I run the Gen1 Ecotech Radions which don't have any UV in them. I have been running supplemental UV LED strips since 2012. They add a nice subtle pop to the greens. The back side UV Leds strips have been burnt out for over a year. The salt spray from the corner overflows took its toll. I added corner overflow acrylic covers to resolve the salt spray but never got around to replacing the leds. This time I went with the solderless from rapidled.com. The difference in price was negligible and much easier to replace. 12 Leds + wiring was $60 shipped. There was nothing wrong with the driver ballast and I already had reflectors.
