Hey renfro

how does this light compare to the nanolux?

this sunsystem dimmable 945w is 339.00 and comes with a bulb

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07BHKF7HW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A2ZJA9UUKY06RO&psc=1

the vivosun 315 is 199+110 for the phillips bulb

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07J5WQQGJ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2PQGFJXAT8J9K&psc=1



almost seems to good to be true, less than .30/w for de cmh lighting seems very cheap dosent it?
I have no experience with either manufacturer so I don't have much to say. I'm still pretty new to the CMH lighting.

Yonk... I was already looking at buying those last 2 in stock... You made me bite the bullet and buy them, because I need them for my next run to test out. Didnt want to order them until Monday so they would arrive Thursday instead of Wednesday. I can let you know if you want. They will be on my next run inside my tent. 4x8 with two 945w cmh. I've been talking to Sunstream about the bulbs. It sounded like 4k bulbs, but they clarified through email that it was 3k bulbs.

They are back showing in stock again now when i try to order, honestly at that price, i may try one out.

So, the 1kW Nanolux DE CMH doesn't like running with the ballast mounted remotely. Nothing, nada. :(

Changing the bulbs out in room A to the 10k. Gonna pack up the 1kW CMH and try to send them back.
You need to replace the ignitor with a long range ignitor or try increasing the wire gauge in your extension, increasing the wire gauge solves it most of the time.

They have the nanolux 1000 de for 169.99 cad aswell

Seems to good to be true right?

I'm scouring the net trying to find anything on this company. They were top search when I typed in sunsystem 945
Yeah that seems like a wholesale price.

I know right?

I'm such a skeptic when I see prices way outside the norm, im the guy that waits and waits to find info on the site and misses the deal lol

Can't really find much about the company which is concerning but never found anything negative either, so there's that

lol i know

i laughed when i first seen it. but wasnt laughing when i seen the prices on their cmh and realized i was gonna have to look into the site a bit more.

was hoping they would accept paypal, but they only accept visa/mastercard.


Am considering ordering 1 just to see if its real lol. 144.00 might be worth the risk

Ya i agree, gonna refrain until i find some credible info on them

Amazon is showing them back in stock again, so ill prob just order from them.

Wondering, 8x6 space, would i be better off with a single 945w or 3x the 315s? coverage i can see the 315s doing better, but i assume they wont compete with the 945 for penetration.
