Vipar LED

[SnotNazi]

When did I recommend this light??? I sincerely hope you have not forsaken this world by procreating you stupendous intelligence, to flounder among those of us with a brain.

Firstly, read my last point. This is why I posted on this forum in the first place, to get this point across. If you're talking about my lights specifically then you need to have your facts straight. My light is 54W and cost $22 for two of them. This is why I am a strong advocate for the cheap lights. Is there quality issues? Fuck ya there is but I didn't get those issues. All I see is the visible proof that my plants are thriving more so then my previous grow. This means they are working better than the lights I used previously, just in case you didn't catch that. This also means that they WORK because my plant is actually growing under the light that is being provided.
As far as cost per month, you're talking $49/mnth or $583/yr for these babies. Yours cost you $450 and run at a cost of $65/mnth and $778/yr @300W pull. So you spent $1228 this year were I spent only $605.....Each additional year, if prices theoretically stayed the same, will cost you $173 more then me and further to my point, even if we stretched it to a ten year spread and I had to buy two new lights every year for the next ten years at the same price of $22 for two. And we assume you only need to by one replacement at $450. Even then you would spend $8680 to my $6050.

So I ask again, what are you trying to disprove???

what's the bin on that?

 

[Positivity]

Don't know and don't care...lol

I don't think these types have bins actually. Just random factory surplus..

I wouldn't want to waist my money on those, DIY ftw. Yes I own a vipar but I wouldn't buy another rather save up my money for parts for another DIY cob set up by that's just me I'm loving the small one I've made its producing some serious buds right now.

Read the next sentence you didn't highlight, Einstein. @Positivity That's the point

Do they work well or do they just work? Got any evidence that they work at all? (pics)

You lied buddy...you recommended it. Don't forget that so conveniently...if you do..i'll remind you
Just like you lied about the price..
And the wattage draw..

I'm about done with you. Have a nice day.

Not that I have to prove anything to you but yeah. If you weren't such a lazy ass as to not being able to navigate your mouse to one of my other posts - here you go.

You still didn't show that these screw in LEDs can grow anything. There's an entire subforum dedicated to CFL grows.j Come on, man.

 

[SnotNazi]

Oh wait, shit....there aren't any plants in those pics??? Oh no right, you're an idiot.

 

[SnotNazi]

wow. I'm out boys. PEACE.

 

[mc130p]

wow. I'm out boys. PEACE.

See ya!

 

[nvhak49]

Where are some bud shots from the screw in leds?

 

[gk skunky]

Just for shits and giggles want to see my monthly electric bill? And I'm in Texas. Man these quality LEDs break the bank all around I tell ya. Wait a minute @SnotNazi let me find my bill in a minute. was $95 for a 3bd house.... If you can't tell I like efficiency.

Just for the record I am impressed with micro grows, I feel bad ripping him after seeing he grows.

Might seem like i think everyone needs to use only the best, its not that at all. When i was growing with a 90w ufo I wasn't about to start mouthing off either..lol. In fact i was sick that my eyes hurt and the weed was coming out like hay...

 

[OneHitDone]

@SnotNazi here is last month's bill with last year's trending. Other than the crazy winter you can see that's pretty consistent. Also the current plants. Still trying to recover and refill the room from my vacation absence. That bud is a 5th week chunky diesel. Still has a good 5 weeks left. There are 14 plants in there now, mix of 10 different strains.

What is your kwh rate down there in Texas? Any Tier'd BS like here in cali?

What is your kwh rate down there in Texas? Any Tier'd BS like here in cali?

Really depends on the area and applicable providers along with other variables like credit. There are some companies that have 3-5 tiers. Costs are anywhere from 8.4 cents per kWh to 16 cents. I thought I was paying 12 cents but according to them when I just checked now their site is vague and says ~10. using my bill I determine 11.4 cents is my actual. 840kwh(X)=$95 so $95/840kwh=X. There of course are standard rates, variable rates, the whole prepaid and pay as you go. I'm in an area I can only use a particular co-op. That's supposed to be none profit. Yeah.... sure. LOL if not there are others that do service the surrounding area that are flat 8.6 cents per kWh. If the co-op and home builders along with city didn't make it that way.

That you have never had a quality fixture! Because if you had you would also say! Vipar is shit and a waste of $
