Hello guys

Well, I am not a big lighting pro. So I am considering to buy a Straton Flex 51 to replace my Radion XR30 G5 Blue

The light will be used for my 24" Acro Cube. So far the XR30 G5 Blue is running on 100% intensity and all channels 100%.. The fans are very noisy and I think theres alot of shadowing too.

Ive seen the Straton Pro 102 and thought that might be overkill....

So, would anyone know if the Straton Flex 51 is an upgrade to the Radion XR30 G5 blue?

cheers and thanks

We have no info in the states on them other than wattage and “improved” so it will be a while yet as they are not even being sold yet. I look forward to seeing them in action!

Well, I saw the Straton Pro 102 and this thing is AMAZING!
The light it provides has real T5 vibes.

So I am uunsure if the Flex 51 is really any better.. it has lower wattage and also less LED diodes.
But I hate to crank my XR30 to the max....
