does JEBO make that oydseys model or whateveR? If So, I purchased the newer version of them for my 36" tank. I got it for around 90 shipped I believe. They are fine in quality and probablly same as the expensive ones. The fans are a little noisy and cheap, but I think it's worth the price. After buying it, I upgraded to a 400w MH because I got a really good deal. Oh well. I have a 36" for sale if you're interested, like brand new!

I use the newer jebo model. Honestly, I works fine...especially for the price. THE ONLY THING I DON"T LIKE: I have a tall canopy and had to cut a hole on the side to have acess to the light controls. I believe they should've put them on the back, but they got the great idea to put them on the side. That's the only real down fall that I have.

If you don't have a canopy, the controls on the side are great!! My 36" doesn't have a canopy so it's very accessible. But the unit is great for the price, especially when the coralife ones are basically the same thing only priced a lot more.

I've got the odyssea 36" pc's. I agree that the fans are cheap and will probably need to be replaced eventually. The only other thing that I don't like about them is that there's no seperate switch for the actinics. There's only 2 switches. 1 for the moonlights and one for the tubes. 3 switches would be better IMO. I guess if your handy in electrical you could always modify it. Other than that they're good lights. Definately worth the $.
