Aurora Smart 78 — RGB App-Controlled LED

Details

A 34W RGB LED bar for planted freshwater tanks, set from your phone. 4200 lumens at CRI 90Ra across a 78 cm span, with two bracket heights in the box covering tanks from 70 cm to 95 cm long.

  • Full colour, set from your phone. RGB mixing across the spectrum, adjusted in an app rather than by cycling a button on the cord.
  • Colour you can judge plants by. CRI 90Ra means greens read as greens. Cheap aquarium LEDs sit in the 70s and make a planted tank look flat.
  • 4200 lumens over 78 cm — the second-brightest in the series. Output for every length is in the gallery.
  • Two bracket heights included. Short legs for tanks 70–80 cm, tall legs for 80–95 cm.
  • Aluminium body, IP44 splash rated. Built for the splashes and condensation of an open-top tank, not for submersion.

Questions about this light

Frequently asked questions

What size tank does this suit?+

The bar is 78 cm long. With the low bracket it suits tanks 70–80 cm long, and with the high bracket 80–95 cm. Both brackets are in the box. On a 95 cm tank the ends of the scape will be noticeably dimmer.

Is 4200 lumens enough for carpeting plants?+

For most carpets at this span, yes. We do not publish a PAR figure because the manufacturer does not measure one, and we will not estimate it. If you are growing something genuinely demanding, ask us first.

How is the colour controlled?+

Through a phone app over the light's own wireless link. Set the RGB mix once and the fixture keeps it.

Can it get wet?+

It is IP44, which covers splashing and condensation on an open-top tank. It is not submersible. An earlier version of this listing claimed IP68 — that was wrong and we have corrected it.

Does it do a sunrise and sunset ramp?+

The manufacturer documents no scheduled ramp for this model, so we do not claim one. What is confirmed is app-based colour and brightness control.
