Traded my 3 nice working Kessil a360w for his 2 Radion xr15 g3 with mounts and WXM with @Mebeknob Would have been fine except 1 lamp was bad. As in bad led driver per Ecotech! Also 1 mount is cracked and the other tarnished, needed painted and both the stainless bolts cut. So essentially I ended up piecing together 1 light and 1 mount for my 3 Kessils. Discouraged because this is the first problem I've had here. I should have known better. For what I have invested now I could have bought new Radions. Now Im stick with somebody elses junk. I even shipped mine out first as a gesture of good faith. [emoji20]

Please include in your post how I did not know the driver was bad as they still work perfectly well with the WXM module which was included with the trade. I took them both off my tank fully believing they were in perfect working condition. Also you knew about the tarnished light fixture when purchased. Also include in your post how I have tried to rectify the situation and offered to send you an apex flow meter as well.

Let me know what will make you happy with this situation as I’m not trying to pull a fast one on you.

I’m sorry you feel jaded with this situation.

This is how they were in my tank right before I took them off and sent to you, just so you don’t think I’m lying about them working for me.

It was not functioning correctly so I sent the light to Ecotech because I don't want to argue about whether it was working correctly or not. I should not have gotten involved in used electronics. They were gracious enough to sell me a replacement at cost. I had 700$ invested in the Kessils and now another 290$ for the new G4 which was my choice. You were nice and polite to deal with but I couldn't let it go without saying something. Send flow sensor and the rest is history.

It was your choice to send them in for repair with out reaching out to me. We could have simply traded back, no harm no foul.

You never gave me a chance!

You didn’t do that because you “didn’t want to argue”, yet you’re completely fine going online and slandering my name.
