Its supposed to be a 1000w hps replacement. Expensive, but comes with a 5yr warranty and seems to be a decent unit.
Is it actually better or are you saying this because of the price? Will i be able to get the same rebates and money back from the electricity companies with that unit? This would be for commercial use, 20 units atleast.Here's a much better alternative.

Ill look into those, if im not mistaken these Megas use all high end componentshttps://growerslights.com/products/horticulture-lighting-group-600h-quantum-board-led-kit
This would be much better an nowhere near 1600 bucks. Hlg and Samsung make one hell of a light.
It doesn’t say what they use. They only mention it’s all made in the US.Ill look into those, if im not mistaken these Megas use all high end components
Lol. Im just asking for opinions because im seeing really good results. Alot of people in the LED community talk down alot of lights because they could build the same light for less, not necessarily because the light doesnt do its job. To me, warranty is big. Also being able to pass inspection/be up to code. Im still learning alot. Also seeing that theres rebates and reimbursements from electical companies if you use the right product, has my interest.Marketing with the "Mega" moniker implies that perhaps it's not as mega as it really ought to be.
Where do you live that they’ll give you discounts for grow lights lol. I like knowing exactly what they built the light with. With timber, hlg and a few others they give you that information.Lol.

This isnt something ive sat down and figured out. Just something ive come across during my research on lights. HLG fixtures seem to be nice, i wont rule them out.Where do you live that they’ll give you discounts for grow lights lol. I like knowing exactly what they built the light with.

Don’t rule out cmh either. Depending on your space cmh lighting is stellar imo.This isnt something ive sat down and figured out. Just something ive come across during my research on lights. HLG fixtures seem to be nice, i wont rule them out.
He needs the lights for a commercial setup. They need to be UL certified.Warranty is pointless when you gotta RMA your fixture and be without it for 3 weeks. DIY is so much better. If you're worried about it lasting, do a strip buildbuold. They are rugged and last forever. But most importantly is if one somehow goes out, it's just a single strip and can be replaced in 5 minutes.

So the HLGs are good to go for commercial setups then? Has anyone ran them for a long period of time? Curious to see what kind of life expectancy people are actually getting vs advertised.
Dude these newer white cobs and diodes last for 100,000+ hrs.So the HLGs are good to go for commercial setups then? Has anyone ran them for a long period of time? Curious to see what kind of life expectancy people are actually getting vs advertised.
