Hi! Long time Learker first time poster!
So I'm a long time hps user and I'm interested in using LED's, I've basically got 2 questions, what led lights would I need to compete with a 600w hps over. 4 foot by 4 foot footprint? Some sites say there lights will cover this area no problems but forums say that I would need 2 lights at 270 watts each? So that's 540 watts? Not far from the usage off a 600 w hps power consumption ? Then I read that LEDs use 80% less power?
There seems to be alot of conflicting info with regards to LEDs!
Basically I'm looking to reduce my electric consumption without compromising quality...
If so could you recommend a model?
Please advise! Thanks in advance!
