wondering if anybody would be interested in drivers.
I should have 2 Vortech MP40w Gen 2 drivers that are only 4 months old
and
2 new Vortech MP40w Gen 2 drivers- new
These would work great for turning your MP20 into an MP40wireless

Any ideas on how much you'd want to spend to part with it?

I was thinking of asking $30 for the 4 months old ones and $40 for the new ones.
Just checking interest at this time to figure out which way I am going to go as far as additions to my own system.

The Driver does not include the powersupply (need that myself ;) ). Power supplies run approx $50 straight from Ecotech or less if you can find it on Ebay, etc.

Marinedepot sells the upgrade kit (driver and powersupply for $150 just to give you an idea of retail cost)

I should have the two new ones available end of next week. I can bring them into town (perhaps meet around Polly's or Reefs2u)

I can take a new one then since those would be what you need to get rid of first.
Either one of those places are really close to where I work. I'm at Randolph AFB. I have class on Monday and Wednesdays starting at 5:00 so if you are around any other time than that let me know and I can meet you at either.

it looks like I will get my ES drivers in about 3 weeks. At that time I will also know what all is included in my ES kits and depending on that I will also be able to potentially include more than just the driver with the sale of the MP40w drivers.
So... all of the drivers (2 almost new and 2 brand new) will be available in 3 weeks.
I can bring them into town a that time.

No problem and no hurry here. So are you running 4 MP40W's then, and if so what difference will you get with the new ES kits that isn't already available?

I currently have 2 MP40ws on a 125g tank (one on each side)
I am adding 2 new MP40s because I am getting ready to upgrade from the 125g to a 215g
I am planning to have one or two MP40s in the back of the new tank in addition to the ones on the side and I think the ES upgrade has a setting for that sort of configuration. Other than that the lagoon mode, random reef, pulse/wave, synchronised or anti-sync appear to be the same. Not much difference I guess if you just run one or two Vortechs but maybe a difference if you are planning on running several pointing in different directions.
Might end up just a waste of money on my part since I also could run the regular wireless MP40s independently and probably achieve something similar but I figure I give it a shot. :)

received my ES drivers this morning and can set up a date/time for me to bring the MP40 wireless drivers into town.
Need to confirm with people that previously posted interest.
I know I still have one genlty used (only 3 months use) driver available. Got to check on the others.

Sounds good. I think brewercm is around Polly's too so we'll check with him and perhaps meet up at Polly's this week.

UPDATE:
1 used units sold already
2 new units pending with aquasport and brewercm

1 used unit potentially still available
