is the 2020 spider farmer 1000w with samsung diodes worth buying ?

im thinking of adding the new 2020 spider farm 1000 watt any thoughts ? , added with my NOAH - S 1000w ( NOAH - S only draws 200w , its a 2020 version of a amazon generic LED out of china , you see littered every where on amazon. ) So both of those lights running for 4 Auto plants , and im thinking of making a divider in my grow room so the room is little smaller for reflection purposes 4x4x8 to 3x3x8 any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Just started all this last week
 
thanks man im checking it out, are the ones one alibaba clones of the spider farmer ? the price is so cheap and and light intensity reads diff on amazon compared to alibaba , just makes me think ?
 
Im now thinking the spider 2000 , thanks man , i hope shes worth it , i also have a 1000 watt true 200 watt led I got for 100 bucks, with all those lights , surely i can harvest some auto flower and get some decent buds .

thanks man, any chance you have the model number ? and why this one in particular?
Just email/contact them and tell em you WA t the model with out 5000k. Simple as that. I recommend this one because you don't need extra blue when flowering. It's all about red and the blue that IS needed is still there in PLENTIFUL amount with all 3000k. Going up to even 3500k on almost every spectral graph I've seen for any light, regardless of manufacturer, bumps the blue peak all the way to 100%.

Thanks, im still looking on Alibaba , so may versions of that light , im still waiting to find out the model number , if your able to see it ?
 
i cannot find any version of the spider 2000 that does not have 5000k, if your able to see it , cut and paste the model number or a direct link please!

I’ve been extremely hesitant to buy any lights on alibaba. The prices are so low it makes me think Knock off, and on top of that, potential safety issues. Has anyone actually purchased anything from that site? I was thinking the prices are so low because China’s trying to rejuvenate their economy because of this corona thing, I mean everybody’s economy is in the crapper right now. I’m just really skeptical.

Kingbrite and Meiju seem to be the most popular sellers and I've read quite a few good reviews about both of them.

I just ordered a sf1000 from archibald on alibaba a few days ago so we'll see how long it takes to get here.
 
im doing so much research an what im finding is that all 98 percent of them are made in china and packaged and branded for international business ie. spider farmer and mars , for example the spider farmer 2000 w led is $ 320 canadian on the spiderfarmer website not including tax and shipping , if you buy from amazon your buying the exact same light, however you can buy that exact same light on alibaba for half the price ....but shipping is more expensive so it basicly balances itself out give or save 50-75$, they all come from the same factory in china , they make every model of light you see online, the mars, spider are rebranded and packaged for companys like spider farmer and many other names of many differnt blurples. Black Dog led seem to be the best , but are hella expensive and not made in china , they seem to draw true watts , so the black dog 1000w is actually drawing like 750w, against say the spider 2000 it only uses 250 w. any way I think im going with alibaba for the spider 2000 with the samsung diodes its the "2020" version , its only $175 "migro youtube" gave the same one only the 1000w spider a very good review so i can only imagine the 2000 with my 1000w blurple should produce so decent results on 4 plants mabey 3 , ill keep updating

Sf 2000 is the one I was thinking of going with. You’re right about the pricing though, yea the light is cheap, but you pay for the cheap price in shipping. Pretty much brings the price back up to what either amazon or eBay is offering. So a $50-75 difference isn’t enough to make me wait for it to come from China. It comes way sooner from amazon or eBay.
