    I have the Current Sundial 4x39w 36 inch fixture. It's basically a Nova Extreme with moonlights, individually contoured reflectors (maybe the Nova has them too ?) and built in timers. Has worked flawlessly for over 2 years. Excellent fixture for the price and I've never heard any complaints about them.

    I have a Current Novo Extreme & love it!! I had a problem with 2 of the bulb sockets & they sent me replacements for all of them FREE! They didn't even charge me for shipping...
