Overachiever
cafe. We can call it the "Lighthouse". The cafe has been split into sections, each being served by a different manufacturer with their own daily special. As you enter the Lighthouse you will most likely be greeted by SolarOasis, a familiar face to the regulars because SolarOasis has worked in the cafe since its inception. But it is your first time to the Lighthouse so you choose the first open table and order the special. When your order arrives it is like nothing you have ever eaten before. You are not even sure how to go about eating it. You look around for clues from your fellow diners and that is when you notice that in the SolarOasis section, The condiment stand has a diagram of just the information you need to make the most of your meal. You also notice that your server is busy taking notes off of those very condiment stands. He is very helpful when returning to answer your questions but it becomes apparent that this cafe is like any other field of business. There are the slackers and there are the overachievers. While other servers gossip in the hallway, SolarOasis is serving up the Pro-5 with a 100% increase in light energy. Complete with condiments. The finest meal ever presented in the Lighthouse. A hush falls over the cafe as one by one the patrons are overwhelmed with that feeling of "I wish I ordered what they're having." You stand and slowly walk over to find a seat with the regulars. Pro-5 led grow lights are available now. The other servers will be busy taking notes.--AL *********************************************************** Coming Soon... The Aqua-Bar The long awaited Solar Oasis Aqua-Bar is expected to be ready for delivery in March. The Aqua-Bar professional Aquarium Grow Light is offered in two models. The standard ABP3 led grow lights have three LED clusters, which will provide expert results in fresh water aquariums up to 20" deep. The ABP5 Professional model has five LED clusters for maximum light output in both marine and fresh water aquariums over 20"deep. The sleek design is accentuated in distinctive clamshell packaging suitable for shelf or hook display. Each kit is packaged with instructions and everything necessary for immediate product use, by itself or in combination with other Aqua- Bars, on either an aquarium clear top or aquarium sides. An optional mounting hardware pack will be available for attaching the Aqua-Bar into popular PC lighting mounting channels. The Aqua-Bar represents the first ever LED based lighting designed specifically for photosynthetic growth under water and supports the growth and development of all photosynthesizing aquatic organisms (plants, algae, corals, and bacteria) commonly found in both the fresh and saltwater aquarium. For primary or supplemental grow lighting the Aqua-Bar avoids many of the pitfalls of traditional lighting. The cool operation prevents unwanted heating of aquariums, and the low voltage provides for safer operation around water, children, and pets. Durable, and long lasting, the Aqua-Bar is ready to make a splash. CEO, Solar Oasis ************************************************************ Here's a Mouthful A weighted quantum reading provides the best light comparison available today. Light measurement for plant growing has always been based on legacy technology, with the quantum sensor being the best compromise. However, the quantum sensor, while being the standard of scientific light measurement across multiple light sources, still has it's flaws especially when measuring LED grow lights. There is another factor in measuring light for plants: The weighted plant light absorption spectrum, which is based on the work of agricultural scientist K.J. McCree from the early 1980's, which still stands unchallenged today. His work involved providing an algorithm by which a direct comparison could be made between different light sources, wavelengths of light, and the actual absorption by wavelength of light by plants. This algorithm gives more or less value to light, by wavelength, and its ability to be absorbed and used by plants for growth. This is significantly different from just considering the plant absorption factor because plants not only absorb light differently by wavelength, but they also "use" light differently by wavelength. The total emitted light energy from a single LGM3 bar is 22.96 uMols at 20". This is total plant absorbed light energy that is near target with maximum plant absorption peaks, as opposed to white light energy numbers which contain 80%+ light components not used by plants for growth. --CEO Solar Oasis *see Accuracy of quantum sensors measuring yield photon flux and photosynthetic photon flux.
