Very good looking. Can see improvement being made. Is it using e-ballast?

Definitly cheaper than DIY. Look nicer too, hopefully the performance is better than its predecessor.

looks cool haha can see the air ventilation holes at the e-ballast section. good idea comsidering everything is sealed up. maybe can even diy in a bigger light casing and add a computer fan to cool balast down further more

ya but will still be lhot mah much coller doesn't mean not hot. my elbiru e-ballast after on for like more than 2 hours although from the casing u can't feel its that hot but when u touch the ballast, beware of the hottest. it heats up slower, and temp is lower than that of normal ballast thats wat i observe lah wat others think i dunno lor
