) | ▲ Energy efficiency improves with SMD/COB tech. ▲ Longer lifespan reduces replacement costs. | Industry Standard: Lower light output for demanding setups. |
Color Temperature Options | Freshwater vs. saltwater tanks | Industry Standard: Fixed blue/white (6,500K) Our Base: Blue/white adjustable (6,000K–10,000K) Our Advanced: Full spectrum (2,000K–20,000K) | ▲ Advanced allows coral growth optimization. ▲ Base suits general tank needs. | Industry Standard: Limited to basic colors for specialized tanks. |
IP Water Resistance Rating | High-humidity environments | Industry Standard: IP65 (splash-proof) Our Base: IP65 (splash-proof) Our Advanced: IP68 (submersible up to 1m) | ▲ Advanced safe for accidental tank overflow. ▲ Base meets basic waterproofing needs. | Advanced may be overkill for low-humidity setups. |
Material Construction | Durability in aquatic environments | Industry Standard: Plastic (1.2mm thickness) Our Base: Aluminum (2mm, ASTM E84 fire-rated) Our Advanced: Aerospace-grade aluminum (3mm, corrosion-resistant) | ▲ Aluminum resists corrosion better than plastic. ▲ Advanced withstands extreme conditions. | Plastic cheaper but less durable. |
Warranty Period | Long-term investment planning | Industry Standard: 6 months Our Base: 1 year Our Advanced: 2 years | ▲ Extended warranty reduces replacement costs. ▲ Reflects product reliability. | Shorter warranties may indicate lower quality. |
Installation Flexibility | Custom tank setups | Industry Standard: Fixed mounting Our Base: 2 modes (clamp/hanging) Our Advanced: 3 modes (clamp/hanging/magnetic) | ▲ Advanced suits DIY tanks with unique shapes. ▲ Base covers most standard tanks. | Fixed mounting limits customization. |
