Apologies for the shaky camera work, but I have cut together some video footage of the 30W Eco-Aqua on the display aquariums at the Aqua 2011 show, which gives a much better idea of the product performance than a static image. Hope you like it!

New 30W Eco-Aqua LED spotlight attracts attention at Aqua 2011

led-spot-underside“Our best LED product yet” is how Gerard Oates, MD of Arcadia, described the new 30W Eco-Aqua LED spotlight. Launched at Aqua 2011, the new lamp aims to recreate the visual effect of Metal Halide lamps, with a powerful focussed beam of light from a small cluster of highly efficient CREE LEDs. The spotlight incorporates a striking passive heatsink design that cools the light without the need for fans, and it looks like no other LED light on the market, really setting off the display aquariums at the show.

Arcadia launches new Eco-Aqua LED Lamps at Interzoo 2010

Arcadia Eco-Aqua LED LampDesigned from the outset to provide the same spectacular colour rendition as Arcadia fluorescent lamps, the new Eco-Aqua lamps blend multiple coloured LED sources, bringing out the vivid iridescent colours of fish and providing far more natural colour rendering than other LED lamps. Unlike fluorescent lamps, whose even light distribution can flatten the look of an aquarium, the multiple point sources of the Eco-Aqua lamps create light and shadow giving a dramatic three-dimensional look to the aquarium with far more visual impact.
