---- Has anyone heard anything about these lights?? Any press releases?? This is the description that is on the website, although this is really ALL that is there...literally. I found this on www.pacificsunusa.com which is the old website for Pacific Sun LED lights that we all know. I talked to Rafal(PS Rep) and he has not answered any questions about this yet...not sure if he will, but I will update if he does. These things sound pretty frickin awesome!

Hey J,

Rafal has some exciting changes in the works. I'm not privy to all the details nor is it my place to share what he has told me. I let him know about this thread and since he's not a sponsor he asked me to post the following.

“With the new year and new 2011 Prometheus models we strive to improve the product and offer best possible customer service. I hope to see you all in the first half of January 2011 at Barrier Reef's store.“ -Rafal

He also sent me some screen shots of a new Iphone App and indicated he will probably become a sponsor here at RF in December. I'll post the screenshots when I have more time. Finally, he is planning to offer a special upgrade option for anyone with a 2010 model. Details will be forthcoming.

Thanks,
Cy
