Ecotech Radion G6 question

Hello All,
I have decided that this year will be the year I upgrade my lights. I sm currently running G4 radions and looking to move up to G6. Does anyone know when or if ecotech will be releasing a G7 Radion? Trying to avoid making the investment immediately before something newer is released. Also, any known issues or annoyance? What the difference between the “blue” and “pro” and which one do most of us use? Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Happen to be selling a pair of these... ;)
The primary difference with the pro and the blue is that the pros have more cool and warm whites and the blue subs some of these out for more of a blue spectrum. Both lights can achieve simiilar results, but the blue has the added capacity to run a true AB+ program, which is specific for mixed reefs (especially SPS).
I've run these G6s at low power for just under 2 years via the Mobius app. Never had a problem or concern.

I'm in the same boat. Ecotech G4-G5 was 4 year gap. G5-G6 was 2 year gap. Been 3 years since G6 came out so I would personally wait if it's not an emergency.
