    AP T8 light fixtures

    I want some opinions on these as well as some pictures to get an idea of how they look. You could also put dimensions down if pics aren't on option. Thank you.

    I had AP install their white LED's in mine. I'm very pleased. I can post up some pictures in the morning.

    I have the AP red led strips in 2 enclosures and the blue led strips in 2 others. I prefer the red ones by a long shot.

    I didn't even know they had different colors.

    That would be great. You would think AP would have some sort of diagram to show more of the accessories. So far I only found the locking mechanism for the doors.

    You can get the led strips in red, white, or blue. I got (2) red and (2) blue. I was trying to find the multi colored led strips but they were all 10mm or wider and the AP recess in only 8mm.

    I have been a big fan of these LED Moon Lights.

    http://www.lightyourreptiles.com/arc...reptile-cages/



    They are not expensive, are totally waterproof and compliment the LED strip lights I use from Menards.





    The top photo misrepresents how much light is thrown off to an extent. I have the shutter open on the camera. But you can see in the lower pictures that the blue light isn't that bright compared to the standard LED white strip.

    I usually give all the snakes 2-3 hours of moon light before blacking out for the rest of the night.


    These lights are also available in red.

    I used osram LED strips in mine. Bit expensive (especially for 2 tanks) but my lights are RGBW controlled by my phone, or on automatic schedules. Dim cool white for day, dim blue for evening, very dim blue for night and off for early AM hours. They had adhesive on the back, but with some handy dental floss work, I was able to mount them easily.
