great light at a great price
I have been using these for 2 years. Both LPS and SPS grow well under this light. This product is well made. It has a good form factor, great configurability, and an affordable price. I also have the G3 version of this light for my other smaller tank. It offers similar excellent qualities at a smaller size. Both G5 and G3 are great reef lights, especially for reefers who are price conscious. Highly recommended.

Hard to beat this light for the price, mounting hardware is servicable, update on the way!
This light is fantastic, all the way around this light can't be beat for the price. The 6 adjustable channels are easy to tune and has a 1-100 scale for total control. The fan is considerably quiet if inside a canopy or a few feet away. If this light is in your office like me (only about 3 feet away) it's a little loud, but it doesn't bother me. The lights kick on after any channel is set over 25% to keep heat down and to preserve the life of the LEDs, so I can't really complain.The worst part about this light is the mounting arm, which isn't actually that terrible. It does require a little bit of modification (4 washers and some tape) and it's good to go in my opinion. I have dealt with much worse in my time. The good news is that I've contacted SMAT farms and they're working on a 2nd gen arm that they sent me a picture of and it looks much better. It's similar to other industry standard arms and should be a significant upgrade.From the negative (1-2 star reviews) a few of those problems are easily fixable. I don't understand how someone has a purple light. There's 2 white, 2 blue, 1 purple, 1 green channel. The blues completely overpower the purple (as they should) if you turn them up.For as cheap as it is, the timing settings are pretty solid. Some people have mixed them with Apex controllers to get full functionality out, personally I think the onboard timer is enough for me. You can set your full brightness time with a ramp up/down on either end. It even holds this setting if the power goes out.All in all, for the $135-150 this light will cost you, it's worth every penny. I'm planning on putting 4 on my 200 gallon and I'll be coming back with updates.Currently my SPS are reacting well to the light as well as getting great colors out of my zoa colonies. I'm still taking it slow on acclimating my corals up from the stock EVO light, but I haven't had any problems so far.

Great value, great PAR
UPDATE: These lights are growing acros with no issues, amazing value!I've used plenty of reef tank lighting over the years, some cheap, some very expensive. Purely because of the pricing for these lights, they have been the most impressive.Great color rendition from my corals, the color blending of the individual diodes is outperformed by few other lights on the market. The lenses also keep the light from blinding me while I sit on the couch in the same room as the tank. A+The control and included mounting is the weakest point of this light.While the control is a bit lackluster, it is easy to use, and being included out of the box for this price is incredible. Plenty functional, just no crazy bells and whistles.The mounting gets the job done, but it doesn't instill confidence. I have no doubt it'll hold the light, but it does feel a bit flimsy. That being said, again, for the price, including mounting of this sort in the box, that's pretty great.All that being said, there's no PAR data for these lights on the listing, so I took it upon myself to take some readings in my own tank (this is for ONE light only, not two like is shown in my picture).12.5" under the light, I'm able to easily reach 350 PAR directly under the fixture. Within a 6" ring of that, still able to get about 275.17" down, I measured roughly 250. The 6" ring around that was hitting about 210.Now at the bottom of my 45 cube, 26" under the light, I was hitting 170 directly under the light, and the rest of the sandbed was reading at 100-150.The only variables I'm unsure on are growth of my SPS corals, and the longevity of the light. I'll post updates as time goes on.Overall, fantastic lights for the price. Definitely a worthwhile buy.
