Did you think of building your own with Crees from reefledlights,no more sodering and you could just screw leds with allen screws,built one in less than a week and more bang for your buck,you can fit in 66 total in a 18x9 inch heatsink.

No I didn't. Though I know could do it. I love the new Mazzara fixture. Looks really nice. So what do you think? How many of the units do you think I need? It's a 60 watt system. I was hoping two would be enough.
Would what you have built cover about a 30 X 30 inch area?

Can you post a link to your build thread. I am looking to build one with reefledlights.
