Club 315w lec

[ttystikk]

I was going to buy more Phillips 4200k bulbs and stumbled upon Ushio's ceramic bulbs. Wondering what you guys think of the spectrum on their 4200k. Theyre only a few dollars more than the phillips and seem to be worth it.

That looks pretty good to me.

I seen a video on youtube were they compare all of the lec bulbs that are currently available. The Philips bulb out performed everything they tested including the ushio

Not sure about growershouse testing, their numbers have always looked odd to me in one way or another.
As you can see by the difference in the UV range it would appear the solis would do better than the ushio . Pay no attention to the solis DE finisher at the top of the photo. Err actually thats the daylight 4k DE up top, I'm gonna side by side it with an allstart 860 this fall/winter.

Actually solis may not be truthfully in their advertising , it's strange but they also print on the box "for best results use with solistek digital ballast" when solis doesn't even make a 315 cmh ballast.

Oh then, yes they do now. Fuck another thing to buy.
Pre-order now, due out first week of sept.

I do believe I'm gonna look at one or two of these. Maybe one to start out with but solis is some solid shit in my book,

The reflector looks nice. No hammered aluminum there.

Hi, I have a sun system 315w LEC and some reason it is not working. When we took it down it was working but now where I have it, it will not turn on. I can see a light on the on/off switch and it is going in and out. Anyone have any IDEAS? Thanks.

Check ur power plug.

I looked at the plug and it seems fine.

Check ur power plug.

Is it bad to try and open it up?

They take about 15 minutes to reset. Leave it off for that long then try to refire it.

Will do thank you

Oaky so I had it unplugged for 30 minutes, plugged it back in and it is still the same.

 

[Growdict]

Dunno. Maybe the bulb. You got a spare to try?

 

[bwailer]

I do not. I was wording about the bulb too. It was fine when we took it down. When I flip it on should I hear anything? I do not hear anything? Could that be caused by the bulb going out?

 

[Growdict]

I suppose if you had a meter you could see if power was going to the socket.

The socket has power. I know it was tested.

 

[Growdict]

Then it is almost certainly the bulb
