DIY LED lighting system on ebay

Unread post by mahantesh_b »

Hey guys,

This is just FYI.

I recently bought 100W LED from ebay seller. It is kind of DIY. I'm very happy with the light.
Check this out - http://www.ebay.in/itm/50-Watts-2-feet- ... _750wt_904
You can see other items from the seller. He has other wattage for your requirements.

The only reason I'm posting this is - the seller was very good in communication and showed complete interest in customizing to my requirements. He is one of those sellers who look for customer satisfaction than money.

Anybody interested can check it out.

Regards,
Mahantesh

Thanks Romi :)

My intention is just let people know about it.. Honestly, I searched lots of days for reasonable rates for such products where cost meets quality.. I have seen other products but either are too costly or will not suffice our needs..

I'm not marketing his product here.. Just had a very good business with the seller & happy with the product so felt like sharing with others..

BTW, what is this "Bhagirath place" ?

@Sushant - The link I shared is 50W but the seller can give any wattage you need. I got 100W.

@Saikumar & Arindam - I wrongly wrote in my 1st post as recently bought. I bought my LED fixture 3-4 months before. I don't have any recent pic as I don't find time from my work sorryg
But if you want to see how my tank used to look with the lights then I'll attach the pic but I know I didn't do well with planting. I first posted it on other website and there I got some responses asking me to change couple of things but I couldn't do it.

Light have some blue tint so please also show here kelvin of LEDs. They are looking more suitable for marine aquariums instead of freshwater tanks.
