HI I got this LED fixture, http://www.ecoxotic.com/panorama-marine-led-system.html and was wondering if anyone know the par readings for it. I go the 24" fixture.

I can't help with your par readings, but I bought this fixture for $60 from a guy who had used it for 2 months... it's awesome!

I did see one in person though and looked like it had the same intensity of a regular old Stunner Strip. We compared the two and saw no difference besides the fact that this one costs hundreds more than the Stunner Strip from Ecoxotic. I would like to know the PAR of any of the Ecoxotic Stuff though as I have never seen it done.

The stunner strips are only 12 watts while my light is 25 so do any of you have an estimate of the par for mine? Is it just straight up twice the stunners or does it not work like that?

I don't have exact measurements but its going to be fairly low. Softies with possibly some LPS up near the top. Expect PAR to diminish pretty quick with depth.
I used the panorama pros for a while and outside of some color enhancement and pop, I saw very little to know growth compared to a single DIY LED strip with 3W chips.

+1 to the above. 24w is not a light of light, regardless of type. Also, they are 12k whites, which boost PAR numbers but actually give out little useful light in comparison with other leds.
