My father always taught me that if it looks too good to be true it probably is. I have some JEBO lights I ordered a while back (48 inch 220 watt double strip) and although they run a little hot they were more than worth the money (shipping included). I have received good service to date from Aquatraders (2 orders). If I don't get negative feeedback I'm going to take a chance.

The price scares me (for the "too good to be true" factor), but the product looks amazing.  If you get it, please let us know how well it works!

I personally think its too good to be true but it looks sweet!

Is it 500W?

I'll give you this advice, it's a piece of **, I had one that I won from the Montreal Aqua club, It was defective brand new in the box, I exchanged it three times, but still the same problem, I think there really good as long as you don't plug them in the outlet!!!

But it's always up to you to buy it!

I use ebo jager in all my tanks, they are great

Bad heaters are the worst.  In my experience, if you have to cut corners somewhere in a tank, don't cut corners on the heater.

The thermostat could break and overheat your tank, killing your fish.  My fiancee also had a cheap heater leak internally and electrocute her fish.

It's definitely one thing you want working 100% guaranteed.

Remember my heater disaster? Fish soup.  Heater had come with a kit.... now I have a proper one.

I am convinced JEBO heaters stay on the shelf... if the lights go out no problem... if the heater stays on the fish die!

Thanks All...

It's just too good to be true... can't heat my tanks up with you...
