With all due respect grandmasterlevel, the image you posted of the Intertek certification label was clearly taken off a computer screen. I did some research to understand the process and discovered that submitting the label art is part of the approval process. The file number 5012859 is 134 files previous to my Equinox label which is 5012993. Why can HLG not post a picture of the label on their light? Is it because they didn’t pass certification or they’re still in process?

We have the ATM which is Authorization to Mark. We haven't posted a picture because it's a holiday week basically. We passed IFA on Monday the 19th.

The driver is going into protect mode and shutting down,this has happened to half the the hlg550s between a few of my friends and at a local grow carrying the lights,Ive sent emails to growerslights,he keeps telling me that he not heard back yet.my light has been off for over 10 days now.
Two dead hlg 550s are going to be diagnosed by an electrical engineer later today.ill get back to you I promise.
Contact us directly. We honor our warranty 100%
We do have a batch of V1 550s that have a higher failure rate. All of them are due to driver failure. Almost 100% of the failed units made a buzzing noise inside the driver. Meanwell is taking care of us on this.

Thanks dude,I am not here to fight,just going to do a test grow, with a light I got from my local hydroponic store,I have no affiliation with these lights and will give an honest opinion of my results.
The hlg 550s that I have are not ul listed here in Canada as of yet ,I guess that’s why the shop here in town doesn’t carry them anymore..listen I love these qbs,I have shown pics of them all over the RIU and Icmag they give good results but this light is only 1-1/2 yrs old, same thing happened to my buddy,he had two, one died within 8 months. Maybe it’s a Canadian thing..lol
You bought them from a store of ours. She was unlucky enough to have bought her stock from that bad batch. We will take care of you. Send an email to [email protected] with the subject hlg 550 warranty.

I went to the indoor gardener to buy some auto pots. He (clerk, maybe owner) had the hlg 550 at the time. He mentioned this, in development by someone in Guelph / Waterloo area. I was hoping to see something that beats hlg 550, not less diodes and capable of less photons.

Not impressed with them calling it a quantum board in the online description either, unless they give hlg a cut.
