What about fan noise???

I say mod it and use the water from the tank to cool everything (or heat your tank water ;)

I have a 4 x 24w Power Module.
So far, so good. Would be better with more bulbs for more colour blending choices.
The fans can be run at several voltages to vary the cooling. Mine are running at about 60%. I can not hear them at all.

I have a 4x48" Sunpower on my 75G.  It puts out a ton of light and the fan is quiet.

It works great for me and I'm very happy with it.

my 6 is quiet. the transformer for the fans is adjustable to allow for faster speed. i have it adjusted to a point where its barely audible.
