cmagallon Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 no worries buddy:) Thanks, Hey Conrad, count me out for this one, cant get my setup going in time... sorry! Link to comment
earliris Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Just picked up my package today. Had to pay $70 duty charges, which was kinda ####ty... Tested everything out.. all works great! Although i was a little disappointed that the top plastic piece had some scratches on it due to the rail system sticking out of the packaging foam. and i didn't receive the clip on kit! you would think that ordering one of the more expensive fixtures would at least throw one in... all and all was impressed with the quality of construction and the light looks awesome! I cant wait to have this up and running. Link to comment

bigfernhead Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Conrad, Thanks for setting up the group buy. Can you help me with these questions - 1. Will there be a G2-60W? I believe you were going to ask the supplier. 2. Why do you think Semi LEDs are better than Cree LEDs? I saw your post earlier saying that Cree has shorter life span, etc. 3. Are you planning anytime to soon to see if you can do dimming? Thanks. Link to comment

finksmart Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 G2-170wThanks Thanks cmagallon. How do you change the bulbs on the Maxspect? Would I have to solder anything? Link to comment
Sushi Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 The G2's come with quick disconnects. All you need is a screwdriver to take apart the shield and mirror finish to get at the LEDs. The entire process will not take more than 10-20 minutes tops. Link to comment

The entire process will not take more than 10-20 minutes tops. Sorry if I sound ignorant. Once you get to the LEDs you just pull them out like swapping out a light bulbs? I would like to be certain that I don't have to do any soldering. Thanks. Link to comment
