Well, I see it like this. One of the nicest SPS tanks on the board uses 3 AIs and has the same area I need covered. And at half the cost, it's a no brainer. I would still need 3 radions to cover my tank, and that's over 2500 bucks. $1000 more than I need to spend for AIs.
I have not seen a SPS tank posted here with radions of any caliber to make me think otherwise.
Yes, the radion is a nice looking fixture, it has lots of geek appeal if you like that sort of thing, but I do not believe it is a better light. I believe it is a different light, more suited to a different audience. If I had a ton of spare cash lying around, maybe I'd consider them.
