I noticed spider farmer doesn’t have the advertisement badge anymore. So count them out I guess.

The par test for this light in a 4x4 at 80% is pretty amazing. I'm going to go for it. I'll post a grow diary once my current plants finish up. Oh gosh, I wonder if I've become an LED person. Not sure how I feel about that... Excited to test this baby out!

haha, i will follow the grow.
give the light a fair chance by playing with the intensity till you find your sweet spot.
dont nail yourself on a number, i am sure you read your plants well and adjust as they need.
why i say this, i think these modern lights are like chemical fertilizer, good, but could be overdone, less is sometimes more bla bla.

This thread has become my obsession. Buying new lights soon and was pretty decided on what I was getting until I saw this, but don’t think I have the guts to go with this and save the money until I see some others give it a go. Ha.

I'm used to HIDs so there will be a learning curve I'm sure. It will be a month to 6 weeks before I can start the journal-I've got at least that long left on my current grow, and I'm just mixing up a batch of living soil right now that needs some time to cook-I'm replacing my fabric pots with a single 4x4 bed-so this journal will be fun, totally organic plus new light.

I'm was the same way, I was torn! I compared par tests for 4x4s for a couple of days. Oh, just an fyi the guy who was given the test light from cocoforcannabis started a youtube grow journal using it, he's got it in a 5x5 right now vegging his plants, so you can see it in action as his grow progresses-i forgot his name but it was easy to find. I'm sure you'll see a bunch more reviews-the rep said they are selling out fast after the cocoforcannabis review.

Thanks! I checked out a journal he started with it, but things weren’t too far along. I’ll definitely keep an eye on the YouTube stuff from him and watch your grow whenever you get things going with the light. I would love to save the money, that’s for sure.

It's an interesting light honestly, but hard to buy with virtually no reviews or track record. And the mystery drivers aren't thrilling either...kind of defeats the purpose of trying to cool my tent down by switching from 600 watts of HID though, esp with internal drivers.

600w of hps. And 600w of led are really different.

HPS gives off so much radiant heat it's crazy. With LED a good inline fan can suck the heat right off the fixture out of the tent pretty easy.

Tru dat, plus, I realized I'd only be running it at 80% based on the 4x4 par map, so that dropped the temps a lot-it'll be positively chilly compared to my current light. Thanks for the input!

I've been trying to hold off on the 8 bars until I can save up. I'm sure more brands are going to keep popping up with this fixture type so we'll see if competition drives prices down. I honestly always fear Meijiu is going to raise prices. I don't know anything though, we'll see!

If I can get these or another model of theirs and get just about the same results as the Chilled or Photontek lights I’m about to get I could save some decent cash. No light expert though and don’t get how these are so much cheaper than the others. Ha. Glad I decided to wait until 4/20 to see if there are any deals on the lights I was deciding between, because I would’ve never come across these.
