    only reason I asked cause Im sure you havent after modding the oddysea cause what you gonna upgrade to? Just makin a point to sea beast that its something to consider if he wants a solid fixture.

    Why SE? I know off topic

    Custom fixture???? that would be cool

    Main reason is I would like to get the Radium bulb. I like the thought of a sweet lumen bright reflector that I can move around too. Instead of a fixed position like these hoods.

    Im looking at the odysseas and they look really good for me to get and upgrade for way less then a current usa. What kind of bulbs and wiring would you recommend?
