Viceman666, I wish I had a better and more definitive answer lol. What’s your setup like?i just looked at the optic 8 and looks like they are using cob cxb3590 run at 50watt (max 137).. I think either option will work great.. your ppfd chart are a bit off because the quantum is showing to be running at 449w while hlg550 will run at 510w (mind you you can dim too). Both light will do about the same. Hlg will provide maybe a slightly more even reading than the optic 8 but that would be minimal.. both are great choice it looks like
I’ve taken a step back and redoing my research;
Kind Led; K5 XL 750 or K5 XL1000
Advanced Platinum Led; P900, P1200 or P9XLM2
Optic Led; Optic 6 or Optic 8+
HLG; 550 or 600
