Seeing that Martin makes me think I might have to go a little bigger with my heat sinks

Every day!! I go into the shop to go to work but then my attention is diverted to where my glass is & I have to go at least touch it. :biggrin:

Cool pic. Now Grizz, could you imagine if you had to solder all of that! :lol: NO THANK YOU!

Soldering all that would not bother me a bit, I have spent countless hours build and repairing small and intricate aluminum pieces & a TIG, so soldering would be a breeze BUT I do really like the plug and play Martin has going. The ability to temp attach the boards, plug them all together & power up to see what it looks like over my tank will be sweet.

Just have to convince Martin into doing a payment play :lol::lol:

Are you going to wait for the new HEW LED's?

Finally some good news on the new whites. They have shipped, arriving in BC tomorrow, scheduled for assembly on Monday so I should have them by Wednesday next week :biggrin:

That will be the XP-G, XP-E HEW (Cool White and Neutral White).
