I am eagerly awaiting some longer term results from using these 100w emitters. Sounds like the second GB was started before everyone in GB1 even got their emitters yet.
Unfortunately, if they need to be mounted up high, Irene would most likely never let me use these 100w pendants since she worries about how bright the lights will be to the human eye (we have two little girls and my 10w emitters have to be mounted low and with full reflectors to kill the glare). I'd probably have to mount it nearer to the front of the tank and slightly angled back so that the glare would be against the wall, I guess.
I imagine that once there are some longer term results from these First Adopters and it becomes more common to use these multichips, the price and variety will hopefully reach a point where they will be more available and attractive to reefers.
I'll have to swing my Burgess' place to check out his Kessils with the 90 watters to see it in person.
