Electric Sky or SP3000?

[i2am]

Having a hard time picking a new led...
Making the switch from HPS after harvest in 2 weeks
Purchasing 2 for a 4x4 tent

not much out there on the electric sky, especially the new V3
Ive seen the SP3000 and its hard to beat at the price point its at

Mars Hydro SP3000's ... pass. At $810 for a pair, I think you can find better lights for that same $$$. The ES300 V3's are nearly $700 USD each. While the specs are good, you can find equally effective LED's to adequately flower your 4 x 4 for a few sheckles less.

Have a gander at :

TIMBER REDWOOD VS - https://timbergrowlights.com/redwood-vs/
HLG 600 RSpec - https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/collections/all/products/hlg-600-rspec


I have recommended these lights for others growing in a 4 x 4. I am not a representative of either of these manufacturers - I just believe that these rigs will give you the best bang for your buck.

Hope this helps.

Frankie - we'll agree to disagree.

OP - feel free to check this one as well. But I did take a peek at this unit - and it's specs has not been convinced me that it's a better light than the lights that I recommended. The spectral graph looks identical to the Viparspectra blurples that I moved away from last year. There is a little too much blue for the flowering cycle.

Here’s a spectral graph taken by @bk78 also note the ppfd numbers.

Pretty effective at flower 4x4 spaces at almost half the cost

I flowered a 5x5 with a very similar light. Mine has crappier diodes but 70 more watts.

Gentlemen ... I am glad that the light is working for you guys. Happy growing.

But their website didn't convince me that it was a baffo light. I guess I am just a tougher sell.

That's why they're so cheap

It's a gamble but it's paid off for quite a few folks.

I am using 2 es180’s in a 4x4 with 4 plants and it kills it. They are expensive but will grow great medicine with very low wattage.
