I just got some high bay lights with SMD3030's for a grow light from a different manufacturer on there. I customized my spectrum with 3000K, 2700K, and 4000K -- and also had them bump each module up from 50w to 70w.

My two cents, get one that uses good white diodes (aka not that blurple shit), and uses a good driver. The company I used also has an option with Cree XTE's as well. And they're cheap. Not blown up prices for a "grow light" like many of the companies on there.

The ones I just got use the Philips Luxeon 3030's with meanwell drivers. 5 year warranty and IP67. I have zero complaints, first grow with them. Paired with Vero 29's.

The 5050 diode modules are better output from the samples I've tested. Can't find any of the 3535l he plus yet

Can you name the firm?? I was just looking at my option.. For 50x50 cm space.
I have 3 autocobs inside..each for one plant..
 
Rio Tinto. If you want them to bump power up to 70w per module just ask. Can also customized the boards for no extra charge. They shipped it 2nd day air to me.
 
Ivtook a look, found only chips
. But I will take better look when I come home..

I'm just saying, I've extensively talked to them and figured these things out, they might not directly put cree xte on the listing if you search it.

I've talked to probably close to 50 light manufacturers at this point. Ordered from 2.
 
I found a place that says they have them in 3000k 80cri I am ordering samples i have a par meter to test output but i wont know how to tell if its the correct diode.

It'll be the round ones if anything. The Square ones aren't even on the market. I've checked with a few light manufacturers and all have said they're not out yet.

That's weird I looked up the square Les part number on octopart and a place showed up. Even if it's the round it will be good to test. output should still be pretty good maybe similar to the lower bin Samsung
