I personally would never base my decision on warranty.. especially a 10 year warranty. Because in 2 years, you're going to want that new one that just got released with the upgraded Samsung diodes, more efficient drivers, and a larger footprint for less money.
I def get ya on that, but i like these diodes and cant see them getting that much better imo. Its really a great light. The chilled 6 bar 1000 caught my eye as well but they are a bit more with a 1 yr warranty. Def a tough. Decision.

3,096 total diodes, 3500k white leds 2, 992 pcs. The lm 301h 3000 and 4000 k mixed. 64 red leds. The lh 351h deep reds. Infra red leds 4 pcs the lg uv leds. 4 pcs. 32 pcs of the new lh 351 h royal blues . 120 degree lens on all leds. The whites are 500 watts the blues. 50 and reds. 100 with 3 dimmers. Its overkill for sure. The uv and irs are controlled from the red dimmer. The touchscreen timmer lets you do anything you want automatically. Im very happy with it but its heavy 40 lbs and a pain to raise In a tent due to it being 41 x 41inches. The bars are very cool. The driver case gets to like 100 degrees so its great if hot weather is a concern very cool for the amount of light it produces 3.0. Umols

I haven’t picked one up just yet, but leaning more toward the slim 650s. The ChilLED Ultra is looking pretty good just a little pricey. I’ll keep u posted tho
Just had my first harvest with the 650s very awesome did a very good job I'm very happy with my purchase save a lot of money on the electric bill too

Barney’s farm mimosa evo 8 week 3 day veg from seed then flip under optic slim 650s……just hit week 2……she’s takeing up my entire 5x5 tent….. for me the ability to control white red and blue spectrum separately is amazing especially when you’re working with strains you’ve never worked with before this is the first time I’ve worked with Bernie’s farm anything and I was able to keep her stretch under control by lowering the red and upping the blue spectrum. To keep the node spacing more ideal I’m starting to see bud let’s form so now I dial the blue back to 60% and up the red to 40% to help facilitate bud growth more than vegetative growth……
