Hey everyone. I've flipped through QUITE a few of the threads that are turned up by doing a search for catalina, but they all seem to focus on the t5 fixtures.
Does anyone here use the power compact fixtures? I assume they are built just as well as the t5 ones are, but I need to know for sure. I'm one step short of ordering a Dual Satellite, because those are the PC fixtures I know and love (not to mention one of the few ones out there that come with *white* lunar lights-- blue lunar lights look so ridiculously fake).
But the equivalent Catalina fixture would save me about $50 or so (and I don't really need the lunar light, as much as I don't want to admit that). Then again, with the Catalina I would have to purchase the splash guard separately, if I'm not mistaken.
Anyway, in order to make an informed decision, I thought I'd ask here. I already love the Current Satellites, and they are on sale right now at the doctors'.
Thanks.
