Please post a review when you get it! I'm dying to know what people think of them too.

I read that the legacy units (sol & nano) will have an upgrade kit.

I'm not sure when that will be available.

Just read this thanks to Wesley's post:

The new controller looks SWEET. And yes, it can play nice with the older units:

"Keep in mind that if you already have a significant investment on legacy AI Sol and AI Nano LED lights you too can benefit greatly from all the awesome new features of the AI Controller. Like the new AI Vega the Sols and Nanos will be individually addressable using the wireless adapter making for super sweet coast to coast weather simulation and more realistic sunrise and sunset recreation. As excited as we are about the AI Controller perhaps the best thing from Aqua Illumination is yet to come with the new AI Director and MyAI cloud based controlling platform which will interface with Aqua Illumination LED products via the new controller. Color us impressed by the new AI Controller which plays nice with the cutting edge Vega as well as the Legacy Sols and Nanos, a move which shows that AI really cares about the customers who’ve supported the company over the years and we can’t wait to see how the online features of AI Director and MyAI will work when fully revealed at MACNA.

Someone has to have these lights on their tank by now on R2R...I would love to see someone's tank with these lights on them and what they think!

Here's a thread from another forum about the same topic, someone did receive theirs already and posted pics of the unit itself:

I just found out my order got delayed till second batch in 2-4 weeks

I have been waiting for someone to say something!! I received 2 e mails that says they are in stock but I cant wait to actually see them at MACNA. I have practically begged AI to demo them side by side with the SOL.
The new controller sounds great but its the new colors that the Vega has that I am interested in.

I agree that SOMEONE must have actually have them!!

I had preordered mine from Reefgeek.com and received them just this past Friday... Haven't had a chance to install them over my tank yet. Still figuring out how I'm going to mount them.
