The Epistar from original taiwan seems to be qualified one, not directly purchase from China Suppliers, they just use cheaper one. marshydro said they import the epistar chips from Taiwan, the epistar makes full spectrum, that's why many companies use this chip.

Dont trust the shit from China, most of the time it will not actually be epistar chips. I have my own LED's made in China and it's a very complex process, the people you guys buy lights from don't give a flying fuck about anything but money in their pockets

When I have chips packeded in China I use Chinese chips, when I use epistar chips the packaging is done in Taiwan not China

It all depends on how they are packaged, epistar are much better at making red leds than blue leds

Epistar and Bridgelux use the same technologies just because both companies are owned by the same chinese group, it's written in the Bx website in the history section of Bx.

Do not use their old Mars 300 or 600. It is cheap but the light quality is not stable.
This is the reason that i convert to their new tech.

first, your previous post comes across as a Shill And in this one even more so. Why would anyone who bought their junk light and could not get service EVER buy another?

Before white COBs as we know them, Bridgelux was considered very much a second rate company by these forums.

Surprising new stuff from Mars that are far removed from their older products. These seem to be of decent quality and should be able to grow our favorite plant quite well. First good thing I ever said about anything Mars except maybe Sara.

I had a deal with Sara two years ago about their old Mars II 1600. I cannot get contact with her right now. So i guess she has gone.

I got nice yield from their old light. Bro. But i don't like the short lifespan. If there is a new light that has longer lifespan, why i don't choose it?

lol they dont have good build quality at all, a buddy of mine on IG just got banned from them for calling their light a george foreman grill because it got to like 130C or some bullshit. he tested lights for them I guess or was a rep or something. I troll the fuck out of every post telling people their house is going to burn down it they use it. I cant vouch for anything they have put out in the past and when I bought a blurp it was a platinum p600 which I still use to this day after 5 years. not a single diode out and its fucking bright as shit. just for veg tho I flower with lm51c

I know most products in the market from Chinese made, since the labor cost in China is really low, that's why some big companies in USA would set up their factory in China or some other Asian countries for example in India, Vietnam or Thailand, etc. Apple gets most of their parts made in China then ship to USA for assembling. I think not all products from China are bad, some of them are good.I would say Epistar from Taiwan is relatively good compare to most expensive ships in the market, the price /efficiency is acceptable for most growers i think. My pro ii 600watt epistar one from marshydro led, but it's not bad in my opinion, my plants love the light.

As the PCB mounting is done by machine not manually this takes the labour component out of it. The reason China often does things cheaper is because something is lacking. The use less copper on the pcbs as copper is expensive, they also often use the cheapest chips they can find. I buy alot from China and as soon as you want to increase quality to an elite standard it's often more expensive to do things in China than locally.

Sir420 here live & in full effect ✊.. I have been doing deep digging just like the rest of the LED community & have came to the conclusion based off of the data I collected, that Vertical SoG with the latest LED gear is the most efficient (more grams > less wattage)
Growing method for perpetualgrowers looking to maximize efficiency & time instead of quality & quantity! Most clearance for indoor growing is 8-10 ft which can allow 3-5 rows of canopy vertically and the key to me saying using the "latest LED" is because you can dim them to lower wattage while maintaining same ppfd evenly acrosscanopy.. while thinking of my perfect DiY vertical SoG rack system my focus was efficiency over budget over quality over quantity .. because efficiency is those things all in one sort of.. if anyone can correct me LM301b is still the most efficient led strip on the market today in stock lol & how come I don't see any vertical rack journals if it's suppose to be the most efficient way???
Would loveee feedback & constructive criticism I am looking to build a 5x10 system and my ceiling height is 9 feet, how many LED strips would I need to buy along with matching drivers?? Remember pls REMEMBER I want to keep them less than 10 inchs from canopy to minimize wattage &maximize ppfd efficiency so I understand it will be a little more costly... I think I could do 3 stacks high 5x10x9.. 2-3 plants per sqft (separate mother tent to get clones from) anywhere from 6 to 10" away from canopy.. I can't estimate the wattage but I do know whatever I use I can expect a gpw of at least 1.5 due to distance from canopy and "latest LED" tech along with perfect environment & feeding conditions.. how many watts would I need if I am certain to pull on a bad day 1.5 gpw & I'm trying to achieve at least 4-5lb/month?? Plz tag any knowledgeable ppl who would be happy to chat and discuss HOW MUCH WATTAGEDOES MY SPACE NEED TO PULL 4-5LB IN A 3 RACK (MAYBE 4) VERTICAL SOG RACK SYSTEM COCO 5x10x9 ???

Looks like a good light,my Only quibble is WiFi remote control,theyre an extra thing to go wrong and extra cost to fix,on off switch is the Only thing I want, and a timer sounds great until break's, I have gone through Loads of timers.this is the way led lights are going tho

We have different types of LED grow lights so our customers can choose from: Non dimming, knob dimming, panel controlled with builtin timer and dimmer, Bluetooth controlled. Now we are working on 0-10V model.

This light looks very similar with Fluence spyder. But it is much cheaper than Spyder.
I noticed that Mars released a light that is similar with this one. Always like their price point.

Our lights are similar to Fluence spydr. We use SamSung diodes and they use Osram diodes. We offer 5 years warranty and they offer 3 years. Our price is low and their price is high. We both are in USA.
