  • 2.5 YEAR REVIEW
Pattern Name: 150-watt
PRODUCT: This is the review for about 2.5 years of using NICREW 150W Aquarium LED Reef Lights. Now, it's very important to understand that I'm writing in regards to my experience with these lights, I'm not comparing them to the lights in a $1.000 range. I purchased these two lights on Dec 1, 2022. After two years both lights are working great!! I have Innovative Marine 100g INT tank (47.3" x 23.6" x 19.7") Two of these lights are more than plenty for the tank with these dimensions. All the LPS and SPS in the tank love it. Aesthetically lights have a very solid build, look great on top of the tank. The lights come with solid metal holders. Altogether the whole light set up looks great! BAD: There are nothing bad about these lights. I would wish is that the next version would have: 7 controllable channels instead of two. Each light would have at least one more uv bulb. As of right now the white channel uses tons of bulbs, tons of space and being used at 10-15%. From the engineering stand point it would make sense to reduce the white channel assets and expand on light blue, purple and UV bulbs (at least by 3 bulbs). OPERATION: I use these lights with the NICREW HyperReef Light Controller. The lights are VERY powerful, don't even think about running them at 100%, unless you want to burn everything in your tank I set them up to run for 10 hours daily: One hour to ramp lights up - WHITE at 5% - BLUE at 5% Eight hours for full power of - WHITE at 10% - BLUE at 65% One hour to ramp lights down - WHITE at 5% - BLUE at 5% At this settings the lights work very quietly and do not generate much of heat FIXES: On July 19, 2024 after 2.5 years, controller that was plugged in into the light #2 stopped working. I unplugged the controller and plugged it into the light #1 and controller started working again. So I concluded that the problem is with the light #2. Then Light #2 simply stopped powering on and just occasionally would flash. After some investigation I found out is that the power adapter has failed. I just unplugged the light and plugged it into the power supply of light #1 and light #2 came back to life. So I went to Amazon and purchased "NICREW AC/DC Adapter for 150 Watts HyperReef LED Light". So when you light will fail (all lights will fail eventually), do yourself a favor and connect it to the other light power supply. ... show more

  • Worth the money
Pattern Name: 100W
This is the first review I have ever posted. This is a very nice light. I have had 2 100 watt over my 58 gal. Reef tank since March 2022. I also bought the Nicrew timer that is available on Amazon. Lights: so I was going back and forth with this light and other cheap led lights on Amazon. I thought I would try to help other with this decision and getting info out there that I struggled to find. One of the biggest differences with the Nicrew and other black box led lights is that you don’t have an outlet over your tank with the Nicrew. Obviously it still wouldn't be good if this fell In the tank, but not as dangerous as having an outlet hanging over the tank like with the black box lights. The fan is quieter than my skimmer. I have NEVER heard the fan running unless I put my ear directly to the light. Mounting; mounting can be a pain if you don’t have a rimless tank. I had the space to get a screw driver between the tank and wall, so was able to loosen the mounting bracket and tighten it after getting over my rim. One bracket had a slight bend in it and after reaching out to Nicrew the sent me a new mounting bracket (this one was stainless steel, and very nice. Not sure why they don’t include this bracket in the original box. It is ALOT nicer). I think i had a new bracket within 3 days. Timer: tha timer is great. It comes with two wires to daisy them together. You will need to play around with the timer to get the settings you like, but it is not difficult at all. If I knew this was easily available, I would have bought these lights two months earlier. PAR: I was finally able to get a PAR reading. These lights are bright. I run them at 100% blue and 35% white. See the following for readings: Sand bed - 100-120 Lower shelf (4-6inches off sand bed) - 175-200 Mid tank - 225 250 A few inches under water level - 300+ The spread seemed very even though out the tank. I would strongly recommend these lights to any hobbyist looking for a much cheaper alternative. ... show more

  • Good for the cost
Pattern Name: 150-watt
The light is bright enough to compete with the rest of my setup which are all AI hydra 64's. I didn't realise when purchasing that there is no way of setting up a program/schedule for this without purchasing an additional controller. Still consider this to be a good budget light

  • Bright and solidly built.

I had been using Current LEDS. These are much brighter. My corals have been squeaking by. Now they are flourishing. Recommend

  • Power adapters go bad after a year
Pattern Name: 150-watt
I have 3 Nicrew Reef Lights, two 100 watts and one 150 watt. All have had the AC/DC power adapters go bad. When this happens you might think it's the light itself, but if you swap the light to the good adapter (of the proper wattage) you'll find the light is fine, it's the adapter. A VOM on the output of the adapter further confirms it. The light itself is good, puts out decent color which can be controlled with 5 step levels each for the white and blue channels. It's no Radion, but they grow SPS, clams and everything else in a mixed reef fine, and the blues make the colors pop reasonably well. The Radions can make the colors glow more, if that's your thing. And if you want more control you can get their spectral controller, which is widely derided as being difficult to use - but I haven't tried it myself since I have a similar Kessil controller that worked, and is much more inuitive supposedly (I never needed a manual - manuals are for suckers lol). If only the power adapters didn't fail, or they weren't so expensive (near $50 for the 150 watt, available on Amazon). Also you can't find the voltage/amperage combination with generic adapters, the Nicrews require some oddball spec, so you are stuck buying the replacement adapters through them. Like ink for printers, it must be Nicrews business model to make money off of the power bricks. Boo! Think I'll knock off another star - writing this review is souring me even more on these lights. ... show more
