Well once again, Umnitza has chimed in with some of the best comments yet, ha!

I love to see a vendor waste so much time trying to scare other people away from buying someone else's product, if that doesn't show the true side of the vendor, than I don't know what would! Truth is, its funny to read, but you just have to learn to deal with the constant flaming from Umnitza, as it is part of his business process, he has been doing it for years, and I or anyone else aware of it doubt that it will stop any time soon, simply long drawn old explanations or so called "tests or comparisons" that mean absolutely nilch in the end, with nothing to back them up.

Now that that is off my chest here is the deal with our company guys: there is no conspiracy as to V1,V2,V3 and coming out with a new version 8 months or so after another is introduced. We take the money we make in the business and dump a good deal of it back into engineering the product. We are constantly looking for new ways to increase the efficiency, brightness, and drop the price. Technology keeps getting better and better, maybe Umnitza doesn't want you to know it, but its true. Therefore, if there is a breakthrough in new technology, we will absolutely apply it to our design and bring that better technology to the consumer, because heck, I know I want the latest and best on my car, so we know the consumer does also. Its no different than technology getting better in computers or cell phones.

The V2.0 was and still is to this day brighter than the V1.0, that is a fact. The actual brightness difference will range from 1.5x - 2.0x brighter than the V1.0 depending on if the V1.0 was an earlier or later production run. While Umnitza has useless tests run in a lab(they are useless because they prove nothing, our tests are done measuring the light intensity AT THE ANGEL EYE RING, not at a spot on a table), and all of our tests are completely replicative if there was ever any question to the claims. While the V2.0 is brighter than the V1.0 it is correct that it is not a huge noticeable difference, and we never claimed it was, it is definitely brighter, but not amazingly so. We have run tests on the new version being released soon, and we have some very good indicators of how much brighter it is compared to the V2.0. We have also done some side by side comparisons with customers, including a few over the last few days in California, and the brightness difference is very apparent.

In the end, we have patent-pending technology that is the best, and I refuse to waste my time bashing other vendors, its not going to happen in one of my posts, so look elsewhere for that immaturity, I don't have the time.

not add wood to the fire but seems to me like umnitza was just givin his point of view on what he's done on his product.. and Im guessing all we would like to see as consumers or a product is more proof or side by sides as you claim to have.. but many still wonder...

and another thing I guess its a mind game thing that if another vendor comes on here and states certain facts about his product or development to just plain classify that as bashing or immaturity which i dont think is what UMNITZA did , Thus making oneself look like the bigger person and causing more doubt in the minds of people who believe the other vendor to be more credible. Im a marketing major and their will always be competition in the market and threats from potential competitors in any commerce that is done... neither company has a monopoly here.. and you guys are very lucky because both of you regardless of whats said here are still in business and making $.. so congrats to the both of you.. I wont say anything else in respect to the subject this is getting outa line.. every 1 just be happy with whichever angel eyes you have and content that they are some sort of white and not factory yellow... and to the makers just keep making big paper $ with the products you have. THE END

Is there going to be a trade up program again where V1's were sent back for discounts on V2's?
