    Help me decide on LED

    ^ so is it bullshit? what aspects? (can more than one person confirm?) it seems rather unbiased and he calls out some companies for pretty tiny details. Lots of companies are not reccommended due to lies on specifications. So I guess ill ask again. what are the shit budget brands that...

    Help me decide on LED

    Pretty much exactly what I was thinking. I do car audio so im use to companies trying to rip me off by advertising things that dont matter, like 4000 Max watts! So what things do/dont matter? whats the best way to look at a light and tell its garbage or "a sun"? I was pretty much exclusively...

I agree that the input wattage is irrelevant, i just meant that I would be okay with less effeciency if I gained an increase in light intensity. I dont understand how your 450w, 420micromol light is better than this. It seems...

    Help me decide on LED

    Hey All, first post here. Im looking to replace my HID system to save a little bit on the electric bill. My biggest reasons for doing so is because I do not have any a/c in my grow room so I want cooler temps. I also want something safe. Plugging in these old magnetic ballasts before i leave for...
