My AI Primes lose sync all the time. I have the Primes on 4 different tanks, all set to turn of at 10pm. I'm constantly having to go into the app and sync them with the current time.

Fan failure after initial success; customer service provided "hassle-free" replacement.

here's a Prime HD (the previous generation, with 3 less LEDs) we have over a small 5 gallon SPS tank. I think it's putting out around 300 par about 4-5" below the water line.

I've been happy with the blade but it is a new product - it is less expensive than the wrgb 2 pro - not quite as strong but plenty strong - much stronger than the finnex - it is not cheap.

the fan seems louder than i'd expected

If these lights don't have a fairly solid wifi connection, they will frequently disconnect...had to setup a wifi extender

Great lights and perfect for 75g...I have many varieties and don't run the Hydras past 65% intensity and they grow perfect!

royal blue's will burn out...burn out rate is unacceptable...I have personally paid $200 in shipping and parts

I have 1 Ai prime (not hd) on my 25 lagoon. I have sps and lps. All doing well. Love the light.

Kessil's support is much better than AI so may sell the AI and go to a Kessil.

I haven't bleached anything out yet and the way the tank looks color-wise is a good fit IMO.

I've been really happy with mine over an IM 40 tank that mostly has softies and gonipora.

Received mine a few days ago and absolutely love the size, adjustable spectrum and price!

I just got my prime today from my lfs and it's awesome.

Great light. Very tiny, sleek and simple

Honestly, I love my AI Prime (non-HD). I have one over my 25g Lagoon (24L by 20W) and it is - surprisingly - adequate lighting. Albeit, I don't have super high demand corals (mix of LPS, softies, and some easier SPS like birdsnest, monti cap and monti digi). My RBTA did great, and I sold it because it got way too big!!!

Just got mine and I really love it!
