    Bru, you are killing it mane with your reviews, both quality and timely. No one else will probably make this video and the fact that you’re out here to offer it is huge, so fortunate, thanks! You deserve way more views IMO.
    I did this with the 1v2 a ways back and it took me so long to find pictures and posts to figure out the info and it was still not nearly as much as you gave. Just to find a pic of the LED array was real tough. Want to see at least a pic of the E3 too but won’t find it. I wish the manufacturer or at least a shop would post all the data you gave on the lights. Lack of product info is the biggest set back in this market and it’s so common, idk why the market can’t keep up with the times.

      Thank you bro, this is the reason I motivate to do CZcams. 🙏🙏🙏 and I agree, manufacturers should give way more info, but at the same time I can see why. They make you buy it to find out 😂😂😂

    This is EXACTLY the comparison I've been looking for since the release of V3. Thank you! I love the Twinstar lights, although the purple-ish tone to them have always been their no.1 con in my opionion. Looks like my upcoming 90P will have a twinstar 900 S III. Thanks again :)

    really good review. the III definitely looks a lot more natural but i do love my twinstar II. the light doesnt look that pink in person at least for me, though i run it at about 80% on a dimmer.
    I wasnt patient enough to wait for the release of the III anyway lol.

    Are the Twinstar S and WRGB2 Slim in the same class? I think the latter is actually just a rebranded A+ series, which is a lower tier.
    I’ve always thought about getting a Twinstar but the cost with no built in app feature doesn’t seem like a good deal.
    Whenever Chihiros releases their wifi controller, that would be a real interesting review! This is a great review for folks with the Twinstar II looking to upgrade. 👍

    • @TankTastic
      @TankTastic  Před 3 lety

      I think the wrgb2 is in the same class as Twinstar S series. I did a review on both before and given the wrgb2 has more bells and whistles, I recco that over the Twinstar. 😁 also the wrgb2 is much better light than the A+ series, I’ve owned both and wasn’t satisfied with the A+.

    Yeah, I got the Twinstar Light Vs3 and I noticed the same thing. Whenever the lights go off I see the green leds shutting down slower . Buy since it's my first Twinstar I thought it was normal 😅.

    • @TankTastic

    Another awesome video! So glad you do these comparisons b/c there isn't a lot of info on these lights out there and nobody got time to post and read on forums these days hahah. BTW, I'm looking to get a TwinStar 900 for my UNS 90L. I believe the glass is 8mm thick, will this be an issue fit wise? I saw it's cutting it pretty close in your video even with 10mm.

    • @TankTastic
      @TankTastic  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you bro! Well, the light III will cut it way closer than the light II. Light III is pretty scary on a 90cm that has 8mm thick glass. (I have a 90p with a 8mm glass and I’m like 😱😱😱)

      @@TankTastic Do you think if I glued these pieces to the inside of the top edges on the sides of my 90L then it would provide enough edge/ledge for the 900SM to sit?

      Onf flat one. Twinstar/Nuniq is good choice led lighting for growth plants.

    • @TankTastic
      @TankTastic  Před 3 lety +1

      I agree, what you see dont mean you can grow the plants. But for a show tank, I feel the color renditions are important. It’s kind of like the saying, “look good, feel good” havent heard of Netlea, theres probably a lot more I have not heard of. In the USA, we are a bit limited with stuff.
