opinions on this Lumenmax pendant

[NateHanson]

Does anyone have a review/opinion of this pendant? Is this about as close as you come to a lumenarc reflector in a pendant style? It's smaller (only 12x12"), but does anyone know how the light distribution is? I'd like a pendant that can illuminate a 24x24" tank from a fairly low hanging height.

Lumenarc makes a mini pendant like that. Without the dimpled aluminum and slightly different pendant. Wasn't sure if you were aware of that from your post. I can't review the lumenmax one but if you want an opinion on the lumenarc lmk.

its somewhat similar performance to reef optix IIRC under the bulb you will have concentrated very high par, par readings drop off drastically as you move away from the bulb, drastic as in not enough par for sps.....

This is the Lumenarc version, 14" x 14":

Ah yes. That's what I'm looking for. I'll see if I can find that.
