Before anyone jumps on this consider the usable amount of LEDs in this fixture, 70W of white along with 50W R-blue and 10W Blue is a poor ratio. You'll run the whites quite low as result using closer to 40W so it's a really a 100W fixture. That's now pretty comparable to the Vega which also uses better LEDs, better optics, can be upgraded, will have local warranty support, better control, and cost less. The fact the fixture may be capable of 200W means nothing, the driver provided is 144W and this company releases new fixtures every couple months to copy the latest and greatest trends, they don't offer upgrade kits.
