I really like the fact that with the controller I can have a nice light cycle other than just on and off. Plus I didn't even notice a difference in my bill. Ok I won't high jack your thread anymore.
The controller on my 6x24" ATI Sunpower Dimmable is simple and great. Each channel ramps up from 0-100% (after a 50 hour after break in period for the bulbs at 100%) just like Radion or AI LEDs, 10 set points per day for each channel of lights. Bulb 2 & 5 are on channel 1 which I have my actinincs and channel 2 has bulbs 1, 3, 4 & 6 which I have 2 blue+. coral+ and aquablue special. I miss the shimmer effect of LEDs or MH but the coloring of my colors is AWESOME! Who really cares about cloud cover or thunder storms, they're just gimmicks. I hitched my other EcoTech product too. I was sick of Astrea snails climbing into my MP40 and busting the shaft once or twice a year, constant whine noise no matter how much you adjust it. I went with the new Tunze 6095 wide flow powerhead, the new 7092 two pump wave controller and a 7094.05 night sensor. Very comparable to a MP40 as far as wide flow and performance.
