Comparing watts of LED in both:

Radion - 130W / $825
SOL - 75W / $400

Now the SOL doesn't have the spectrum capabilities but seems to offer more power for the money. I'm sure you can't assume that double watts is double the par or whatever but both seem close enough in terms of light output for the money. If I understand correctly the LEDs in the SOL are all very much useful in terms of coral growth and the Radion's red and green might be to a lesser degree (but still some)?

Real question is what performs better? One Radion or a pair of SOL Blues?
