I bought those, worked like a charm, even with sticky back so you could stick it to the back of the TV and create a mood. Change colors too. Enough for a 60 inch TV at Walmart for like $9.00. Kind of cool, makes the room feel like a movie theater at night.

What's your point? Christmas lights work like a charm, too, but not for growing cannabis.

I think you need to do a little research on battery capacity and amp hours. You are doing nothing more than wasting your time on this idea.
I have been researching for many months ik what im doing i have been growing for 2 years led strip with batteries dont often go over 30 w per meter the thing is no chargable battery has the capicity i am looking for.. led battery strips work for weed grow i need about 15-20 meters battery led strips and aa batteries i can buy in bulk and ik this is by fare the best way to grow and sounds ludacris but this is the only solution i can think of and i have seen online peoble doing the same thing as me and works ok

They work great in a small grow space where they are close to the plants, and surround all sides of the plant, like in a space bucket grow. But you are talking about 2M x 2M, which BTW is 42.25 square feet (not 8 ), and that is a completely different ball game. For that type of square footage, and that type of LED, you would need more than 2,500W of LED. Sounds like you need to do a lot more research.

Think about it in terms of grams per watt... How many grams you want?
Now figure out how many batteries it will take for a single 4 or 5 month grow.
Done some calculations lets say i have 10 led strips 3 aa batteries in each each 2meters and its on 12 hours a day for 5 weeks thats 150 aa batteries for 8 plants thats not bad

LOL, Ok, you are still talking about AA batteries? You are most definitely a troll. Good luck with your grow and be sure to post pictures of this because I sure would love to see it.

Something is terribly wrong with your calculations. Good luck though. Look forward to seeing this succeed :peace:

Could you elaborate more on the underground aspect of this grow and that it can’t be obvious to the point you can’t even have solar panels there?
