I've owned a 400 a 600 and their Purple Reign which is adjustable from 400-1050 watts.
All perform well, Their fans and filters though I've found to be lacking.

lol. ya, if my tent wasnt 5 feet my bed, I wouldnt care so much. although, im completely used to it now. I have a generic controller, but I need a variac if I want to dial down more without the whine. I scooped one of those ipower 6" fans from craigslist for $25, and its just sitting in my closet! using a booster now cuz its quieter and plenty of cfm
