Just curious if anyone has heard rumors of a new AI unit coming out soon to replace the Hydra series? I really like the prime but its a little small for what I need. I emailed AI but haven't heard back. I don't want to buy the Hydras if something new is coming out in the next year!

If something new is coming out you will probably hear about it next month at MACNA

Prime 26 & Prime 52?

I expect to see them soon. If not, somebody's missing a great idea and opportunity!

I want supplemental stuff, strips that can be controlled off the same software and hardware... The big units are nice, but sometimes you just want that little extra something, or a bit of light in a specific place.

Please?

They seem to be pretty up with the latest LEDs already, maybe an incremental upgrade on that end...

Thats an good question... Hasn't EcoTech bought them out and thus were effectively winding down their stuff to not compete w/Radions?

Spacey :)

Yep, ecotech bought AI. Last week I emailed AI customer support to ask if it possible to upgrade Hydra to Vega and received a reply from ecotech support person stating that it would actually be downgrade. I think they are positioning AI to be a mid-range brand and putting radions on higher end. I wonder if 26 and 52 were designed with help from ecotech, since new led puck configuration is more similar to radions.

Interestingly enough...both went on sale for 10% off today.

I predict all new products from both being announced soon...but that means 6 months to mass availability and 4 to 6 months after thar for "bug working"....

AI and Ecotech just went 10% off. I am hoping to see something new at Macna in a few weeks. I emailed AI and they wouldn't give anything up.

That seems to be their "modus operandi"
