So a lot of people don't think its worth upgrading there lights, whether its a mitra,sol,radion. heres my opinion on why it is worth it.
1- you sell you lights your gonna loose money
2-the new lights u buy your gonna lose on them too.
3-you upgrade your boards , or pucks you now have spares.
Heres some pictures of my upgrade on my mitra

now all done except for the end plate.
these are all plug and play.
onley thing I did afterwards was upgrade the firmware which needed to be done anyway.
and like I said before well worth the money to upgrade considering the money you would loose selling the fixture then buying a whole new one.
