So that is the website that has the full spectrum led grow light, and i was wondering if anyone has used or even heard of this light. The nm scales seem to be right and has the uv leds in it. It sounds light a good lamp but it's pretty cheap as far as leds go and was wondering what people thought. Thanks for your help:weed::weed:bongsmilie​

It's a huge rip off. Go on ebay, look up LED Grow Lights, and cruise through some of those listings. I've bought 6x 90w UFO's off ebay (2x tri-band, 1x quad band) for under $150 apiece. I've also got a 450w panel that I grabbed for ~$550 (I think it went up now). The LED grow industry is getting much more competitive, so most of the items are about the same quality regardless of price; so shop around, don't stop at one site. Private sites like that have HUGE mark-ups on LEDs. All the LED's I've purchased work great, they veg amazingly and the flowers are dense and resinous.

If you want a LED with UV as well, take a look at this
http://cgi.ebay.com/300w-Hydroponic-UV-UFO-LED-Grow-light-2009-GB-Winner-/280520074643?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item41504ca593

25w vs 300w, only $100 more. But, id recommend browsing through a few more auctions, just search "led grow light"

If you want some feedback on some light, let me know a price limit and a size area you want to cover; I can try to link you some lights that should work really well.

Could you link me a good one for a 2x4 space?
Does the light work from a distance or is it like CFL's where they need to be 2-3 inches close?

If you've got the money, I recommend a 300w panel. It's around $500.

This is the same company that I got my 450w panel from, it takes 15+ days shipping, but it has worked great for me so far.
You can hang it 12 -18" above the canopy, no problem (similar to an hps), and still get pretty good canopy penetration. But, touching the light won't burn the plants like an hps.

Edit: If money is no issue, by all means get the 450w or even 600w panel. I recommend the quad-band (4 color; usually red, blue, reddish-orange, and white).
