arrow I used the link on their site they come connected in 3 but ordered 8 and got 2 bars of 3 an I bar of 2Do you remember who you ordered from where they showed up as singles?
Pretty sure @robincnn said they were working with ledil to get fresh lenses that are easier to work with. Maybe either he or stephen could shed some light (heheheh) on that.These optics also seem like a huge pain to install I'm just going to run mine without for a while maybe someone will come out with better optics
Ya a clip on version that fit better would be sweet. Or a custom silicone piece that goes over the QB an is mounted using the existing holesPretty sure @robincnn said they were working with ledil to get fresh lenses that are easier to work with.

I know the suncloak systems use silicone. Perhaps a similar solution could be concocted for these boards.Ya a clip on version that fit better would be sweet. Or a custom silicone piece that goes over the QB an is mounted using the existing holes
This looks coolI know the suncloak systems use silicone. Perhaps a similar solution could be concocted for these boards.
In his layout if you mount the fixtures overhead in a vert room you now don't have to worry about the lights being in your way and also you can run more rows of plants in a smaller space. Really just no lights in the isles makes it incredibly easy to work on your plants. To me the biggest problem with vert growing has always been the lights hanging right in your way.
The idea here is to have plants on both sides of the isle which would be 3-4 ft wide. With this design we are hoping to eliminate the need to move the lights this saving labor and also minimizing cost as a movable rack system would add to system complexity and cost I would imagine. I'm no expert though lol.why not put the light on a track so it can be slid out of the way? would make it adjustable for distance from the plants also
And another thing; where would we be moving these lights TO?The idea here is to have plants on both sides of the isle which would be 3-4 ft wide.

I was thinking the same thing.And another thing; where would we be moving these lights TO?

Hee hee I have a bad habit of doing that to people!After seeing your light map, I understand. Amazing! Makes me re-think how I'll build my first vertical.
As usual, ignoring my points.As usual, thinking backwards.
This is what a normal person calls a "grow light".I'm proud to present what we believe is the first quantum board based overhead light fixture for vertical gardening;
Assuming the pictures in the original post are of the setup, how is it a "head to head" test when the plants are sharing the light from both the COBs and boards?I'll be rearranging the rack soon and using three of the same modules per 4x6' panel for a total of 675W, that's the same draw as the two quantum board fixtures. That will be the true head to head test!
First, not my company, no dog in this fight.As usual, ignoring my points.

Would that also make it "the first quantum based sidelighting light fixture for horizontal gardening"?
Youre marketing has the subtlety of beating the bloody corpse of a long dead horse.
Try reading the thread.Assuming the pictures in the original post are of the setup, how is it a "head to head" test when the plants are sharing the light from both the COBs and boards?
Also, wouldnt the overheads be less efficient because they are further away from the majority of the plant as compared to the side lighting cobs?
Can you actually answer these questions without claiming Im somehow treating you and your grow unfairly or being a "prick"?
