Kessil 360 or Aqua.life Halo ?

Here is the thing, I personally use and love Radiums, I had a disappointing experience with Radions a few years ago. Now after installing Kessils on clients tanks, they have caught my eye. So after researching the spectrums of kessils I found one good thread in Japan showing they lack 400nm-420nm. The Halo's have some of that and a whole variety of blues to ensure good color. Has anyone seen these units side by side, or maybe more solid info on Halo's?. I realize they are not awesome in the program sense. Then again, my halides have given me unreal growth and great color plugged into a wall timer. It's results I want more so than gadgetry. But it might be time to lower the electric bill.
In a nutshell, I like the kessils, but fear they may not be using enough variety of blue LEDs for maximum coloration. The Halo's seem interesting, but almost zero feedback online.

I have always thought the kessils are missing something as well. The only reason I never pulled the trigger on getting them.

I love my Kessils.

Kevin, I agree with your comments concern very limited information online with the Halos.

Did you pull the trigger on the Halos?

Any additional information from anyone running Halos would be great!

I've got a local shop that has both, might just be how they are set up but the kessil seems more "crisp" I guess is the word I'd use. Next time I'm in there I'll talk with them
