Okay so I have already mentioned these lights in another post I have but figured I’d make a post here in case anywone was wondering about these lights. I have had this 480w HLG 550 clone from Shenzhen Bava company for about a week and a half. I must say that so far, I am very impressed. It pulls a true 480 watts from the wall and is ridiculously bright. Everything came assembled so it was as simple as hang and turn on. I have not one scratch on the boards, every LED looks great and the heat sink is very durable feeling. These are suppose to be LM561C diodes and from what I can personally tell, they are. The people at Bava were very helpful, responsive and spoke pretty good English. I would have rather bought from an American company, but the simple fact is, I can’t afford to drop $1000 on a light for hobby growing. So, to Alibaba I went since I knew I wanted a quantum board. That’s when I found this diamond for just $352 shipped. I honestly expected a low quality product but I couldn’t be more impressed. Also, it only took 5 days to get here in America from Shenzhen which was awesome. I also find the dimmer to be convenient, and is a feature HLG doesn’t offer. If I could come up with just one complaint this far, it would be heat. Obviously this is much more powerful than my 200 true watt blurple light I was using so it will put off more heat. My temps went from about 74 to 78 when I switched. Nothing turning the exhaust up a bit and closing the vent in that room a bit didn’t handle. I’m also using this light in a 2x4 tent so it’s a bit overkill lol. Anyways, here’s some photos of the light and a link. I look forward to seeing if there are any other quantum users out there.
