Well not to perpetuate the animosity, and ledbudguy you could sure work on your delivery
but when I was in the industry we used to order 10,000 LED's at a time and we couldn't buy 3W CREE for $3 a piece, I'm pretty sure couldn't even but 2W for that price. I remember the 3W CREE's in some of the specialty spectrums being over $12 and that was wholesale.
Anyway I'm not crapping on your light choice Hudson becaue MY PANEL DOESNT HAVE CREE's and I'm okay with that
Just pointing this out because if some manufacturer says they are selling a panel with x number of LED's and they use CREE but the panel is cheap then it's probably misleading and they probably only use a few CREE and they are probably the cheaper 1W white ones.
Quite honestly unless you have Trump money, in which case you probably wouldn't be growing your own
, I don't think any of us could afford to buy a panel that had ALL 3W CREE LED's. A 300W panel would be around $3,000
