    Finally the long awaited Vertex Illumina SR260 1200mm 4' Fixture the pictures dont do it justice but its unbelievable and just a sexy sleek fixture that has some weight to it.

    I will just post pictures here and do a full review on my upgrade thread. But you def need some shades when turning this thing on lol now im seeing spots.

    My first thought was HMMM how am i going to get that in the house without re-breaking my leg or hurting the light lol

    After taking off the 5 skimmer boxes that it was wrapped up in you are left with one very plain white box lol

    My dog (ninja) had to get in the picture.

    Everything is nice and neatly pack so it wont go anywhere.

    Power connections and hanging kit.

    Mean well must be the way to go :)

    pending which fixture you have depends on how many you will have to plug in but the max would be 3.

    Thank you and yes him and i both where!! lol

    Save as in like putting cash back? I just happen to have enough to pay for it but this fixture will set you back about 3K

    LMFAO i could have used some of those legs but i just muscled it up there with my gimp leg now for the pictures.

    I need to figure out the difference between royal blue and blue any help?
