The issue I have with these Giant "spot" light fixtures, is that such a design is not really utilising the true advantage LED tech has to offer, e.g splitting that 2400watts down into 10 smaller spots spaced out would equal a better distribution of the light over a like for like footprint and you would achieve a more uniform growth pattern over the entire canopy.It would be like a photon torpedo in a tent. A phaser on stun more appropriate. But it is dimmable. Lighting a bowl with propane torch maybe. Smaller coming, right?
Super incandescent on the horizon. Big red present there. CRI is what it is is. Yep, I did say that.
Sometimes more equals less, think light saturation, photo-inhibition on centre even if such a fixture was hung at say 3 feet away, this now limits where such a lamp can be used.
With regards to dimming it seems kind of pointless to buy a fixture that you could only ever run at say 50% of it's max potential, you might as well get a smaller, cheaper fixture.
The only place I can see such a lamp finding a suitable home, is in a glasshouse setting.
