I wasn't going to get involved in this one because I don't have that Radion hardware... but I think you basically need to know how many pounds the hardware was designed for. One thing to keep in mind: German hardware should be stronger than chinese ones. I'm not sure about the quality of the Radion hardware, but they were made with light weighted Radions in mind. I know I can swap the ATI fixture with the Giesemann using the same mounting on the ceiling. I had to change the gauge of the wire though. The spectra was heavier than the Sunpower.Another question for you guys. Do you think this wire hanger for the Radion rail kit is equivalent to the one that came with my Giesemann kit? Im pretty sure the Giesemann fixture is about 25 pounds. The radion rail kit has rails that are 90” and can hold multiple radions. It will make the switch much faster if i dont need to switch them out...

Oh... I clean the glasses for halides when I change bulbs simply with running tap water with paper towels or a drop of mild dishwash soap and never had any issues. I put a drop and clean with my bare hands or paper towel under running tap water. I also cleaned halide glasses in the past both for SE and DE with windex... no problem. Gotta be dry to use, of course. I've never tried to remove water spots from those glasses yet. During my normal maintenance I just use wet paper towels and dry right after with a dry paper towel, lights off, to keep it nice.
