I know this looks confusing, but if you've ever went to HelloLights website,
and you know the parts, you shouldn't have too much trouble... If it's just
totally confusing, skip this post and I'll try and sum it up better in
another post...

just realized my first setup didn't include the Actinic lights... so that's
pretty much a wash now.. it doesn't really matter now that I look at it,
they're both the same price.... but is there any difference between the two?
