Color Your Way
This is far from your typical strip LED! The Blade maximizes
color and efficiency, incorporating exclusive
EdgeFieldTM Optics to deliver even PAR, smooth
color mixing, exceptional 95-degree spread, and a natural
shimmer effect in your aquarium. Its wide-angle and modular
cluster LEDs allow light to wrap around high points in your
tank to provide a smooth blanket of illumination with minimal
shadowing. When you combine 3 or more Blade strips together,
the result is shadow elimination and even light distribution
comparable with traditional T5 fixtures, but with greater
efficiency and at a fraction of the cost! You can also use the
Blade with any existing light fixtures as supplemental or fill
lighting to enhance light coverage and reduce hotspots.
Available Color Spectrums:
The Coral Grow model brings a powerful and balanced blue and
white growth spectrum with output in the deep blue through blue
range (400-500nm) to address the photosynthetic needs of
corals. Use the Grow for maximum PAR output per foot, and the
Glow for maximum fluorescence, or mix them together and get
both. Peak performance is best achieved in a 2:1 Grow to Glow
ratio, but one of each is perfectly acceptable when less light
is needed.
Each AI Blade LED Strip includes roughly one light cluster
group per foot of fixture length. Tight grouping and balanced
diode placement contribute to the incredible balance and
shimmer that the Blade platform delivers. The Blade Coral Grow
includes the following 24 diodes per cluster group:
- 12x Royal Blue
- 6x Cool White
- 6x Blue
Mount Your Way
The AI Blade is designed for a myriad of mounting solutions to
satisfy any system. Choose from a Tank Rest, Elevated Tank
Rest, Hanging Kit, Hybrid Mount, or HMS Adapter Arm to find the
perfect mounting solution for your set up.
- Tank Rest - Included with all Blade lights up to 39",
this low-profile mount sits directly on top of your tank and
extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the fixture.
-
Mounting Clips - Included with all Blade lights over
39", these clips are compatible with the AI
HMS Single Arm Mount and HMS
Hanging Kit rails.
-
Elevated Tank Rest - An attractive and sturdy tank
mount for both rimmed or rimless tanks. The Elevated Tank
Rest increases light spread and allows for easier access into
the aquarium when compared to the standard Tank Rest.
- Hanging Kit - Made from high-quality brushed aluminum
with a black finish, the Hanging Kit provides an elegant
solution for suspending your Blade above your aquarium. The
Hanging Kit also allows you to mount 3, 4, or 6 light bars in
parallel for increased coverage and streamlined aesthetics.
- Hybrid Mount - A mounting solution designed to combine
Blade strips with one or more AquaIllumination Hydra or EcoTech
Radion pendant fixtures. The best of all worlds, rolled into
one!
- Custom Mounting - If none of the above mounting
options suit your fancy, the Blade also includes M8 mounting
threads at each end, enabling you to easily create a custom
mount with endless possibilities.
Control Your Way
The Blade LED can be wirelessly controlled via iOS and Android
devices on either the MyAi or the Mobius app. With the app, you
can customize your spectrum intensity and set custom schedules
for each light, or just select from one of the in-app templates
available. Both apps can be downloaded for free on Google Play
and the App Store. Each Blade LED also includes onboard
controls for cycling through spectrums.
Compatible with MXM
Neptune Systems, EcoTech Marine, and AquaIllumination have
joined forces to bring MXM to life. Now all your favorite
EcoTech and AI pumps and lights can be under the wireless
control of Apex & Apex Fusion—the user-friendly, yet powerful,
interface you already know and love. No more switching between
multiple apps.
