48" 4x54W SLR T5 Very High-Output Retrofit Kit w/ Bulbs
•Manufacturer: IceCap
•Dimensions: 46.8" x 10.0" x 2.8" (L x W x H)
•Availability: In Stock - Usually ships in 24 hours
•Item #: IC0017
•T5 very high-output fluorescent retrofit kit complete with IceCap SLR individual parabolic reflectors for each bulb made from 96% reflective German-made aluminum, IceCap 660 electronic ballast with wire harness, power-cord, moisture proof end-caps, standoffs and choice of bulbs from any of our current selection of high-quality lamps. Kit sold complete except for mounting screws. Some assembly required. IceCap ballast engineered to "over-drive" each bulb to approximately 85 watts for superior output. Because the bulbs are being over-driven cooling fans are required to maintain both bulb output and bulb life. (Don't settle for inferior T5 electronic ballasts, like the Workhorse, that are commonly sold with other T5 retrofit kits.) Produces virtually no noise.

Is this a good deal, it comes with the bulbs of my choice, which I us
ATI and UVL in my Current Sundial on my 29. I want to upgrade to a 75, but I am going to build a false wall to have an in-tank refugium and filter and it will also hide my equipment. I don't want a sump underneath the take because I had one in the past and I was to nervous about a flood. So I thought by putting a false wall in I can have the benefit of a sump without worrying about flooding. Back to the point the website says the icecap overdrives the T5 bulbs so instead of 54 watts, I will get 85 watts, I think this will be enough for my corals (softies, xenia, LPS) correct me if I am wrong. Originally I was going to get a NOVA Extreme Pro with 6 bulbs, but by the discription I can get more power with just these 4 bulbs and it is cheaper than the Pro. Any opinios is appreciated, sorry for the long post.
