Radion expert help

[magicalmets]

I have a drop ceiling and would like to hang the Radion with the hanging kit Ecotech Marine offers. Would I be able to do it just with the hang on kit alone or do I need to buy the rail as well?

I provided a picture of my ceiling

I am no expert by any means... but really.... really.....?!?!?!?!?!?!
You want to hang $700 lights on fiberboard over a glass tank filled with rocks and water?!?!?!

you can run the wire thru the tile and attach to a stud in the floor above the drop ceiling

If it is just one radion, you could just use your own wire (home depot sells very similar wire) with the included eyelets or you can just buy the premium hanging kit which includes premium design fittings. You do not need the rails for one light.

What I would recommend (if attaching to the ceiling tile) is using a piece of plywood on the topside of the tile for the screws to bite into. Should be very strong and very easy to do.
