led's off ebay

[harleymike]

Was going too order more led'd. I found some noname ones on ebay. Anyone have any experience with these.
I'm talking just the led star's.

After all incurred expenses are they any cheaper on eBay? I've never bought a DIY kit myself or even loose LEDs.

I bought some royal blues from aliexpress, I think like 10 to add to my build as my tank was too white. I have been running them on full for 6 months now with no problem. Paid about $20 free shipping. Only difference I found was that the mounting stars were a little smaller but that doesn't make much of a difference if you have a good heatsink. All my corals are doing great and growing and I even have two Nems that seem quite happy.

I ordered the ones off ebay. 20 bucks with shipping for 10 3watt cool white and 10 royal blue. I asked what the brand name of the leds was, and he replied with epileds.
For 20 bucks i will give them a try.

Damn that's a good deal!  I've been wanting to add some more royal blues, may grab a pack of those for each of my heatsinks.

 

[MrHermit85]

That is a great deal!!!!

Yup, getting cheaper and cheaper, probably get really good DIY deals if you shopped around enough.

Found a pack of 5 cree xpe's for $12 the other day. Probably not the best bind but hey for supplemental you can't go wrong.
