i'll offer a few cents too...
I haven't run gavitas on any sort of large scale, but I've seen a few 9-16 light rooms of them, and from what I can tell they are better suited towards lighting a specific area whereas the paps seem to throw light everywhere. I never get hot spots under lights with e-paps but i've definitely seen hot spots under gavitas, and i've also noticed sharper shadows under gavitas than e-paps which tells me there's more light being thrown straight downwards. So i guess it depends on what you are going for - lighting a table or a smaller space you'll probably like gavitas, if you're trying for a massive sea of green or have dense plants you'll probably like the paps more.
unless you take the reflector off and you have flat white rooms.... I am running all my gavitas barebulb. Loving it.

Flat or Vertical?
Flat. But you could do vert no problem. You need the gavita fixture to do this as they made it VERY easy to remove the hood. Kudos to gavita on design. IMHO it outshines the e pap. plus 1 for hanging it, and plus 1 for reflector removal.
Hate to burst yer bubble cap but the e-pap (1000w at least) comes unassembled, so you don't have to remove the hood if you're buying new units :)
