Maxspect Razor question

Primalphil · Jan 12, 2021

Probably a silly question but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere. What is the difference between a Maxspect Razor X R5 200W and the Razor RSX R5 200? Are they the same light with different names or does the RSX and X signify something different? Pricing seems to be the same as well so I can't piece it together between the stats and other items. Links on the 2 different ones I've found below from BRS and marinedepot for examples.

I have an opportunity through a friend to get the RSX at a lower cost than listed online but wanted to be sure I wasn't getting the wrong light somehow. Would be buying for a Red Sea reefer 250 running mostly LPS and softies for now but possibly some SPS in the future.

I believe it's the same fixture. If you are really concerned, ask Maxspect. They have a forum here at R2R:

I think Marine Depot has it wrong, given they can't even get the brand name spelled correctly. ;Hilarious

if you go and check on maxspect website they have RSX, but nothing about X. probably the way it is written RS/X is misleading. I am 99% certain it is the same thing.
