It might ...
Although 1500 k is my approx ..(taking into account the % of red / FR wls of the " hot white It might be 2000 K or 2500 K as far as I know ...
I've to ask for an average value...

Maybe I'm way wrong here...
But if normal warmest whites do have an average temp of 2500 K ,how much it would be for whites with a large peak at 655nm ?
(And more FR there of course ,yes..It is needed.. )
Nice pic ,there....You mean (by the peaks ) that only with these spectral graphs you get a temp of 2000-1500-1000 K ?
I think I disagree,there.... Ideal Black body irradiation :
I.e ..:


It depends from different kinds of phodphors used....
Our horti leds have totally d;ifferent relative power spectral curve..But ,I'm pretty sure that they are "warmer " than 2500 K
Pinks are,for sure ..... And trust me ,they are really powerful...(approx 400 mW output with nitride phosphors... )


candlelight dinner for the ladys?
Ladies always love that stuff....
When I will light 6-8 of them,with some ladies underneath,
then we will all know ,if it is a funny trick or no ...
Isn't that so ?
“Rhodes is here, here is where you jump!” ,we say where I come from....
Or.....Hic Rhodus hic saltus.If you like it in Roman...

We'll we see...
I promise you that ...
It might be a failure..
It might not...

All one has to do-in order to find out the truth - is take the jump and not just sit ..babblin(like me ? )
or just judging / predicting the unknown.......

....
I 'm just restless ..
I can't stay attached to what is taken for granted..
I like playing with fire....
Taking jumps to meet all sorts of chaos...
And maybe-who knows- find the truth....
Make order out of it....

(That's how it goes,my brother for some of us ....
It's not bad....Someone has to "stay back home "..
Someone has to "travel far away ",to the " unknown "..
.)

At start we wanted the same average yield from a 400 Watt HPS ( at 0.5 -0.75 'gpw' ),with just 1 / 2 of the power
( Hmmm..Let's see ,if we are-already- there with cheapos onewatters ,with wide angle...Suprises might occur... )
Now we've set new goals ...
(with our own leds ..Way better quality...)
Harvest the same average yield from a 400 Watt HPS ,with just 1 / 4 of the power .. ?

200-300 gr from 100 Watts... ?

That is going to be way super-funny trick ,If we manage to do it...

...

...
You may just sit back and relax ,laughin' your @$$ off......
We'll do the rest...
That's for sure...

He who laughs last, laughs best.
Another moto ,from where I come from....

To us the only " Energy " that really makes sense is the one of overall 'power' multiplied with 'overall' time...

So either i.e 400 Watts x 100 hours or either 100 Watts x 400 Hours ....
Same energy ...
Same plants or same yield...?
Think again....
Way different.....

800 umol/sec / m^2 for 12 hours per day....
400 umol/sec m^2 for 15 Hours a day .....

....
He-he...Oppsss..
Not yet....

Let me introduce you to the ultra-mini led panel...

a unique design, made by a led strip cutted in four pieces and an ultra thin piece of cardboard for a better and lighter set up...

Powered by a 12V mobile phone charger...

take a glimpse...(lets hope it will work...:eyesmoke: )

well done mister!
...and Higher[δηλαδή: και σε ανώτερα]:eyesmoke:

Well,there's no chance that we can go that small ,due to different leds used...( in size terms )
As for power ,13 Watts are pretty nice & gentle to canopies...

We are going to have both gen 1 ( ordinary whites & reds ) & Gen 2 (enhanced pinks & whites )..
As gen 2 panels are going to cost a bit more ...
Both of them they are going to be available in the " ASL 24 " format....

Maybe ,gen 2 ,panels are going to be,also, in the format of "ASL 13 "..( small floodlights )
After testing.... ( i.e. if 6 x 13 is proved to be better than 3 x 24 ....)
..Yes ...Ganja's configs,are certainly "champs"...

Gen 1 ,is already being " trimmed " to perform as efficiently as possible.....
Gen 2 is going to be under some heavy tests & experiments ,pretty soon...
...
We'll not rest ,until we " bury" Hid lighting (regarding plant growth ) ,really deep ,once and for all....
..
Call me crazy.....
I rather like it,that way....
Against all odds...
....
Trust me...
You haven't seen anything yet...
( Compared to what's comin'... )
....
And specially me ,now I'm pretty pissed off...
I'm gonna have the last & best laugh ..
No matter what...
.Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes ...

I'm about to start my third indoor grow. I will grow in a tent 80hx60x60cm from black/white plastic sheet. I will plant one or two (still thinking because i'm afraid the male fact) seeds in growbed like soma's of soma seeds. The strain is a crossed strain from my second grow kali mist female cross "cretan" hermie (short but not indica effect, with sativa's thin leaves but smaller than my hand the biggers). For veg i will use one cfl 80 watt 6400k and for flowering i'm thinking about to add a led panel of ten leds. I want to use only one colour for an economy order because on www.satisled.com led orders start from 10 units and you, brothers from greece, understand the situation. I already have a heat sink 20x30. So my question is what colour of led to use parallel with 6400k cfl, possibly red or warm white?

I was 90% sure about this. Thanks Captain. I forget to write that i will do scrog (for first time). When i will start in few days i will start a post. I saw you tell about 13 format panel, how much cost it to you?

you can buy 10 pieces from every "color" on ebay... :)

Now i need a help, kiss-ass i will diy led panel of 20 - 22 leds ,
question no.1 what type (not color) of 1w led do you reccomend , and where can i buy them( e bay or any pay pal store please )
is this ok http://www.ebay.com/itm/10pcs-1watt-warm-white-High-Power-1W-LED-Lamp-Light-DIY-bead-B-/261050844158?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cc7d7c3fe


thanks and KING REGARDS :peace:
If you're gonna buy some cheapos for experimenting mainly (and have some pretty decent harvests with low-budget equip ) ,
just go for any asian made led...
You might get lucky and get some nice ones...

If you're gonna invest in a serious led panel,then either you go high quality brands ,
or find a decent manufacturer to build your leds ,within your given "specs" & "standards"...

I'm afraid ,those are the most common options...

SDS, if you get those "pink" and "hot whites" made I might be interested in offsetting your cost with the purchase of a few of them. I have yet to find a company that is willing to make a run just for me. I would prefer 3 watt diodes, but using 1 watt leds might work in some cases. Send me the .pdf of the datasheet if you get one.
