EdgeField™ Optics
Optics are one of the most important components of an advanced lighting system. Edgefield™ technology incorporated in the Blade delivers even PAR, smooth color mixing and exceptional spread.
Edgefield optics, designed exclusively for the Blade, provide an incredible, 95 degree spread while achieving unmatched light mixing along the length of the blade. The specular exit surface presents a crisp and natural shimmer in your aquarium.
Bright-Sized
The Blade Coral Grow, Blade Coral Glow and Blade Freshwater are available in 7 different sizes. Regardless of tank size or application, Blade has you covered.
Tank Rest Included
For Blades sized up to 39.1 inches the Low Profile Tank Rest is included. The tank rest extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the blade (for a total of 9 inches).
Water Resistant
Blade is not only versatile but built to last in the harsh-environment of marine aquariums. Blade meets IP66 standards which indicate the highest protection against particles and a high level of protection against water.
Silent Running
The Blade incorporates a highly efficient heat sink design. Passive cooling means no fan and no air movement or fan noise. This makes the Blade ideal for lighting aquariums in living spaces where less noise is a big plus.
