I was talking with someone that runs a larger grow and he told me he figures $1000 for each HPS hood he sets up. That's with top quality components,hood,bulb ballast,fan,ducting and so on. It sounded a bit high to me but top of the line stuff isn't cheap.

Of course...if you buy 1000w DE phillips or even a regular 1000w lumatek(70 €)with a Black OG reflector (250 €)a good ballast (250 €)...
Do you include vent an a/c to reach 1000 $?

I'm thinking he's figuring in a portion of HVAC costs per light.

I just heard the Heavy T interview today. On behalf of everyone here, thank you. You did a great job representing what we are all about. Your answers were on point and you shut down that nerd that seemed to call in just to promote his store.

At first, I was scratching my head about the host saying, LES, LES, LES lights not led. But as I continued to listen, I started really liking the idea of labeling COB based lights as "LES lights" it sets us all apart from chinese blurple pushers. From a business perspective, differentiation is paramount in a crowded market & I think coining the term LES grow light will help you and others stand out.

cheers to ya bro.

Exactly and it I'm hoping it will set us all apart from the lies these other led companies have pushed for years. Really gave led a black eye.

Thanks I tried I was definitely nervous and tired as well. I hope these test grows are a shout out that led/Les is here to stay and will be king. HID isn't done by a long shot but at least there are viable options that outperform them by a worthwhile margin.

Your project is looking good. Another member mentioned scotty saying he'd be interested in my lights. Well after seeing that beautiful piece your custom building him maybe he will appreciate the concept and have a chat with me about being a sponsor or something. Have a great one.

So I hear lol. Actually farmer in the sky will be testing a couple different lights one starting in a week or so and the other later on when they do higher wattage comparison side by side grows.
