    I've got the BoostLED Mu 135 on my 40B and 3 par 30's on my 20L. Love my 40b, it's super bright and the corals pop. When I look at my 20L it's just not the same, and honestly I just don't like it nearly as much. So as the title states I'm looking for a smaller version of the Mu 135 to possibly replace my 3 par 30 bulbs. Boost has one of these on their site, Mu Series 50W LED Module by BoostLED ,but as far as I know it's never been in stock. Anyone have suggestions? I'd probably sell my Par 30's for $50 each so I'm looking for something in the $150 range.

    TIA

    If you are a DIY guy Rapid LED has a package that fits that need. Other then that, lamps are much less expensive then pendant so I don;t think you will find similar quality for 150 bucks.

    Out of curiosity, what type of lights are on your lamps?

    It would be great to see when BoostLED would be willing to release this. ::) I haven't heard much about it, aside form what information is already on the site.

    I have 3 BoostLED par 30 3b3w bulbs over the 20L. Now don't get me wrong the bulbs are fantastic, but when you have a unit like the Mu 135......they just can't compare. I'd snatch up that Mu 50w unit in a heart beat, but as it's not for sale...that's a little difficult LOL.

    Sorry for the delay, but we are making some significant changes... Hoping to bring it to market soon. I know I know... We are a few months late. :p

    Is that a Chinese company?

    IIRC, OCreef has their own version of this 50w LED light. It looks very similar to both of the lights above.

    Well...Keep me informed as I'll probably be the first to snag one from you.
