Amazon Prime all have Samsung LM301 (mostly B not H) and Meanwell drivers:
FC series by MARS
XS series by Viparspectta
Spiderfarmer SF series
There’s a couple other ones but even more of a knockoff so better know how to tell if counterfeit fiords/drivers. This one checks all the boxes and is inexpensive but is it real?
Kowekast TMJ 3200.

Thats one of the only problems with the knockoffs, are the parts they say they have, really there?

Any pics of your plants grown under authentic lights?
Authentic lights? I feel like you misunderstood my comment, I use SILs for godsakes. A light is a light, but if they say they are using Samsung's lm301h yet in reality they are not, then that ain't right. Hell, imo if they are using epistar idgaf but they better not say they are using something else if they are.

3.19 umol per watt
Chilled growcraft ultra


Cant wait to see the knockoff off this light alibaba !
Keep it bright
 
Has anyone ever heard of Volt Lighting? They mostly make landscaping lighting but they have a couple of grow lights in their lineup.

After shopping the market for a while I decided to give them a shot, mostly because they have a 440 watt fixture on sale for $350. And they don't seem like the kind of company that's going to BS on specs - I have a feeling when I connect a Killawatt to it it's going to be right on the money.

VL-1 Full-Cycle LED Grow Light | VOLT® Lighting

It's a bit of a pig in a poke because I did a pretty thorough web search and was unable to find anyone who knew anything about them, let alone having completed a grow with them, so I'll be something of a beta tester. But it seems to have the right stuff: Samsung/Osram chipset, three levels of dimming control, huge aluminum heatsink, five-year warranty, and its footprint fills a 3x3 area very nicely.

Once I get it I plan on running some heat tests to see how much it warms the tent and how much airflow it takes to keep things cool. If anything is out of order I will take advantage of the 30 day no-restocking-fee return policy.

Yeah, there's a whole thread dedicated to it :-)
Kingbrite is one of the top 3 alibaba makers out there.

If you haven't read this thread below, your research is just beginning:

I tried to make it work, but that lamp is just too powerful for a 3x3 space, at least, for my purposes. The tent got so hot even at the middle power setting I didn't see any way I could use it. Part of the issue is I'm in Arizona and unless I want to run the A/C in the low 70s I'm going to have issues with heat. If I were still in Oregon, where I was growing in a nice cool garage, I would not have returned it.

I did have to pay for return shipping, but, I figure that was part of the risk in trying what really is a low-cost option for the amount of power you're getting. That thing made daylight in my apartment. Would be great for a 4x4.

Replaced it with a Maxsisun MF2000 - a 230 watt lamp that has a smaller footprint and will provide better airflow.
