PFO Pendant or Lumenarc III Mini Stealth DE?

I currently have a PFO 400w hqi set-up. The sockets got messed up so Im going to need to repair it. Before I dump money into it, Im wondering if its worth it to upgrade to the Lumenarc III Mini Stealth DE. I have a 100g corner tank and the pendant sits in the middle. Any help would be appreciated as I need to get this figured out by tomorrow.

I have the same thing ,PFO de with 400watters. I to have had issues with the sockets. I got new sockets from Custom Aquatic. The new sockets were a little labor intensive to install due to the salt corrosion. I basically ended up rebuilding the pendant. It is alot easier for me now as I put new screws in as well (stainless)I am not familiar with the luminarc,but they might have the same type socket and same troubles? Well I just looked at Custom Aquatics site, they are on backorder Im sure someone else has them.

Very much worth it to upgrade to the Lumenarc III Mini Stealth DE pendents if you want more spread.
