Why all the hype over these ecotec LEDs?

I think the only reason people are buying this light is for the same reason some people buy a Rolex (on a smaller scale)

"Worth that much to anyone"... You cant say that there is no way.... there is... its called OPINIONs man. Yours is different than another guy... that IS the difference... those features ARE worth that much to some people.

Do you have any other hobbies that are uncommon? Do you wear extravagant clothing brands? Some people think thats nuts... others no. 'To each their own'...

If people didn't enjoy the 'personal value' of the radion features... the fixture would already be a flunk lol.

True, there are others that may have one, and very few of their freinds and family know they do.

You know some people will be as stuck believing that about you advocating the Iphone as you are about the radion, right?

"I... think..." he said. Fighting a war with unpredictable human tastes/values/emotions/desires, there is no win. Your just as right as the next guy.

If LED's didnt grow corals... everyone with LEDs over their tanks (who have had them for more than a month) would have nice bleach white tanks. (or brown, red, green, from only cyano/algae, lol).

You wouldnt see 'growth pics' or 'colouring up' pics from people with LEDs if they didnt work.

Cheers,

Chris

Or its all just a big conspiracy, and everyone including Kien who has tried lots of LEDs, just say they work great to avoid the shame of admitting they didnt work.

We all know Kien borrows the non-LED-club mascott 'Ol-blue' from Brett when the LED's are off.

So why are these LEDs better than the 200 dollar led pendent from china? Won't those grow corals too?

I'm not really arguing along with you guys but try and sort out a failure with one of those fixtures. Ecotech definitely has a reputation for making things right for its customers and even that carries it's own cost.

Not to mention the LED used in most of those units put out much less light.
