Thank you for sharing chihiros new product! Maybe light strength improvement may not be so important because we adjust it to suited strength, but the added white elements are the main point. Since I'm using chihiros RGB c2, so curious about added white elements. So I'd like to know how to better adjust white light while adjusting R and G and B lights and how it effects to coloration. Though showing it in video screen would be a bit challenge maybe.

Have 4 wrgb 2 currently (30, 45, 60, 90). The white channel control looks very nice in the pro ... But considering I don't run any of these lamps anywhere near 100% , I don't think the extra price for extra power makes sense unless one has a very deep tank(ie 60cm deep). The wrgb 2 color controls are more than sufficient to find the right balance also. I just wish the app allowed a little bit smarter ways of setting up the curves (ie a list of fixed color points and times for these) but that's not a choice yet :)

I hope for a Chihiros C2 WRGB, the models C2 and the C2 RGB combined in one model. White and RBG Leds with 2000 Lumen. Call it C2 Pro. Also a bigger Version of the C2 would be awesome, a version that is suitable for Aquariums up to a length of 45cm (even 50 cm), this lamp would illuminate a Dennerle Scapers Tank 55 or a 45P. I love the C2 line because they are compact and slim, therefore they require little space above the aquarium.

White channel is perfect (that's what the previous model lacked). I have a wrgb 2 for a smaller tank and I am currently looking for a set of lights for my new 120p tank. I was contemplating going with another Chihiros light but I keep hearing of people having issues with zero support. A new wrgb 2 pro for the new tank would be quite the investment. I would hate to have it die 1-2 years from now with no recourse to get it fixed.

Light looks great! As does most of their product lineup.... Pity their after-sales service is non-existent. Don't bother sending them any questions or complaints you are on your own!! I have two WRGB I lights controlled by Comander4 controllers and recently purchased the Wi-Fi hub to allow me to reset the lights remotely since we experience regular power failures that annoyingly cause the lights to lose their programming. I am however unable to connect the lights to the Wi-Fi hub (although it clearly does pick them up) and just get a message to say that they are not compatible?! No list of compatible products etc. available for the Wi-Fi hub and absolutely no response or assistance from Chihiros. Have a look at the comments on the Wi-Fi hub video and you will see that I am not the only disappointed customer. Perhaps you, or someone here has some answers?! Thanks!

WRGB2Pro 60cm - 287EUR WRGB2 60cm - 232EUR Both from same company. Reasonable... Not a huge price jump for the extra power and features. I wonder if the 'standard' WRGB2 60cm will now get heavily discounted? It probably won't sell at all with a price so close to the superior light? The standard light is still a very good unit and if the price bottoms out below 200EUR it would remain an attractive proposition.

@fortzinsta2986 2 жыл бұрын
@@MJAquascaping what is a siesta
@maluskakrecik 2 жыл бұрын
Siesta is the act of adding a pause in your lighting during day time. I run all my lamps with one or two siesta(mostly 4hours in the morning and 4 in the evening) and it seems to work great, plant growth is fabulous. I don't think the interruption makes much of a change vs the same time continuously. But if you work during the day, it's nice to both enjoy the tank in the morning and the evening.
@maluskakrecik 2 жыл бұрын
Oh and additional point on the Siesta...one of the traditional arguments for it is that plants can only photosynthetisize effectively for a couple hours and then need a pause to rebuild stocks of various enzymes and nutrients. So by doing a pause you augment growth. From my experience I do see pearling both morning and evening, but I don't think it makes significant différences in overall growth

Thanks Maluska. Very insightful. Maybe not a good video for KZfaq since there may not be a big difference between the two in the Vs series but good to know that it does not harm plant growth and potentially may even help

The annoying thing with my WRGB II was when they changed the app, a little while ago. Now you cant change the intensity on a slider. You have to change each colour up or down an amount. It makes it hard to adjust the intensity whilst keeping the colour the same. You cant reference against a overall percentage its max power. Hope that makes sense. I wish they would change it back.

