Can you rest this new light on top of cover glass rather than use a bracket?
And will it be ok under a hood?
One of your guys said don't use a hood with the nemo lights.
Best to use the brackets to allow for airflow/passive cooling. The Nemos (and these) should be OK under a hood as long as the tank has good cover glass and the hood has adequate ventilation. If anything these should be better than the Nemos under a hood in that situation as the controller is external to the light itself so can be outside of the hood, with the LEd part under the hood. None of these types of lights should be used in a fully enclosed hood though
