The GHL Mitras LX-6100-HV is a high-power, full-spectrum LED pendant light for aquariums, known for its extensive color control and robust German engineering. The GHL Mitras LX 6100 HV has been well-regarded in the aquarium community as a highly capable unit, especially in equipment reviews comparing it to other leading LED lights. The placement of the hyperviolet LEDs directly within the main clusters, combined with the comprehensive control options, makes for better color mixing and light spread.
Key Features and Control
The Mitras LX 6100 HV offers detailed control over nine individually dimmable LED channels, including dedicated hyperviolet (HV) LEDs, allowing users to fine-tune the spectrum for optimal coral or plant growth and coloration.
-
Color Customization: The nine channels of control enable the creation of specific color temperatures, ranging from warm whites to intense blues and hyperviolet, to suit different aquarium types (freshwater or marine).
-
Programming: Users can create custom lighting schedules using the GHL Control Center software via USB connection or the built-in display panel. The fixture can also be run in a master-slave configuration for synchronizing multiple units.
-
Design: The light features an integrated heat sink and a refined airflow system, drawing air from the top and expelling it from the sides for safe and durable operation.
-
Upgradability: The LED clusters in the Mitras LX 6000 series are designed to be upgradable, allowing users to install newer LED technology (such as the LX7 LEDs) without replacing the entire fixture.
