Radion Gen 4 Pro

2 over a 36x36 footprint. They are roughly centered front to rear and are spaced about 12" on center.
 
I have a question regarding the cabling and power supply on the new G4 radians. are the power supplies the same size/ shape as the old ones? Are the connectors the same? Upgrading for me would be painful if I had to rip out all my hidden cabling...

Towards the end of the Gen3 they had switched from the big white brick to a much smaller meanwell driver
 
yes, because they had their own unique hepta style cable, I was able to get extensions because the cable their lights came with was not long enough for my use.
 
Gotta say, I just installed three gen 4 pro radions for a client yesterday and while the lights themselves are awesome, I hate the new plastic power supply blocks. They look and feel cheap as hell compared to the nice white metal power supplies that the older generations had. Plus the new power supplies don't have any mounting brackets or holes to attach them to the inside of a tank stand. I mean come on ecotech, you guys kinda let us down with this one. If we're expected to pay premium prices for ecotech products I expect to continue to be wowed by premium products. These new power supplies feel like a Chinese knock off product.

I wish I had the newer sleeker, smaller power supplies for my gen 3's.
I hate the amount of space the old boxy ones take up.

You are right about the newer smaller power supplies not having mounting holes, but a little diy can easily fix that.

I agree the size of the old power supply boxes could be a bit of a pain in tight areas but they were still so much nicer looking and actually felt like something that s worth the money.
 
They do not for this smaller power supply. I asked them about it as I have a bunch of XR15s I need longer power cords for.

Just finished install the G4 pro and removed the G3 Pro. From what I see the light spread is HUGE. My whole room even in the ceiling has more light lol. Tank looks amazingly brighter and less dark areas.

As for the glare, yes there is a little because the lens bubble out. But it really doesn't bother me after looking at the tank for awhile u actually forget that there even is a glare.

Totally worth up the upgrade. Time to sell the G3 Pro now.

I've been trying to program the gen 4 radions for a client and I've got to ask. How come EcoSmart live will work on an apple IPad but won't work on an iPhone? It's the exact same apple OSX 10.0.2 operating System. Any thoughts?
