Color Your Way

The Blade LED strip light is not your average lighting solution! It goes beyond expectations by maximizing color clarity and efficiency. By incorporating exclusive EdgeFieldTM Optics, it achieves uniform PAR output, seamless color blending, a generous 95-degree spread, and a mesmerizing natural shimmer effect in your aquarium. Thanks to its wide angle and modular cluster LEDs, the Blade ensures light wraps around elevated areas in your tank, offering a smooth and evenly distributed illumination while minimizing shadows. Combining 3 or more Blade strips eliminates shadows and evenly distributes light, akin to traditional T5 fixtures but with improved efficiency and cost-effectiveness. You can also pair the Blade with existing light fixtures to supplement or fill in lighting, enhancing coverage and reducing hotspots.

Available Color Spectrums:

Coral Grow
Coral Glow
Refugium
Freshwater

The Coral Glow model is specifically designed with a mixture of LEDs that enhance the blue and UV spectrums, highlighting coral fluorescence. It serves as an additional light source to complement the Blade Grow or enhance your existing lighting system, giving your aquarium a vibrant appearance. For optimal performance, a ratio of 1 part Glow to 2 parts Grow is recommended, although using one of each is suitable for lower light requirements.

Each AI Blade LED Strip consists of approximately one grouping of light clusters per foot of the fixture’s length. The close arrangement and strategic placement of diodes contribute to the balanced shimmer and performance of the Blade series. In the Blade Coral Glow, each cluster group contains 24 diodes.

Mount Your Way

The AI Blade offers a range of versatile mounting options to accommodate various setups. You can choose from a Tank Rest, Elevated Tank Rest, Hanging Kit, Hybrid Mount, or HMS Adapter Arm to tailor the perfect mounting solution for your needs.

Tank Rest: Included with Blade lights up to 39 inches, this mount sits directly on the tank and extends up to 4.5 inches on each side of the fixture.
Mounting Clips: Provided with lights exceeding 39 inches, these clips are compatible with the AI HMS Single Arm Mount and HMS Hanging Kit rails.

Elevated Tank Rest: A robust and visually appealing mount suitable for both rimmed and rimless tanks, offering improved light distribution and easier access to the aquarium compared to the standard Tank Rest.
Hanging Kit: Crafted from high-quality brushed aluminum with a sleek black finish, this kit allows you to suspend your Blade above the aquarium elegantly. It also enables you to mount multiple light bars in parallel for enhanced coverage and a clean look.

Hybrid Mount: Designed to combine Blade strips with AquaIllumination Hydra or EcoTech Radion pendant fixtures, offering a versatile mounting solution.
Custom Mounting: If the existing options don’t meet your requirements, the Blade comes with M8 mounting threads at each end, giving you the flexibility to create a custom mount tailored to your specific needs.

Control Your Way

You can effortlessly control the Blade LED wirelessly using iOS and Android devices through either the MyAi or Mobius app. These apps allow you to personalize the spectrum intensity, create custom lighting schedules for each unit, or choose from pre-set templates available within the app. Both applications are readily downloadable for free from Google Play and the App Store. Additionally, each Blade LED is equipped with onboard controls for easily cycling through different spectrums.

Compatible with MXM

Neptune Systems, EcoTech Marine, and AquaIllumination have collaborated to introduce MXM. This integration allows all your preferred EcoTech and AI pumps and lights to be seamlessly controlled wirelessly through Apex & Apex Fusion. This user-friendly and robust interface eliminates the need to switch between multiple apps, providing a unified control experience for all your devices.
