Really can't tell unless you know what watt the diodes are.

I've seen that light and I really doubt it ... Not so bright at all

needs to be bright enough and the kelvin color must be around 6500K for optimum chaeto growth. JBJ sells nano LED's or refugiums and it's 6500K. I also bought a PAR bulb LED from lowes that's 5000K a few days ago and trying it out.

Thanks guys I was just trying to save few bucks but I think gonna go with Coralife mini which oceanic recommend as refugium light or JBJ LED magnetic

I bought a clamp light from Ace ($6) and use a CFL bulb ($3) in it. It's not pretty but it's cheap and works.

I bought this little thing from In Tank for my little nano. I haven't used it yet cause my tank is cycling but I did test it underwater and worked just fine. Heres the link.
