Looks like tomatoes ?Dude, Airwalker16... Either those plants are doing horribly or they ain't weed. They look placed next to large windows so I'm assuming they aren't pot plants.

I was gonna say.. with a power hungry chiller running too?? wtf?!?
Anyways, the PLC CX300 lists for $750. The Tasty T2-2100 is 360 and the T3-2100 is $530. Both running the latest and greatest CXB3590's vs. the slightly older-tech (6) 3070's the CX300 features is a pretty fair comparison, no?

Wow. I didn't realize it was $170 more for one more cob, lens, and fan.

I almost bought the CX300 (might still do whenever it's back in stock) as some say the 3070's spectrum is slightly more ideal for flowering.. however, Rahz's seeming quest for efficiency is what sold me in the end. Plus I really need the LED to run side by side with HID. I'm too afraid penetration of the canopy will be lacking relying solely on LED for flowering.

Along with $20 more in aluminum, more holes to drill and tap, etc. The profit on the T3 is about $160. The only way I can justify selling the smaller lamps is by selling the larger lamps. I clear $45 off a T1-2100. The larger the lamp, the less per PAR watt though. T2-2100 is about 4.80 per par watt, T3-2100 is about 4.70 per par watt. It might be the cheapest par watt of any Cree/Bridgelux cob lamp on the market currently, and running at 50% output efficiency. It's not a bad deal.

And I'm not saying that is a bad price at all. It just would make more sense to buy 2 t2s

Hey Rahz, if i wanted to swap the lenses on my unit for conical reflectors like the ones discussed earlier, how would i go about that and how much would it set me back? Can i get them through Tasty or is there a supplier i could look at?

The sink would need to be drilled and tapped for both cob holder and reflector holder. Cobs would need to be desoldered and removed from the sink before that which could damage them. DC wiring would need to be replaced.
If you pay shipping I would have no problem trading for a lamp with reflectors, but it's only a couple of percent difference. In practice I don't think you would see much difference in the final product.

Thanks for the advice. Its definitely not sub-par by any means, in its current configuration. It might work out better having a wider angle lens, for side lighting sake, especially because of how reflective the walld of my cab are. I dont think that my plants mind much.

can you use 120v to daisy chain cob units but the final plug to the wall can be 240v?

So you mean plug to wall 240, then 120 v rated fixtures chained together?

yes specifically this lamp: http://www.tastyled.com/Tasty-T1-2100-LED-Grow-Light-p/t1-2100r.htm
Wanting to daisy chain them the a/c output seems to be 120 only. Wondering if i can run 120v cords for daisy chaining and the final cord to the wall be 240v. All my wall outlets are 240v.

Would one t2 2100 be enough for a 3x3 feet space ?

It would be enough if thats all you're wanting to accomplish is mediocre yield. You know that 2 is most optimal.

It will work but it's not proper and not something I can say "Yea go for it" about. Proper would be using 240v rated cords. I supply 240v daisy cords with multiple lamps. A repeat customer could also ask for one.
