I can not find anywhere in the whole of North America selling this fixture.
So back to the Great new fauna fixture then 
Canadian also brings up a valid point here that is a direct benefit to all Canada consumers. The Fauna products are purchased in Euro's converted into CAD and as such not effected by the inflated USD, so you really will pay less than you would for any comparible unit coming out the States for sure, including no import Tax or crazy shipping prices 
The biggest benefit for the canadian consumer is stability in retail price. We are getting more an more enquires from new European manufacturers seeking a canada based distributor exactly for this reason. |
I don't know what you're seeing when you go on reefgeek.com but unless I have a cached version of the site in my browser the ATI Powermodule is still on reefgeek.com for sale. If it's not showing up when you go to the site either my browser is keeping a copy of the site in my temporary files despite me deleting all my cookies and temporary files or you're not following the "T5 Fluorescent" link and only looking at the home page.
If Greg has discontinued selling the ATI lights (which at this point I don't see any evidence of) I would guess after speaking with Greg a couple weeks ago that it would be due to protracted wait times causing a considerable loss of sales. Additionally, and you and Fauna Marin might not be aware of this, Greg is now building his own dimmable T5 lights which are reported to possibly be ready for early 2009. So there will be another new kid on the block at about the same time that Fauna Marin comes out with their offering. And that new offering will also be dimmable with what have been reported to be some of the best reflectors available (and they'll be made in the USA).
