4x4 tent, limited budget, I live in Thailand so I also have limited choices. The 2 lights I was thinking of are:

sunplus 510w, 380$us (lm301h - uv+ir) https://www.sunplusled.com/sundro-s510-led-grow-light_l23583_o.html

cretivity 720w, 400$us (lm281b - uv+ir) https://cretivitygrowlight.com/en-th/products/thailand-warehouse-cretivity-ctii-720w-uv-ir-led-grow-light-2-6umol-j

The cretivity sounds better because of obviously more watts but the lm301h from the sunplus is also interesting.

Should I go for more watts or for the lm301h?

thanks

Piece of advice …. Be careful of orders like ( Shenzhen ) as listed on one of your light choices. China’s Zero-Covid policy bullshit has closed many electronic districts. There is so much drama going on there with the lockdowns and CCP.

Buddy of mine got stiffed from alibaba order ( led bar light ) - payment completed / no shipping info - email ghosted

Personally, if I was given those only 2 options, I would opt for the sunplus, only reasoning is that the UV & IR are adjustable. Plants aren't going to notice a difference between an lm301h and an lm281b diode, but will notice a difference between adjustable UV & IR and non adjustable.

I’d pick the higher wattage, I haven’t fully went into the details about the driver etc, but I’m sure 720w of mainly 301b will produce more light than 510 of 301h, I might be wrong tho, I use 301h. Kgrim has a good point though about the adjustability, I however expect that you’re not getting either in such great of an ammount to be detrimental. I could be wrong tho this is just imo

On second thoughts I’d pick the sunplus, it seems to be a copy of the helion, fantastic light, I also don’t like the central bar of supplemental lights on the crevity

I'd personally go with the sun plus simply for I run a spider farmer se5000 and a Mars Hydro FC 3000 both are UV/IR and there both great grow lights. JS I wish you the best with your grow!
