2112- The difference in the halos and the hps is this

halos- white light,more wattage , bulbs blow easier, cost less ,penetrates more in clear water

hps - amber light , less wattage more amperage ,takes a few minutes to get to full power , I have not blown a bulb yet , penetrates muddy or colored water better

I run all my cords out of the way and don't let them stand in water , been using a genny for about 5 yrs now. So far no problems.

Reel Twiztid- Here are some more from your '' honey hole '' from last weekend.
