I would say more for the novelty of the fixture. Features such as it links to your pumps, so when the lightning storm comes on your vortechs ramp up. Something cool to show your friends once in a while. The RGB is also a nice feature that many LED fixtures dont have. Other than that...... Not sure. But its a sweet fixture.

Ok but an iPhone is basically same price as other touch phones. No one pays double or triple like people are paying for this fixture

You are paying double or triple for an iphone. Whats wrong with a normal phone with a number pad and send/end button? Why do you need touch, internet, email, games, etc on your phone?

same reason why nitemares are 40$/head on some sites while you can buy a frag of any common zoa for 10 or less lol its like it because people pay it, if no one paid the money they were asking for these lights they would be forced to lower the price or fail in the business.

i wonder what the real mark up is on these fixtures what it cost to make compared to what they retail for anyone have any ideas???
