Orphek par38 bulb reviews?

[1guydude]

So im really liking my par38 bulb from ecoxotics! It has 40deg optics and is 20k, however i see a new item. I think this is a new one! Its a orphek pr-25. It has more leds in it and has 60deg optics and is even dimmable with a common house hold light dimmer and comes in color varying from 14k-16k.....Its another $80 about for this bulb compared to the one i already have. Im trying to get a floor fixture with multi sockets so i can run these...e.g. i dont think my mom wants me to install track lighting in her ceiling, otherwise i would have already done this =) ! They have a less expensvie orphek bulb that has two u.v. lights in it to really make the colors in ur coral *pop*....except i think its more of a moonlight bulb than the daylight one! Anyways my question is has anyone used this bulb yet or is it still very new???? I still havent decided if i wanna change my light fixture on the 36gal from t-5 to LED....e.g. tek light or get multi par38 bulbs?!?!?! Any reviews on thes orphek bulbs cuz i cant seem to find one....

these are using 2w bulbs, so better than the 1w bulbs and the uv effect is nice. but CREE is proven in the hobby so i stick with the 3w leds when it comes to PAR bulbds. you can use this to just add more coverage to your tank, i think itd do quite well
