I don't have LEDs, but I recognize their benefits and can appreciate why someone would want to run LEDs. LEDs are not terribly. They won't crash your tank, they won't make your take look like poop. LEDs work, there are LOTS of nice tanks running LEDs.
I appreciate the technology too and LED "IS" the future that is for sure (being an electrical engineer, I love LEDs) and would choose my house lighting with LED instead of CFL. BUT, I am an anti-LED in this hobby because although I dont overlook the benefit of it (dissipates less heat and the no more bulb replacement) but I don't support some of the more stronger claims by many hobbyist like "saves money" and "equivalent replacement of MH". Ofcourse different hobbyist have different preference but don't you think the usual lines of "get an LED, we are in the new era!" is a bit over rated? :P Instead, it should be something like "go with what you like and here are the pros/cons of each type"? Now can I join?
