Anyone know if GooingTop lights are good?

[RenaissanceBrah]

I was recommended this light, The GooingTop QB2000, supposedly almost as good as the Spider Farmer SF-2000, Samsung diodes and Meanwell driver, but with 240W for only $150.

Sounds like an amazing deal, but some reviews were saying the build quality was a bit shoddy (exposed wires, etc... I have to leave my apartment sometimes for a few weeks, would make me a bit nervous. My neighbor checks in for me every few days, but still).

Would be stoked if it didn't seem shoddy... $300 for 480W (was gonna get 2 of them)

Does anyone know if these are good?

Just wouldn't want them to die out after a crop or two.

You're trying to grow stuff that cost $15-$20+ a gram.

For what a person pays for a couple of ounces. A whole better light then that can be had.

Thanks Beehive. Would the Mars Hydro TSW 2000 light be up to par in your opinion?

Brand name doesn't matter.

Does it have 301b or 301h?

Ofc it matters.
Could have 301h all you want but if it was put together by the oompa loompas and it breaks after 2 months of usage that for me is not worth it.
The "brand name" tells you through reviews how reliable your qb is. You cannot seriously compare build quality on something like let's say gavita and kingbrite?

I was directed to the kingbrites, sourced directly from China, that does sound like the best deal for the best quality. I think it'll be like $400 (after shipping) to get 2 x 240W lights... sounds about right yea? I'll probably do that.

Unless you DIY you’re gonna get what you pay for. Saying brand name doesn’t matter is pretty naive to put it politely.
