Damn guys. Truly, take a hit and calm down a bit.
It comes down to this. We are a VERY successful provider of LED grow lights for the hobby and commercial markets. We firmly believe we have affordable, quality LED lights with that produce great PAR output, with a solid spectrum to match.
How do we know?
We have thousands of successful customers. Go to Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, or one of the many forums with people doing live journals, and see for yourselves. We love our customers, and are dedicated to doing everything we can to make them successful.
Tasty LED may have a great light. It has one really good review on Autoflower.net where they were doing a grow journal. We have about 6 active grow journals going on that same site. You can also look at the 4081 posts for #platinumled and compare it to the 22 for #tastyled, on instagram.
I do have to apologize that some of our 'fanboys' do get quite evangelical on other forums about how much the love our lights. Anyone notice how as soon as we were kicked off of 420Mag you couldn't go on that forum without tripping over Mars Hydro? I'm just saying...
I do have to admit Sarah from Mars does one hell of a job. I have no idea how she covers so many forum threads all at once.
The truth is, no matter how many technical specifications I supply you will never be satisfied. We are under no obligation to open up our hood and show you the part or model numbers of each and every one of our components. Just like Gavita would never provide you with their ballast PCB layout.
You want to see our PPFD output for each of our panels, go to our website and check out our videos. If you don't believe us talk to our customers. You can also stop by our booth at the Marijuana Biz Conference in Las Vegas and bring your own quantum (PAR) meter and verify for yourself. We'll have a very large booth...you can't miss it!
Every LED Grow light vendor claims to have the MOST POWERFUL, with the BEST SPECTRUM. @Johnny Lawrence we use 12 bands of top bin diodes with LED drivers set a static 650mA of output. We did add dried unicorn tears and rainbow farts for that extra juice, so great guess Johnny...sweep the leg!
What matters is customer success and results.
Not exactly sure why 'concerned growers' like some of the people in this thread, most of which have never used our LEDs, have made their moral obligation to educate others on how much they don't like our lights. I don't really understand what we have done to take up so much of your mental real estate.
I suspect some of you may work for a competitor. We understand that the grow light industry is super saturated with 100's of LED, HID, Induction, and Plasma vendors alI fighting to get a piece of the action. I get it...it's a tough market. Trying to sabotage your competition on social media will probably not the best use of your time. There are better ways to get customers.
@AtticGrower002 you can see a video where we test our lights next to quite a few other players on the market on our website. There are also quite a few comparison videos by other growers on youtube as well.
I know a lot of you are fans of COB technology used for growing on the market. We haven't added COBs to our panels as of yet for a few specific reasons. If your interested in knowing why, check out our blog. If you still believe COB's are for you, I encourage your to check out Johnson Grow Lights. @Stephenj37826 ......What's up Steve...I met you in Knoxville awhile back. I worked with Greg at Lumetric Lighting and tested your light in our integrated sphere. I hope biz is going well!
For any real growers checking out this thread, we truely wish the best of luck and the dankest buds no matter what light you choose. If I had a joint i'd pass it to ya...
Just to show there's no hard feelings...here is a nice track for your listening enjoyment!
