So I just want to know what you guys think about Optic LED grow lights. I currently own an Optic 1xl. It was pretty pricey when I bought it, around 250$, I feel like I could’ve gotten something better though.
I’ve been reading some threads and everybody says they are just garbage rebranded lights that are overpriced. What are your guy’s thoughts?

I think they’re pretty nice, but a tad over priced for sure. I feel like, saving round 1k and getting one nice, powerful light with really good coverage is the way to go. I’ve had pretty good success using a mismatched set of different led grow lights, but one would be way cleaner looking, and would cost pretty much the same in the long run. You’re probably aware of ledgrowlightsdepot.com, if not check em out. This is the light I’m getting.

That’ is one beasty light right there running 780watts?!?! That’s some crazy energy right there. When I start getting back on my feet I’m for sure gonna save up for something similar to that. I have my eyes on the ES300’s from TheGreenSunshineCompany.

An ES300 is $700 and doesn't even cover a 4x4. IMO that's extremely overpriced. I'd never even consider them. For $1300 shipped you can get a Timber Fatty VS that's 950 watts and will cover 5x5. It'd cost $2100 for 3 ES300 to equal the coverage, they aren't as good as Timber either. HLG also makes some quality lights.

Thanks for the reply, I’m thinking of trying these out over a bed in a room with other beds that have HID lights in them. I’m worried that I may run into issues with the different temps that I see recommended for LED vs HID. Will the LED s be pointless in this set up I keep the overall temps in the room from 75-80f? ( no c02, but massive air exchange for cooling)

tnb naturals has co2 bottles they are supposed to do a 12x12 room. 40 canadian but worth it. I've got two McGyvered 2l pop bottles i mix yeast and sugar and they gas off pretty good when temp is 85 or 90
