Interested in getting into Aquarium Lighting
Hey, I am glad I found this web site. Maybe you guys can help me and in return I can help you. My name is Kevin Alvarez. I am with SKR Energy Systems, Inc. My company manufactures energy efficient lighting fixtures and retrofit kits for the commercial and industrial business. I am very interested in starting to make an affordable retrofit kit and/or fixture for the aquarium sector. One of the first things I noticed when I was doing research is that most fixtures do not have a true specular reflector. The ones I did see were called Spider Reflectors and to be honest with you, I thought the price of those reflectors were a little high. I know we could manufacture a very similar product for a much more reasonable price.
I am going to be contacting IceCap Ballast tomorrow to see about establishing a distributor agreement. I am interested to hear what you guys are looking for in terms of lighting fixtures. Who knows, maybe we can help build it.
Maybe I can answer some of your questions regarding lighting in general. Again, I do not yet know much of the details of aquarium lighting other than the color temp. is extremely important.
