Be careful buying any leds from amazon. Majority of those companies inflate their numbers to sell lights. They don't preform nearly as well as advertised and aren't on the same level as top tier led companies like hlg,timber,cutter, plc etc...

That 2000w led from amazon is in all reality probably a 500-600w light that will produce crazy heat compared to proper leds and will not offer you the same coverage.

I would buy cmh or hps before I bought the amazon leds(mars,bestiva,viapara etc...) much better bang for your buck.

true, i was reading alot about the lighting opinions recently, but i find some of the led lights on Amazon are better than hps or cvl as the electricity here is expensive and my tent is big, i also couldn't find much about led strips

Ya you wont find any strips on Amazon, amazon mainly sells the cheaper brands ( mars, besitva, viapara etc) mostly older school tech and outdated lights....Mars has recently come out with the sp250/1000/2000 and they look better than their old stuff, but ive never used them so cant comment further....if you want proper leds ( strips or boards) or will be much better off contacting the companies i listed earlier. They sell only the top bin diodes and the most up to date and efficient lights. I have seen HLG boards on amazon before tho, not sure if they still sell on there or not.

DIY is best bang for buck, buy strips from digikey,cutter....boards from @Prawn Connery or HLG, buy yourself the drivers you need and some material for frames and your good to go. If your handy at all diy is the way to go. You can build with the very best parts and still do it much cheaper than buying pre built.
