the prices are listed on the site...

crazy expensive.. but it lasts roughly 16 times longer then my vhos. and it's better.
still crazy expensive though!
perhaps when/if it really catches on in the hobby it could help drive down MH costs.

I thought LED's were cheap, arent they pennies at your local radio shack, I know I read about a pico LED light before. I say lose the controller and make it plug and play, I think that would drive down the price. if anyone buys them keep us updated.

48" 20K Solaris LED Illumination System. Supplied with Control Modular and Mounting Feet. Solaris-G-48-20K $2325

if farmer wont buy it, must be expensive. you could buy a complete set up for this price, not a farmer set up but a regular setup.
