I honesty don't think that the price for the mitras is actually worth the bottom line is if they dropped the price a lot you would get more people buying the LEDs and that pretty much the truth on that. I can pretty much guarantee u could have everyone on canreef on LEDs if u drop the price to a normal price paying 800. Bucks for 1 light is kinda crazy and now u have the pro radion and now the mitras which is a lot of money but that is my opinion

Not going to get further involved in this thread but price point is important to cover - Unfortunately the cost will not be coming down, the Mitras especially took 2 years of development just to start, then you get into the patented parts that are used to provide the same effect you would with T5. then dont get me started on the linear dimming curve, then the up to 40" end user reported spread from one fixture etc etc.

Then there is the individually hand made side of things..............

Following this thread as I am looking for a LED fixture too right now, and I'm a Profilux 3EX owner.

I have a hard time justifying the price tag, especially in comparison with other fixtures... twice the price of the Radion G2, three times the price of an A350 etc... but given the great reviews of the Mitras so far, it is an interesting option. Particularly because of the high spread and PAR shown by Rodney on RC and the lack of spot lighting.

I have heard some concerns about electrical components not being isolated from the fan, like they are in the Radion. Also, some have complained about the location of the USB port.

The fans suck air in from the top (fresh air) and blow down and aross the board and out the sides, the unit is also advertised for non enclosed tanks so you will not have one single issue.

The USB port is for limited use, once programmed you do not have to use it again and once the unit is wireless enabled then other than for firmware you will never use it.

The price comes from all the plus points you mention for sure. spread etc etc

Hope that helps
