Now that it has been a couple weeks, how are you liking the Straton Pros compared to the G6 Blues? Are the Straton Pros similar in color the the G6 Blue's SPS setting?

There are a lot of great lights out there so I am not going to say that they are the best because I think that it depends on a lot of factors. I do have to say that I really liked the originals but accidently fried one of them so didn't hesitate to upgrade to these.

Check what ATI says.
"IF" I remember correctly they don't recommend being inside a hood.

They are passive cooled but a properly vented cabinet shouldn't post a problem - easy enough to test though. A low noise fan could be installed to direct air over them. I know a few who have Coral Care Gen 2's in cabinets although they have a larger heatsink but it does include the power supply.

I have 4 fans, 4 vent holes drilled in the top of my canopy and a chiller. I have a mix of lights that I am happy with in my canopy but just curious in case I ever decided to change out my lights.
