Hi guys, I found these LED lights by accident on takealot, I'm just not sure if they are 12v AC or DC. Rated at 6500k so should be fine for low tech set-ups. They have them in numerous sizes. Just wondered if you guys know anything about the fitting and if it could work. https://www.takealot.com/12v-600mm-utype-led-bar-white/PLID41404637
If it say 12v, it is DC. You will need a 12v power supply. Just a word of advice. If you got breading tanks they are good for lighting the tanks. They will keep plants alive but you will not be able to grow most plants. Pieter
Will moisture impact those types of fittings - they not water proof . Sent from my ALE-L02 using Tapatalk
I suspect that that LED will be fine for growing most plants. I have a 75 cm tank with 20W of LED over it but I only run them at about 50% power. These have a 180 o arc so a lot of the light doesn't go into the tank. With this light the plants show CO2 deficiency, so they have ample light already (pearling when adequate CO2 is supplied). Give these a go. Buy two. If one isn't enough, then run the 2nd one. They would need to go over a cover glass or something else the humidity will cause trouble.
