Upgrade nano lighting current or coralife?


I have a 29g Oceanic, I was thinking of upgrading to an HQI, but I'm indecicive if to go with the Current Sunpod 150 HQI or the Coralife 150 HQI. I'm leaning more towards the Current, but I wanted to get your thoughts on them.

I have the coralife ones on my 55g FOWLR and the current ones on my 24g reef. They both seem to be good so far. I think the coralife are hotter. I have had the coralife for almost 2 years and the current for like 3 weeks. Yes they are different sizes but both look great. I know this is no help at all but had to share
