This is a quick iPhone video of the LEDs using the scroll wheel to move through the color range. Room is dark and no other lighting is on. End of video is the purple color that shows off the greens and reds.

I wonder how the growth will be. Are you going to use the PC's as well or just stick with the LED's? I have a nano that I'm building that could use those if they turn out to work well.

And the $40 was for all 4 strips with controller?

$40 for the LEDs, all in one kit, $3 for the Swedish meatballs and fries.

Not sure they will affect growth at all at their wattage and I plan to still use the PC lighting. I may use them as dawn/dusk lights. They are best used to bring out the colors and have some fun with I think.

Edmonton has em. 129 in stock currently. I think this is a must buy. Thanks for the heads up.
