Curious if anyone has gone from G2P to G4P and how's the difference?

I've had a red sea reefer 425XL for about 2 years and have always ran G2P with phenomenal growth and pretty good color in a SPS dominant tank, the lights are I think 2012 or 2013 at this point and I've never ran them over 40% (total on time is 10 hrs ramping up/down for 4 or so). There are some colors that are more difficult to bring out though which is the reality of it I guess.

The only reason I ask is because a friend of mine is breaking down his tank and offered to swap my lights with his if I added cash (he's listing his tank for sale as a whole for really cheap anyway), so its an opportunity to upgrade lights.
 
My friend Dr Sanjay Joshi made the switch. He rant the Gen 2 pros with the wide angle lenses. He made the switch to Gen 4 pros and ran them at the exact same levels as the Gen 2 pros.
