depends what you're looking for. If you need a massive footprint get the magnum xxxl, it projects a 5x5 footprint very evenly. If the space you need to cover is smaller you should go with the radiant, as it will reflect more intense light over a smaller area. I've got both hoods going in different setups and I love them both equally. The magnum xxxl with a 1,000w light and a 5x5 foot tent is a killer setup.
Due to the foot print and quality of the reflective/dimpled material used for the lining, I went with the Magnum XXXL. I did a lot of research before investing and the literature and rec's all led me to the Ocho...
Take a look at the SunSystem Block Buster- I will be going from the XXXL to these soon hopefully. Gonna be a slightly more concentrated square footprint over the XXXL.
i know the blockbuster had a lot of problems with it when they first came out. i hear the new ones are pretty good, but i haven't seen or heard of anyone using them yet.
