I do actually, the only problem is my camera has a hard time showing realistic color representations. I will see what I can post up tonight.

On a side note.

I am working on cleaning up your items and I will try to get everything together to ship out today!

Yeah,

I was a bit pricey but it will save on my power bill and also the complaining from my wife that it is too hot in the TV room! lol.

It does put out more light but mainly it puts out light in the exact spectrum that I want for growth and color. I may take RON99's advice and just use a couple small LED's to add a bit of shimmer back in.
