Lol, sold it all on CL to stoner kids near me! I really am so happy I took the plunge. It took a while to finish, but each time I added a cob fixture and removed an Hps, my buds got better and better.

Do you think a $100 dollar light that kicks out 800w are going to come close to what he already has?

And considering it onl has 4 cobs, it probably only draws 200w at the wall, maybe even less if they cheaped out on the driver.

When I did my research, I landed on brands like Timber, Northern Growlights, and others that were far superior. I also started with a guy who made his own and gave me a good deal. I'm pretty sure those are Chinese...

Since I didn't have the cash to buy all my lights at the same time, I slowly replaced my 3 HPS lights with 900 watts of assorted Veros- 3000-4000K mix.

210w apparently. If I were local I might pay the $100 just for the case and replace the guts.

The first review is the only one worth reading.
lol classic old school lying bastards
