Firstly i think you need not compare this to the ATI, the Fauna Fixture has features the ATI does not so that takes away any price comparison anyway.
The other thing that I keep being told is that you cant get ATI in North America anymore????
I also read on another forum that the ballasts used are made in china, no idea if this is the case but if correct then another reason why you can not compare the two fixtures, Quote -
"However I am told the VB T5 ballasts in my T5 ATI Powermodule are made in China, and not as reliable as the old all German VB ballasts...?"
Fauna Marin using German made ballasts from the worlds largest ballast manufacturer.
Yes Fauna of course have worked hard to be competitive and the only thing that will influence the launch price will be the cost of parts to build the unit to a very high standard
Remember - You get what you pay for in life always.
