This is makes those results more dangerous than the recommendations of the dealer, who most know to take with a grain of salt.

Great point, but I don't think alot of people would take anyones opinion as gospel. Testing or not, I see grim's work as opinion, nothing else. What i'd like to see more of, especially with t5 lighting is, "This is my fixture, this is my bulb combo, this is a pic of my tank"

Prices?

I am assuming you are going to price it somewhere between a Tek-light and a Powermodule.

Prices will follow and will reflect the very high level of function and quality. I.e digital active cooling, German built single reflectors, European ballasts, quick start wiring and tube sockets. Quality acrylic shielding, solid annodised frame work etc etc. Pretty much far and beyond what is available easily in North America at present.

NO that does not mean they will be out of $$ reach that would not make business sense, and as purchased from CAD$ the units will not suffer ever changing prices or hikes due to exchange rate fluctuations which is effecting many USD$ purchased products at present.

But if you are looking for a cheap $500 fixture no this will not be for you.

These are quality German fixtures made by a renowned German manufacturer - Fauna Marin