Not sure what numbers you are talking about. The specifications of the WRGG Pro 45cm state 5000lm at 56W or ~89 lm/W. The 90cm version is rated 9250lm at 110W or ~84 lm/W. If you do the calculations for the other lamps you get similar ratios, which means they are using the same LED arrays in these lamps. This efficiency is actually low. Most quality LEDs on the market today have an efficiency of at least 100 lm/W. The LED array of this lamp are very likely being run at ~80% of its maximum power. I suspect the reason for this is the same as before: Chihiros has been using low quality and underpowered power adapters in all their lights, including in the Vivid 2 lights, and therefore cannot run the LED array at full power without issues. In any case, you can find quality LED lights for aquariums outputting 140-180 lm/W. And CREE has several LEDs above 200 lumen per Watt - the current maximum is around 300 lm/W, so there are LEDs on the market above 200 lm/W.

Hi MJ, I am having a WRGB2. The problem I faced with the WRGB2 is that the ramp setting goes out of control when there is power outage. Reason for this is there is no battery cell on the WRGB2 unit and once the power goes off the time memory is lost. When power comes on again the light will not on or even if it gets on it won't go off on time. Everything gets messed up. Have they fixed this issue on WRGB2 pro and have they installed any battery?

@@greysileighty Sorry didn't get you on the first one. Yes if you have a hanging kit for the lights, because the higher you hang it the more it can spread across the sides of the tank. generally people hang it about 20-30cm above the tank. The normal stand will only be able to hold the lights about 10cm above.

Deze video komt precies op tijd. De laatste dagen probeerde ik al uit te vinden wat het verschil is tussen deze twee lampen. Ik was van plan een WRGB II te kopen, maar dat word nu waarschijnlijk toch de PRO versie. Waar zijn deze lampen in Nederlands te koop, ik kan ze tot nu toe alleen bij Amazon vinden?

Azaqua.nl heeft sinds kort Chihiros in het assortiment geloof ik. De Pro zal waarschijnlijk eind deze maand verkrijgbaar zijn

Hi! greetings from Austria! For my new tank im planing 12x50x50 (300 Lieters) or 120x50x57 (330 Lieters) I was thinking about the WRGB for lighting but on the other side and yes I know there is a big price diffrence of the ADA lights. Now I do want to Aquascape so lighting is very importend. Now as I can speak for a lot of people I sadly dont have unlimited fundings so I have to be carful on what I want. What do you think?
@MJAquascaping 2 жыл бұрын
I would still go with the WRGB. ADA lights are nice, but they have no app, no dimmer, nothing.. it's just on and off.

@@MJAquascaping yes. Thats what i Was thinking as well. Or it could be that ADA would make Dimmer lights as well if i wait a bit?
@ampac 2 жыл бұрын
@@davidreinitzer6862 Maybe in a few years... ADA lights are part of a system and they are designed to run at a fixed power to provide what ADA considers the ideal amount of light. Adding a dimmer goes against this idea. The Chihiros lights are a good value for money, but if you pay a bit more for smaller specialized brands you will get higher quality and more power efficiency.

ja posiadam lampe vivid. Mam porównanie z razor r420 i tam światło było bardziej naturalne, vivid bardzo ciepły i cukierkowy. Razor daje światło bardziej słoneczne ale czerwony wyglada mniej atrakcyjnie dla oka

Plants dont care what light you throw at them for growt right ? White or RGB is the same for growt, RGB is more for color reproduction or am I mistaking ? :)

More or less true in my experience, Walstad reproduces scientific data showing mixing cool white and warm works great for aquatic plants, 50 watt outdoor floodlights (they are water resistant) are cheap and effective - give about 100 lumens for a watt at I reckon 10-20 times less than the price of these fancy lights, any advantage from these fancy lights is not worth the money. If a manufacturer can pre-set the spectrum for plant growth why change it? If using a built-in or cabinet set-up aesthetics are not an issue.
