Is This Light comparable to 1000w HPS

At 9w x 48 lights you're looking at ~430 watts with all of them running full power. Even the most efficient LED will have trouble matching the output of a 1000w hps and i doubt those are the peak of efficiency. You may end up with something equivalent to a 600w HPS if you're lucky, but again, I know nothing about those lights. Best of luck and hopefully someone with more info than me can assist you.

my understanding
diodes that are cheap and overdriven prematurely fail
cheap chinese diodes typically have a fan
those ones look like they have a lens which will filter your light. No need for them lenses but if you have them already I would bet you could grow plants under them somehow because they are 3k

but i totally agree with airwalker here. Your hassle and the quality of those LEDS will not compare to a nice board
