Is there a way to mount this in a jbj nanocube 28 hood? I have the intermediate LED but it's never worked right and I want to gut the hood.

I have the 29 gal bio cube..I gutted the lid, saved the clear cover for the light and put the led lights in its place and put the clear cover over the led lights. I did not have to "mount" them, because the clear cover holds them in place with the screws. the led light have an extension bar that I pulled out far enough to over lap the clear cover. Once you get the lights and look at it you will see what I mean. I have not had any trouble at all installing them this way, plus they are covered by the clear cover.Im very glad that I bought the lights and set them up this way, no more fan noise and the heat is almost non existant. I just purchased the 38 to 46 for my 72 gal bow front and cant wait to get them!!! Hope this helped

I just pulled all of the original parts out and then notched the bottom of the hood to clear the mounting legs on the new Orbit. I'm sure you could attach it to the hood but I took the easy option

You may want to inquire with SRA in your application because you may need a stronger alloy for your application. My application was simply surface mount LED's so I wasn't stressing the joints in any way.

To access the bulb, you loosen a screw on the guard, then twist and remove. The jelly jar has a screw thread molded into it, which screws into the housing. If you use LED bulbs indoors, then I would suggest omitting the jelly jar. A fully enclosed LED bulb can run too hot for the electronics in the base.

I don't think so. I got the smallest such bulb I could find and it still sticks out slightly past the end of the hood.

Assuming you mean a H7ICAT housing, that is a standard 6" halo housing. Normally I loosen the wing nut to take the socket holder bracket out, unclip the socket from the bracket/heatsink, check to be sure that the side spring clip holders have not been bent out of the way for a previous trim (if so bend them back out with a short screwdriver etc...) , screw the socket adapter into the socket, plug into led trim, align spring clips and push trim into place, I sometimes tap around the trim to get them to seat properly.Good Luck, should be a simple procedure able to be done by most people.

I don't know details about your application, but I doubt it, and even if it does, you have not solved the issue - heat dissipation. One side of this device gets cold, the other hot. You will still have to dissipate the heat with some heatsink and possibly fan. I would leave out this device and mount the LED to properly sized heatsink.

There is a clear plastic insert that comes with it that fits in the hood. They mean the actual LED lights should not be without that plastic.

I would choose another light. The soldering on this light looks like a child did it. But as far as the size, it might work.

sorry for the slow response, i don't get to many questions on here. :) I popped open the lens which just screws off like a normal flashlight. but looking at the diode, it's not a normal LED, but looks like it's soldered into the unit. I'm not too technical but i do have a digital camera with macro capabilities and have a photo of the bulb here: http://s69.photobucket.com/user/Epic_elite/media/IMG_96701_zps63064ef2.jpg.html behind the chip that the bulb is mounted on, connecting it to the reflector is some heavy metal mounting bracket with the screw points where the wiring connects with the bulb. the back of the reflector pic here: http://s69.photobucket.com/user/Epic_elite/media/IMG_96761_zps0191c6c2.jpg.html basically I'm not really seeing any practical means of swapping out the bulb.

Hmm I have the same ones and they work perfect for me. It sounds like you may want to try to get your waranteed. When all the led's are lit these are super bright.

it should just sit on the upper lip of the tank. It needs to be the same size as the tank. I bought one that was smaller and attached it under my regular hood with wire. be aware though. This led doesn't like water and will soon short out on you. It really needs to sit on a glass panel on top of the tank.

You need a Hot Shoe mount adapter. I ordered these. They are well built, mostly metal with plastic handle, and work great! 2 of CowboystudioUmbrella Mount Bracket with Swivel/Tilt Bracket - They will you the 1/4 mount needed to mount LED lights. That is what i use them for. Hope this helps! There are other cheaper versions, but i ordered these because they were metal.

why wouldn't you, chad?yes they do exist best I've found is on crazypc(dot)comi used a cold cathode and a shoe box top to make a light up hood for my 2.5 gallon fish tank works like a charm ;-)

You can use 18650 I use them and mine has not presented any problem. It will use 4 1825 with with sleeves . I have an 1865000 lumen with 15 cree t6 led and I have the same 18250 in it and it works super well

This is made to drop into an incandescent light. I believe you'll need a spanner of some sort to unscrew the bezel of your led head. After that you may need to fenagle it to make it work.
