Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between the Normal Edition and the Diving Edition?
The Normal Edition (IP43) is designed strictly for overhead mounting above the water line or over open-top terrarium bowls. It must not be submerged. The Diving Edition (IP67) features a fully waterproof housing that can be safely placed underwater, under driftwood, or behind rocks to project dramatic upward underwater beam effects.
2. How do I adjust the beam angle on the Chihiros Z Light Tiny?
The front lens housing features a manual twist focus mechanism. Simply rotate the front bezel to narrow the light into a focused 15-degree spotlight or widen it into a soft 60-degree fill light.
3. Can I adjust the color temperature and brightness?
Yes. By pairing the fixture with the My Chihiros App via Bluetooth, you can customize the color temperature anywhere between 2800K and 8000K, set dimming thresholds, and automate daily photoperiod schedules.

Reviews
Nice little Spot
"Nice little light, I'll probably get the clip-on as well. You don't see lights like this and it's great for my little 3 gallon nano."
Love the spots of intensity
"Love the spots of intensity light."
Great Light
"Quickly received this light after ordering. It was well packaged and game safely. The light is perfect for my small tank and my plants seem to responding well after 2 weeks. The scheduling and app isn’t as good as it could be."
Good but not great
"The light intensity is great but the arm is very small and it is a very narrow beam of light, even if you open up the beam to the widest setting."
Bluetooth module melted
"The light overheated and the control module melted."
Spotlight on tank
"I really like the ease of these spot lights! Light intensity is perfect as well!"
Fun Little Light
"Paired this with a UNS 25c and it looks great. Good quality plastic with lots of positions. I really like the spotlight effect it gives. So glad I didn’t go with the cheaper Amazon alternative. Some adjustability in brightness, warmth and timer the app which is fun"
Very unique and useful little light!
"This is a pretty unique light in that you get the Chihiros quality of life features (app integration, programmability, dimming, good build quality) in a pretty unique form factor. Being a pendant as opposed to a strip light means you can create some amzaing ripple effects, and being a small, 5W light makes it perfect for nano lights (as opposed to a $300 Kessil!) This has been the perfect light for my nano blackwater."
