    I'd just go look at some build threads and see what catches your eye! Seems like alot of people just use the heatsinks with no real "hood"!

    Save yourself the trouble and order some Mean Well drivers now. Not many people including myself have had good luck with them. Mine went about two weeks.

    yes these kits are very crappy!!!!!!! the dimmers dont work and they dint send any thing to hook power up to them thank god reefwerks came to my rescue and showed me modular led ill be buying from them for now on. there stuff is so simple it cost a little more but at least you know your getting something good and they have videos on there site how to wire everything. my kit came with no instructions and there web site has nothing on it. also tech support from aquastyle dosnt exist i got one reply from them asking my order number and thats all ive heard it been 4 weeks.
