Just got water in the tank tonight. I have yet to program the light. I have it set at factory default. I've played with it for a few minutes and the LED color is pretty cool to manipulate.

Looks identical and is very comparable to the ATI for a fraction of the price.
There is a Canadian distributor with free shipping.

I'm biased obviously, but this is kind of like comparing an ATI fixture to a TEK. No one comes close to the par, bulb life and efficiency of ATI. I have a hard time believing that the fixture in the link is of the same quality. The ATI is expensive, but I think you get what you pay for. Only time will tell as these fixtures are brand new with little evidence to go off of other than the reputation of ATI.

Apparently blau is huge in europe. The 36" fixture is around $900, these are definitely not cheap chinese crap, but time will tell. As for right now, yeah ATI is more well known.
