Cool, make sure to get all the details for approval from a mod before posting the groupbuy on the site. Good job for a newbie member

I ordered a 36 LED kit a few weeks ago, ReefLEDs kit did not include power or hookup wires; added about $24 for a total of $423. Rapid was 355 for the kit, 45 for the heatsink and 22 for the fans and wall wart totaling $422.

They are basically the same price.

You orderd the wrong kit my friend just bought one it is has everything with it expect the wires but that cost him only $5 for the 20g wire he bought the 48 led deluxe kit had every thing theres differnt kits. You pick a diffent kit . The 48 led kit cost him $505 with thw wire he bought. And there a box to choose what you want if you leave that blank you wont get it .

The only thing is that you're stuck the heatsink they offer. It would be better if you could choose a different heatsink if you wanted to spread the LED's a little more.

You can that the prem kit. The prem kit doesnt have the heat seat you have to choose the heatsink you want
