Kessil A360WE Wide Angle Dimmable Aquarium CONTROLLER READY Tuna Blue 90 Watt LED (New E Series)
The Kessil A360W E Wide Angle Dimmable Aquarium CONTROLLER READY Tuna Blue 90 Watt LED (New E Series) is approximately 25% brighter than the Kessil A360W, but uses the exact same amount of wattage.The Kessil A360WE takes the A350W one step further. The A360WE is controller ready and designed for use with the Neptune Apex Controller (the Apex Jr. & Apex Lite will require the VDM Module) and the ReefKeeper Controller (with the ALC Module). With the A360WE and a Neptune Apex Controller (with a the Kessil Apex Controller Cable) or a ReefKeeper Controller (with a Kessil ReefKeeper Controller Cable) you can control both the intensity and the color temperature of the Kessil A360WE. This will require two control channels on the Apex. Kessil A360WEs can then be daisy-chained together (with the Kessil Daisy-Chain Cable) and controlled from a single Apex Controller.Multiple Kessil A360WEs can be controlled with a single Apex Controller-two channels are required for each Kessil controlled. Future versions of the Apex Controller software will add functionality to the Kessil A360WE. An example of this added functionality is a more gradual dimming and color shift.Even without using the Apex Controller, the A360WE improves on the A350W The A360WE is brighter than the A350W. The A350W loses intensity when you turn down the blue or white intensity knobs. The A360WE is 55% brighter when just using either the blue or white LEDs. When all the LEDs are on full the A360W is 25% brighter than the A350W.The A360WE still has the two knobs, just like the A350W. But instead of one knob controlling the blue LEDs and the second knob controlling the white LEDs, one knob is used to control overall intensity and the other knob the blue/white LED spectrum mix. You can tune a preferred color within the spectral range thousands of research and testing hours determined to be the optimal spectral points.
