Well the new 70w halides been running all week, picked up the ARC 70w retrofit from aquaria.ca (found @ ) http://aquariacanada.com/osCommerce/product_info.php?cPath=1_74_90_94&products_id=1031

Nice electronic ballast, I got the 10k bulb (choice of 10 or 20k, though I heard the 14k might be coming soon!?) retrofitted into a 11$ home despots 150w halogen flood light housing. Works awesome!

The first ballast arrived DOA unfortunately, but ivan was really good about getting a second one to me ASAP.

Should have started out with this system, way better than the PCs I've been running.

had to tip it back a bit so the picture would turn out somewhat - you'll notice the 2 loops of aircraft cable, it's just looped over a pvc frame until the MB7 comes online where the pendant will be better built/designed.
