The product, in the report: VIPARSPECTRA Timer Control Dimmable 300W LED Aquarium Light Full Spectrum for Grow Coral Reef Marine Fish Tank LPS/SPS (T300 LED) purchased from amazon on September 24, 2020 (https://smile.amazon.com/VIPARSPECTRA-Control-Dimmable-Aquarium-Spectrum/dp/B07SMY9KWF/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8). Grey exterior, Dimensions 31.5 x 8.5 x 2.4 inches, weight 15.5 lbs
I own a several VIPARSPECTRA Timer Control Dimmable 300w LED Aquarium Light Full Spectrum for Grow Coral Reef Marine Fish Tank purchased from amazon that I have hanging over my salt water fish tanks. While adjusting the light with the lights off, but plugged in, I received an electric shock and my finger was numbed when it touched one of the external side screws. I then used a digital multimeter and set at 20 DCV and was able to register a current that kept fluctuating between 0.00 and 0.08. I have 3 other lights that I tested and found this to be an issue with 1 other light.
