sorry to read about your issues but once you get past them you will be soooooooooooo happy with your light! I cant say money well spent but sure wont be going back.

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.

oh, i know-- i can tell from just the two banks of lights. It's wonderful!!!
(the light unit's control cable should "click" into the splitter box and hold, right???)

Yup they should just push together and stay. Are they sending you a new part?

that's what I thought. I just hope it's the splitter box and not the plastic clip on the fixture's control cable-- because THAT piece is hard-wired into the UNIT!! I can't tell from visual inspection that there's anything wrong with the control cable. but with my luck....

haven't heard back yet-- it was late Friday afternoon by the time I picked up the cables, got home, and got the thing plugged in. I hope to hear back on Monday...

Just heard from Albert, bless his sunday afternoon working soul... he's shipping a fresh splitter box to my home, putting it out tomorrow for delivery. he has been quite patient with my brand of fishy infuriation.

Albert is a good dude so I'm not surprised he's helping you on a Sunday.

it will be soooooooooo nice to see those lights in their proper glory. The corals are already loving the light-- bigger, puffier, and i have never seen such great colour.
wowowowowow
Monday morning: the splitter box is here! plugged it in and it is working perfectly on both sides-- plug ins and lighting unit connection.
aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. now that is pretty.
double wow.
boy, are the corals happy. and so am I! Thank you, ALBERT!!!
