250W retro system from hellolights?
Anyone use or know how these 250 W HQI DE retro systems are from hellolights?
http://hellolights.com/25hlmhrekith.html was thinking of getting this. How about the 250 WATT 14K HQI REEFSTAR by Hamilton http://www.hamiltontechnology.com/sh...w&cat=Reefstar |

Both systems are good. Retro looks good and affordable. Hamilton has good quality equipment though. Are you using a canopy?
