Ultra High End Equipment - Guaging Interest

I might be selling my system as I don't have much time for it anymore (kids), and would like to see what kind of Lower Mainland (or BC) buyers are out there for a couple big ticket items that I have.

Lighting
First is the Sfiligoi Infinity XR4 Pendant w/ACLS. 1x250W HQI + 4x24w T5. This is the ultimate luxurious lighting as it is the only dimmable HQI on the market right now. I love this light as you can choose how long the sunrise/sunset is. So if you decide to have it come on at 8AM, it will start at 0% and gradually go up to 100% in whatever duration you choose. So Sunrise could essentially be 2 hours. Same goes for Sunset. I love sitting watching tv and seeing the light slowly dim into the sunset. Brand new this is $1400

What controls this dimming feature is the ACLS ballast. This thing cost $1100 brand new (just for the ballast and controllable features), but totally makes the light. You can set latitude/longitude to simulate being in different parts of the world. I set mine close to the equator to simulate Hawaii's conditions.

Total this lighting package cost me $2500 + tax last Sept 2006. I know I was nuts for paying this but if you are a fanatic like I was, you'll appreciate how cool this item really is. These two must be sold together (as the pendant is "ACLS ready"), so I am asking $1500.

Skimmer
Also for sale is the Deltec AP701 I purchased in Oct 2006. This is the "shorter" version of the AP851, so it fits under a cabinet quite nicely. This uses an Eheim 1260, you can't get a better skimmer for the rating (besides Bubble King

)

The retail price of this is $1200 + taxes, I am willing to let it go for $900

Buyer would have to pay for shipping if outside LM, and the Sfiligoi would require quite a bit of packaging if I were to do so. NO LOWBALL OFFERS PLEASE, you will be ignored.

Thank you for your interest.

Oh man I didn't know anyone had a ACLS Ballast in Canada. I wish I had the cash I would jump all over that.
When you said Ultra high end you weren't kidding.
