That looks really nice! I bet build quality is top notch. I'm having a hard time gathering from the pictures, but is this basically 2 A360W's encased in a panel?

Without learning more about it, and what other benefits it has aside from the USB and access to an app, I would still opt for 2 A360's so the top of my tank remains much more viewable.

Edit: Of course this is just my preference, but I think it would be slick if they put knobs on it instead of the reactive buttons. ;)
 
Yeah I'm wondering if it's 2 lights in a panel, or if there's more to it than that. If it's two lights in a panel how does the price compare to 2 lights. The novel thing about the "cans" is that you can place them where you want and configure them as you wish. Although I could see how this is more for those who want a more traditional "hood" look over their tank.

Also looking at the reefbuilder's site looks like there could be same fancy integration with colors and tablets/phones.

Any hint on when Kessil would launch this? I'm planning on a second light and would wait if this is coming out soon...
 
Built-in controller is pretty robust. It has true WIFI built in also unlike Radion and AI that use RF. Make integration to iPad/iPhone/Droids more seamless.

I was able to played with it for a little bit and I was very very impressed. My only gripe was that Dave didn't leave one behind for me to play with a little longer...lol.

Kessil will be bringing it to our grand opening for showing!
 
If you haven't been to Neptune recently, they have it on display and looks amazing!!

Robert told me its around $900 retail.
