Anyone else currently using this light or planning to purchase one? Just picked mine up a week ago to use over my new JBJ rl20 rimless tank. I absolutely love this light. So easy to program and set up a 24 hour light schedule via computer. No more t-5's for me. The way this light makes my corals pop is amazing.
 
I made the switch a yr ago from t5 I will never go back. I'm currently running a 60 cube acro tank and everything looks and grows amazingly. If u ever want to checkout my schedule, just pm me your email ;)
 
Here's my tank :)

And everything in the tank grew from frags, and most of them in the past yr since I made the switch

Nice growth Gnarley. Everything look's healthy. Your lighting looks to be around the 12k mark. Am I correct? Im gonna start around the 14k mark. Adding a little more blue light to the tank.
 
I'm looking into them right now as I plan my new 90 gallon tank… There are some great videos on YouTube showing colors and shimmer, I'm used to having T5's, can't wait to get some Radions!

I won one at a lfs raffle a little more than a year ago. Gen 1.
I liked it so much I bought 3 more for my other tank.

My wife was a little shocked at how much I spent on the 3 Radions, but a couple months later she told me that the power bill dropped $60 a month.
That and the savings from not buying 3 mh bulbs, 4 vho bulbs and 6 T5 bulbs, just in the first year 2 of them were paid for.
