It was. Im just looking to get a "permanent" light thats good quality and within my price range. I would have pulled the trigger if i wasnt waiting for the HLG sale. Now after i passed up on multiple good deals, im going to be pissed if for some reason they dont have it.

Hlg lights aren’t permanent. The driver on either light should outlast the leds. You might get two or three years out of a board. LEDs do degrade over time

Yeah thats why i put it in quotes. I dont expect them to last forever but they should last a while and if i do have a problem i imagine i should be able to get some decent customer service. Im really only considering it because of the potential of getting it discounted.

My HLGs have dropped about 10-12% IN pAR readings since new (about 4 years old with 12 hours a day on them at 75% power) I have had to replace the Mean Wells though

If I were to buy a second set does it look like I would I be able to physically connect them both?

The user manual suggests that the power cable can be separated above the hard shutoff switch to use for daisy chain. I cant test it though.
I will look at it more closely tomorrow morning, and I'll let you know what if it seems feasible.

****The Q&A section on Amazon has a response from SUNRAISE saying that it cannot be daisy chained***

Hmmm... that's good to know. I wasn't aware that leds did that. I learn something new everyday! :bigjoint:

I don't suppose you'd be willing to share that video with me would you?

It's a migro video about led degradation over time, I think it was like 6k hours. The hlg had a acrylic panel on the front which increased the heat by a lot thus increasing the degradation of the leds. Unfortunately I got to head to work lol. I'll see if I can post it on my break

Nice looking grow man. I'm not shit talking the power of hps. I know what they are capable of. I do question the efficiency and heat produced though. Anyways... obviously hps works great for you. For what I'm doing led is the best choice. :bigjoint:
