How many watts? do you have a picture of the fixture and how you mounted it in your canopy? I have two fixtures on the way, and I've been trying to figure out how I'm going to mount them. Oops, the first picture just showed up after I asked the quesiton.

96 LEDs on five foot long tank

Unless you're way overdriving them, 96 LED's should be closer to 125W I believe. Are the XR-e or XP-G?

Glad you like the LEDs. Just keep airflow on the heatsink and the LEDs will last 50,000+ hours.

I'm driving 60 around 700mA and got 186 Watts here is a link to the test and PAR readings
