    Haha Ohhhh! Well real men use butter for sun screen!


    What's funny is my LFS tested my light on a BC there and acted like 519 on the sand was nothing and I should have bought a 150 watt MH.

    lol, look at the AI sol measurements, seems 300 par in the prime middle on a sandbed is good and 200 on the perimeter is cool. 519 seems to be HIGH req!

    My 7 year old can literally change the settings on the typhoon. Easy isn't even the right word! Brain numbingly easy is closer. now if ya wanna reprogram it, that may be a another issue, but i'm happy as it sits! $54 of awesome
