Kessil AP9X LED Light for Aquariums

The Kessil AP9X LED Aquarium Light marks a significant advancement as the successor to the powerful AP700 model. With a robust output of 180 watts, the AP9X is well-suited for covering areas of a mixed reef measuring 4 feet by 2 feet or an SPS reef sized at 3 feet by 2 feet. Improvements have been made across various features compared to its predecessor.

One notable update is the newly designed Kessil AP9X Mounting Arm, which must be purchased separately. The light's lightweight construction permits the incorporation of a lower-profile single mounting arm for each unit, enhancing the overall aesthetic and installation ease. An added benefit of these new mounting arms is their swivel functionality, allowing users to adjust the angle of the light to minimize shadows and prevent light bleed.

The AP9X is not only lighter but also boasts a more compact design than the AP700, making it more appealing and easier to install. Excitingly, the LED clusters now feature a Violet Channel, reminiscent of a 20K radium halide, which enhances coral coloration and promotes better growth.

Another significant advancement in the AP9X is its built-in Wi-Fi capabilities. The app interface has undergone a complete redesign, now utilizing the same software as the Kessil Wi-Fi Dongle. This change enhances reliability and offers users more detailed control over the lighting settings.

Furthermore, the AP9X ensures broad compatibility with other Kessil lighting models. It comes equipped with K-link and 0-10V ports for the seamless control of all existing Kessil lights. By using the AP9X as a central hub, users can easily integrate and manage additional models such as A80s, A160s, A360s, A360Xs, and the H series refugium lights, all from a singular app interface. To connect the X-Series models, users can utilize the Kessil X-Series LED Light 90 Degree K-Link Cable, while the same cable also works for the A80s, A160s, A360s, and H series lights.

Overall, the Kessil AP9X LED Aquarium Light is a remarkable upgrade that not only retains the power and coverage of its predecessor, the AP700, but also enhances usability, versatility, and aesthetics. This model is designed to meet the evolving needs of aquarium enthusiasts by providing advanced features that facilitate remarkable coral growth and coloration, while also ensuring easy integration into existing setups. The AP9X is crafted for those who demand the best for their underwater ecosystems, showcasing Kessil's commitment to innovation and excellence in aquarium lighting technology.
