Wow.... A 24 inch light is only 339$usd.....anyone use this brand. Also a 48 inch light is 514$ compared to say a vertex at 4 grand.
I am really tempted....

You're looking at a fixture that uses budget 1W LEDs and likely offers zero flexibility on upgrades or repairs. Really not anywhere near the vertex. You're getting what you pay for.

If you're looking for more affordable LED's you'd likely be better off with Maxspect or KEY lighting systems, Vertex are top of the line LED's which explains their ultra high cost. For what it's worth I don't think the features/hardware of the Vertex justify the cost.
