My understanding is that you send in your gen 1 they send you a gen 2. This is what I read on reef builders. Since the light is identical other than diodes themselves they want to salvage all the gen 1. Plus it stops people from sevicing the units themselves. If you have the tir upgrade its $130 upgrade and $150 without already having lenses

This pricing change was expected wasn't it? This is what happens with almost every new high tech product - i.e. Apple iPhones.
First adopters get bleeped to be first adopters, and as soon as there is more competition at lower prices and new versions coming out, those early versions drop precipitously in price/value. With all the new LED lights coming on the market, this is happening faster and more dramatically than with most products in the past, but this is one of the disadvantageous of being a first adopter, n'est pa? Probably a good idea NOT to look at the new pricing schemes and simply enjoy your Radions. They are still as good as they were when you made the initial purchase decision. There will always be newer versions out for every high tech toy, so its a no-win situation to think too deeply about how much you paid back in the day versus how much the new versions are going for now and what new features it has. Enjoy your existing Radions & Kessils that you bought in the last year or so and don't stress too much about the new pricing policies. Not too much you can do about it anyways, so sit back and enjoy what you have. They're still awesome lights and a major upgrade from what you had previously. Just my $.02. Anthony
