Overall it’s a nice system, but looking at the pictures it appears to just be a smaller System 70. The Cube shape and e-lite are very nice, but we were hoping for a bit more ingenuity in the tank, stand, sump area. It’s nice, very nice. But when I use nice so many times to describe an item, it shows just that… it’s nice.

Then again it’s not always best to change certain elements… MSRP on the “limited edition models” should be ~$1600-2000 (e-lite included). More info on pricing will be available soon.
To go along with the e-lite, Elos made the e-power. Looking at the individual units I am liking them. Simple aluminum round pendent…. The parabolic half-sphere shape blends form and function. Job well done.
But then they went ahead and added something else, The Bracket… The Bracket that reminds me of a die-cast Star Wars model my neighbor Timmy had when I was growing up. While I do like the fact is has a place for a supplemental LED e-lite, we are really not digging the entire unit. In this case the individual parts are much greater than the sum, or should we say space ship?
Joking aside, we must give Elos much credit for creating a modular lighting system; especially one that integrates directable Metal Halide pendents and LEDs. If it can perform, it is still a much more attractive option than others currently available.
We have a feeling Elos had one of, if not the nicest booth displays
