     Other Testimonials
 

     Cyr,
 

     I wanted to let you know the panels are up, and look better than I ever imagined. I still have trim, etc to do, but the sky is amazing.
     I do want to order the soffit lights, but I will email you later with specifics.

     Thanks again. It was a treat meeting you and seeing your shop.

     I just wanted to let you know my star ceiling is complete and is even better than I imagined. I documented the
     whole construction process on AVSforum with the final pics on this page
          www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1117148&page=9

     The modification to the mounting process and embedded acoustic panels worked out perfectly although it 
     was tight. I had *just* enough fiber to wire up a second comet position in case the central one is too
     annoying in the theater. Judging by the email I have gotten there should be a few people
     ringing you for quotes!

     Dear FOSI,

     After a successful install, I am excited to say that both my customer and I are incredibly pleased
     with the finished   FOSI Star Ceiling. When my client inquired about star ceilings, I began my initial research.
     It did not take me long to decide on FOSI after reading about the more than 35 years your company has had
     in the fiber optics business. I felt safer placing my business with an established company that had done
     many commercial applications. I chose to go with the star ceiling kit, which came with instructions and a star
     layout template. After installation, I can safely say it makes much more sense to install the Panel System so
     that labor costs and time can be cut down. With the Panel System, all you have to do is attach the panels
     to the ceiling and the panel matrices to the illuminator. In one day, a 10’ x 12’ star ceiling is easily installed
     at a reasonable price. It was great that the entire star ceiling, including comets, shooting stars, constellations,
     and the dimmed Milky War, was powered with the use of just one illuminator. The fact that the FOSI Star Ceiling
     is astronomically correct has been a great selling point. People love when I tell them it’s the real night sky.
     I look forward to working with your company in the future.
 

          Best,

     Good Morning Cyr Ryan,

     Thank you and God bless you. I received my star ceiling on January 12, 2009. I really want to thank you for
     your prompt delivery and all your hard work. I am so grateful for your correspondence by phone and by fax.
     Thank you SO-SO-SO much for everything. I will tell everyone how wonderful your company is.
     Great service and great everything else.
 

          Your Customer for Life,

     Dear FOSI,

     I have very much enjoyed the star field, now that it is finished. I made several modifications to it, including
     adding a few favorite constellations. including Orion, the Arc of Capella, the big Dipper and the Little Dipper
     properly aligned to true north, and I filled up all the rows in the matrix Milky Way.
     I also colored Betelgeuse orange/red because it is a red giant star.
 

          Sincerely,
          Philip - San Antonio, Texas
 

     Thank you for processing the return so quickly. And thank you for helping with this project. I could not be
     more happy with the way it turned out. The [star ceiling kit] process that you laid out was time consuming
     but easy going and easy to understand. Everything worked out perfectly. The choice of board that Cyr
     had recommended...brilliant....could not have been a better choice. I have attached a few pictures, something
     like this is not easy to photograph.

     Thanks again and if anyone wants to follow in my footsteps I will definitely recommend Fiber Optic Systems.

     We want to let you know how much we love our sky. We had the ceiling painted dark blue. An artist
     came and airbrushed a full moon (which is 3 feet in diameter) and the Milky Way stretches 31 ft. across the
     sky in iridescent paint. The fiber optics illuminate the paint and it looks amazing. We added a small
     spotlight to the moon to make it pop.  Our customers don’t know what to say when they walk through the
     door of Bella Luna Ristorante in Ludlow, VT and look up at the sky. It is not just a ceiling, but a night sky
     that most people have never seen before inside. It blows them away. I think the shooting stars and the
     comet are the kids’ favorite.  Thank you very much for helping us design our sky. The set up and installation
     was quite simple. The template of the stars made this 25 ft. by 31 ft. ceiling look so real. When we opened
     the boxes and saw almost 5 miles of fiber optics and that tiny drill bit, we were a bit worried. After reading
     everything and calling you a few times, your system is really simple to install, the directions were very easy
     to follow and the matrix light box was easy to set up. We used a dremel tool to drill the holes and there were
     a lot of them with a ceiling the size of ours. You just have to remember to take your time and the results are
     great. To think the entire sky is run on one light bulb. We want to thank you for all the extra help in putting
     this work of art to life. I even put the layout of the sky you sent me with the star layout and names
     of the  constellations in the back of our menu, the customers love it.  We have already recommended FOSI
     to a number of people. I wouldn’t be surprised if you don’t get a few phone calls. Your company is great to
     work with and very helpful. We have had a few customers ask us if we would install a sky in their house!
     We told them to call you! If you are ever in Ludlow, Vermont, you have to come up and see it. 
     We only opened the restaurant on August 12, 2007 and already the sky is the talk of all Southern Vermont!
 

          Thank you again.

     One reviewer said, "[We] particularly enjoyed watching the stars on the ceiling twinkle and the occasional
     shooting  star pass by. Overall a very relaxed and inviting atmosphere."

     The ceiling is installed and looks fantastic. The students are VERY excited about learning! Thank you for all
     of your planning and help with the project. I cannot say enough good things about everyone at FOSI!
