Better yet, you'll be able to position SPS anywhere in the tank without having to worry about it not getting enough light.

Thanks Scott & Vinny! Which layout do you think would be better given that each light would be covering an area approximately 22"x18"? I plan on mounting with a ball joint so I will likely be able to run them either orientation. Seems like horizontally would be better but I have never seen the light spread. I may mount on 8020 tracks like this too, so I can adjust a bit more, using aither orientation, adjust height and angle.
They will be in a large canopy with lots of ventilation.
