Looking for 72 Inch PFO Solaris LED Light

Hello,

I am looking for a 72 inch PFO Solaris in working condition with power supplies and all. This particular unit is the subject of an ongoing investigation and is thought to be the cause of a FIRE!! If anyone has one of these units and is willing to part with it please send me a private message and we can work out the details. Again, I am looking for the 72 inch PFO Solaris only!!

Thanks

Why bother investigating? The company has been out of buisness for a couple years now.

Its an insurance game. They need to know who is at fault for the fire. What most people don't know is how the insurance game works behind the scenes. If you make a claim when your house burns down you get a big fat check, but the insurance company doesn't stop there. They investigate the fire to determine what caused it and if possible they will pursue legal action to reclaim the money they paid to the insured. If it was in fact the PFO Solaris light that caused the fire then I do not know what they will do, perhaps they will pursue legal action against the remainging part of the company. It is my understanding that only PFO Aquatics closed its doors and there is another part of the company still in business, but thats not my job. I am hired to determine what casued the fire and let them deal with the legality of it.

Got one used for 19 and a half months

I have one with two working power supplies and one iffy (only works sometimes) power supply. Would be willing to work a deal on it. I think there is 3 or 4 LEDs out on the whole unit, but I am not sure if they are out or just were "off" during the programming that was running. I actually was looking for a way to make a new power supply so I could sell it, when I saw this post. Email me at EMDEL3@aol.com if you are interested. Thanks.

Erik

O, it's an Model "i4", if that makes a difference. Comes with manual, though shipping would probably be a lot (heatsink is heavy as you probably noticed) unless you are located somewhere in New England. I am in MA, Springfield area.
