only hear terrible things about them to any led forum and say there name lol...never used but heard its like throwing your money down drainAny opinions on Mars 144 x5 reflector panel? Found one locally for very cheap
A lil bit pricey, but ill be betting on advanced led. Im running all three of there models the ds, xte and xml. Get the xml350 if u can, u can litteraly see the plants growing everydayThanks guys!
Can you guys suggest something time tested and proven for a 4x2 space?
Ideally I'd like to raise 3-4 and perfect a scrog under LEDs
Ultra amazing 13.6% efficiency. And I'm being called pessimistic about cheap LEDs' output...New Chinese Lamp using NASA heat pipes
Proprietary Grow Spectrum

A light based on 4x CXB3590, like I haveThanks guys!

312 High powered LED lights, specs are pretty iffee.Some state of the art blurple here folks

My mistake - I didn't realize those are not mono blues in the fixture. I'll retract that blurple comment.Lighting science is one of the most legit companies in the industry. One of then only ones to put up actual results in a few real Colorado dispensary. And have full case studies to back it.
And they are white/red...not burble.
halarious to hear the "experts" around here sometimes.
It's funny with all the cob tech coming out, everyone just hates on the monos when they're kind of where led tech started. Also has been proven to work (with quality diodes). Just like Chinese generic cobs vs Cree or bridgelux.Lighting science is one of the most legit companies in the industry.

vividgrow v2 is 100% mono, you didn't make a mistake(451/660nm)................also claim it's an "ideal" spec for flowering cannabisMy mistake - I didn't realize those are not mono blues in the fixture. I'll retract that blurple comment.
I am fully aware of LSG's reputation in the SSL industry. I was commenting on the rather hyperbolic language in the press release, which frankly, I am getting sick of.
Hey guys I've been looking into LEDs for awhile now and I've read some really nice grows using diy cobs. As great as that sounds I don't feel I have enough knowledge to begin building my own. With that said I have been looking into to 2 panels. I was hoping you guys could help me narrow my down my decision. The first one is California Lightworks Solarstorm 220 full cycle.

The second is one I've recently come across and haven't seen too much in the forums about them, but they seem like the real deal. The one advantage I've found over anything else on the market is they claim that you can place the light
3"- 6" from the canopy. The particular model I'm looking at is the M6

Any input would be appreciated as I am pretty new to the LED world.
Really...451 and 660?? you sure?...vividgrow v2 is 100% mono, you didn't make a mistake(451/660nm)................also claim it's an "ideal" spec for flowering cannabis
Am I sure Now? No...... lol, if you follow Dr flux link above its a mono panel, maybe shit has changed sinceReally...451 and 660?? you sure?...

VividGro’s performance-engineered, broad color spectrum can significantly stimulate plant growth while drastically reducing energy consumption by utilizing specific lighting wavelengths of 350 and 660 nanometers.
Looks like 350 is either a typo, or a reference to "full spectru white"...as in from 350-700nm.
It's a shit ton of 660 and some cool white
I've actually seen, touched, and measured these units. And their original.
they used whites.
Little fun fact...just like nich left illumitex to create BML...Neil left lighting science to create "Bios Lighting"
EDIT:
From their spect sheet...
• Broad spectrum – tailored to maximize photosynthetic absorption efficiency. Wavelengths of 450 and 660 nanometers
Pretty vague...cause ya, white leds do hit 450nm dead on pretty much.
I went to both his link...all white and red there and why I said it. It's where I got the SPD graph and the quotes from above.Am I sure Now? No...... lol, if you follow Dr flux link above its a mono panel, maybe shit has changed since
Even on lsg's web site it still states the v2 as 450/660.....can link atm, phone issues, nothing changes friend.....ha
Well what the hell is this then?I went to both his link...all white and red there and why I said it. It's where I got the SPD graph and the quotes from above.
They are white with a shit ton of red....PINK. That pink tint doesn't remind yo of apache and a51? It's pink...not burble. Cause they are white and red...not blue and red.
All they do is reference 450 spike...never say they use 450 or blue. Yet they use terms like "broad"...broadband..i.e. white.
They hve been around for years using white with 660. Then this new fixture came out last year. Bigger wattage unit, slightly higher bins...and more red than the orginal. That is their new over their old.
They were using osram last I saw them.
