Indeed and it would! That is a tasty looking little piece of kit alright. How easy/difficult is assembly? Bear in mind my DIY skills are limited to changing a plug

At least I can dream....

Honestly im the exact same when it comes to something like that but its pretty easy once you go through it step by step. I plan to get some cobs at some stage. Great investment.

Cant wait to plug her into the sms fan controller throw the 750w cob on n do a temps run with one 200w cobx4 in the 1.76 and my cob9 in the 3x3 n lets see temps with everything in motion

Trust me man youll be surprised the temp difference with it man

Yeah, something like that would have me set for "life", growing at my scale anyway.

Kit10 I grew with two mars1200
Amazing smoke the stickiest I've grow and flavours like unwonted believe but the amount of heat they make and loud fans and way less yeild than a 600 hps not worth it and a east of a grand I have them in the attic for a future project

Citizen cobs I got 2x 3500k and 1 3000k. Kits form king brite
They buds aren't as big as the hps side on my then but dense as fuck and more stinky and sticky
I'll do a dry weight compare but so far my impression
Half the stretch
Strong stermage
Will probably weight more
Better structure for trimming
Better suit to my script style.

Temps are lower than two hps (only one now)
Less nutes use from evaporation
Fans needed to move air around like hps but I don't think the heatsinks get about 35degrees just warm to the touch. No fans blowing across them hot but u can still hold your hand on them easily
They make sense for home grower looking to use the same power and get more from less heat

DIY frame
Massive pain in the balls took me two full afternoons next time I'll just. But one off rapidled

Worth it ?? So far yes but the proof will be if I get more than two hps, easier trimming and smoke quality

If they do as people say I'll but a qb and cob light for the other side and smash the plants back door in or just get another 3x 200watt kits yet to decide

The hard part is the frame wiring is a piece of piss growmau5 DIY view all the way !!!

U actually 200wtt off a dimmable driver if u don't connect the dimmer true driver is 185watts

I'd say let a few honest people test them and tell u honest results before dropping hard cash if don't have the cash to waste. I like the idea of led but I got my fingers and wallet burned by mars lights also I have a load of burnt and not lighting up diodes because their thermal management and build quality is bollox

Don't go mars please

What's yer advice regarding removing leaves under the canopy for air circulation ?

The lassies are very low after being lst'd so there is alot of tucked away fan leaves that look all wong as the Chinese would say

I'd love to buy a cob someday. Some high tech shit right there.

Ive the same cobs as yourself (clu04only 16 in a 4x4 so will be fun to see how your buds progress mins like 750w n supposed to have insane par,ppf,ppfd so I probably wont lollypop some. Jist to see how dense the canopy can be penetrated
