If you haven’t heard of Elos suncolor system, your not the only one. Suncolor is a 150w HQI lamp that has the ability to change temperature of the light from 10,000k all the way to 22,000k. It is controlled by a computer that is integrated to the hood itself. In the video it is shown in “demo” mood so that it cycles through all the Kelvin ratings (10,000k to 22,000k). This isn’t an LED system, but rather a real 150W HQI. It uses “sun shades” to alter the light. With typical LED units, you only have access to two types of light: White LEDs and actnics. With that type of LED lighting unit the only varations you can receive are different levels of those two lights. The Elos suncolor system is trully amazing and it has been around for over 10 years, getting contstantly improved. No word on pricing, but contact your favorite elos retailer about ordering this unit.
