That's cool, I'm not trying to poo on anyone's fiesta. But with that many monos , of that type & grade , you take a cob with respectable stats like the cxb3070 ~51-52% efficient and the monos running in the low to mid 40s%
And all the sudden this LED doesn't look that much more attractive than a CMH.

I'm here to learn so thanks for your input. And as I keep saying despite my 3590 COB lights, something about the CMH lights keeps calling to me lol........

There is a reason why I started this thread. Mono's suck in efficiency

Do they really though? So does my HPS but I'm not about to toss it w/ the results I get. Until I'm confident I can replace it w/ led or another source. Dry weights coming in & I just might. It seems quality bin monos aren't a whole lot different when run at half power like cobs. Then w/ the lenses they have higher par #'s, wouldn't the increased intensity make up for the 3% in efficiency & then some. I mean that's what I see when comparing a mono panel to a cob. The monos always have a higher PPF at the same wattage. So high in fact that one would have to crank up the cob to match the intensity hence making the cob equal or less, No? Now you can enhance your cob w/ the colors you choose & still be about equal in efficiency, have more intensity or PPF & possibly more overall growth. That would be for you to decide after doing such a test for yourself.
I've found mixing colors w/ whites does make a huge differance although I have not done these tests using cobs against monos n cobs yet. I'm hoping to if a comp. will offer me lights at my cost for equal wattage from Amare. Then we could all see on my thread.
I found big benefits doing these color to white ratio tests w/ my T-5.

Doesn't that ecosunlite use Cree xpe diodes for all the monos?

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that 2013 tech?
Would at least XP-G2 or the new XP-G3 be a pretty big step up?

Also, a guy msgd me on Instagram asking about that light. His shipping quote for 2 pcs was $200 DHL to the USA.

XPE and XTE Led chips , the problem is that we carry quality led chips for our LED grow light .
Which model you quote for 2pcs , as the different lights with different weight , the bigger one with higher shipping cost .

To many reds not enough white. Don't think it will do well.

we customize the led rato , we can make more red model and more white model , when you check the COBS with cree CXB 3070 , then you think that will be enough white already . Our Full CREE ones is what we talked about you get what you paid .

Sorry , just to show the growing video to the people here . They are curious about :
Why not post the price on our website ?

We make the led grow lights with different brand led chips , price is different .
And why we need the city location for those people who quote , because if there are local sales , then we will pass to them .

Reminds me of my buddies Gro-Blu w/ cobs. Nice results but I'd like to see them from a consumer. I bet poeple will have fun selecting their spectrum ratios.
How did it grow so much outside of its footprint though? Questions I'll ask on that thread though.

So, this is a mono panel w/ cobs as the addition as a supplement? I see you mentioned that we can customize our lights.
Can we choose to use top-bin diodes & cobs? Wheather it's Bridgluxe or Cree? If so, I could see you guys selling plenty of these.

from what I can see your not supplementing cobs with monos.

You are supplementing monos with a sprinkle of cobs. Not a bad idea, except that with the right specification 3 watt monos have been surpassed by high quality cobs for efficiency.

is that not true ? I'd love to see some PPF / watt numbers to see how well you have really done.
