Reefsupply is Canadian...they are out of the Kelowna BC. Nick is great to deal with.
I have only toyed with the IT2040 so far...it's for my frag tank and if you look at my build...it's going slow so the light is not being used fully yet. I would say keep the reds to a minimum in my opinion though.

Here is a link to the D120's still on their site. Not sure what's going on with Nick's site as it's not looking right today.

You're looking for group buys to save on evergrows regular price. This canadian supplier is still even more expensive then that, and they charge for shipping. $15 is one thing, but seems like buying them canadian really will cost close to $50 more.
My light was declared as a $40 sample. Cost me $14.96 when it showed up at my front door. Free shipping, Free DIY upgrade, etc. Just cost as listed plus duties. I may have to go direct to china for everything now....

group buy on led
I just went in with a freind on 10 units from a similar company, Twilight Group co.
We got the dimmable with built in timer unit. We customized the colors to include 2 reds on the white channel and 4 violets on the blue channel and also added on 120 degree optic lenses. They make the tank look amazing. I must say that the customer service was amazing. Simon kept us up to date on a daily basis, even called me to talk (fairly good english). Anyway was quoted $120 / unit. Shipping was $300 and duty / tax was around $300. So total was around $180/ unit. They have the same unit listed as $188 shipping included. Plus tax and duty so there was a bit of savings by group order. Simon says that if we order again he can give us even better price, the more times we buy the better we get on discount. Oh he did send out a free sample unit that has built in timer with dawn to dusk self dimming effect, takes a sd card you program to the times, light intensity and it can also be controlled by a smart phone, nice bonus. I will defanatly be ordering some off those in the near future.

The prices listed on the site are for single units. On a group buy everything gets much cheaper. I have not tried to organize one one here due to the fact that i am not sure if i would get in trouble for doing so. Since i am not sure what i can and can't do i will post a link to organize one on my website and not in here. If someone wants to link that is probably ok, but i am unsure of exactly what the rules are for that kind of thing.
i am also not sure that the quantity would have to be 12 to see savings. But the orders would have to be the same so they can make a production run of 4-24 units and ship all at once since most of the savings is on the shipping (air mail is quite expensive). in the next day or so i will try to get #s nailed down and how many units i would have to order and also get permission to mark units down in a group buy. Since most are already at minimum sale price provided by evergrow themselves. Thanks Nick

That extra few inches width makes it harder, you're stuck between 3 or 4 I think for the 120. Id be lazy and do 3, but going sideways with 4 would be better coverage and would probably still be able to do 4 for under $800.
