So i bought 3 led lights from a guy for 100.00 today.
Are they worth what I payed for them? Wanted to use them as side lights in my grow room.
Two say 600w one says 300w. The guy said something about them being triple diode or something....
They have funky different colored lights and I don't like them compared to the old school HPS light I have but seemed like a fair deal.

They will grow weed, but next time buy white LED's or HID.

They might be useful as veg lights, but their efficiency is so low compared to current-tech diodes or even HID.
Blurples will grow weed, but they use as much power or more than an HPS rig that it doesn't make sense to use them for flower.

Agreed, I am not a fan of blurple lights but they will get the job done. Not optimally by any stretch of the imagination but done none the less.

If they have veg and bloom switches, you can use the reds as supplemental lighting.
What do you use for your main light?

For less than $20 more you could have bought a brand new dimmable 600 watt HID with both MH and HPS bulbs, a reflector, timer, and ratchet hangers that would have blown those lights away.

Except that he already has an HID light and was interested in these as possible supplemental lighting. Stop being so easily triggered.
