I wasn't implying anything by saying it was a crap deal for buyers of the remaining J&L stock. Tho when I posted that today it was still on their front page and now is gone. For whatever reason that occured it's good that nobody will unknowingly buy OR sell these doomed lights.
This whole ordeal blows my mind. Feel so bad for the early adopters of what could have been a promising thing.

I had no idea until now that anyone was having problems with the Solaris. I've had mine for over two years now... no problems with it. I have to take it apart every six months or so and blow the dust out, but that's about it... Maybe it's because my tank is covered, so the moisture can't get in and corrupt the circuitry?

I think if this is all true somebody should tell PFO, see Solaris is still up on their site http://www.pfolighting.com/pfoaquatics/SolarisMain.aspx

I'm glad J&L took them down. This lawsuit has been pending for some time and lots of industry insiders knew about it long before Reef Builders and Glassbox posted about it on their blogs. I was tempted to email J&L when they posted their most recent sale to question them about the timing of the sale given PFO is seemingly going to go belly up leaving consumers without any support. Additionally, retailers in the US were removing these lights and discontinuing sales starting nearly two weeks ago. I thought it was funny that the J&L sale was a mere 10% off for a light that was knowingly having such huge difficulties.

Quite a while ago I bought a m.h. coralife product and was not aware of the nightmare
that would follow. It was according to my dad a piece of crap. I was a little scared of it to begin with. But once I got it I found some problems with the bulbs not fitting. I phoned the people who sold it to me, many times and finally was told to talk directly to them and proceded to get the run around, anyone ever shipped back a metal hallide light. Those suckers are heavy. Needless to say I have it still in a storage room. Talk about a sore spot....buyer beware.
