I just noticed it the first time when I was posting pics on one of my grows yesterday. I don't know how long it's been. The lights are below my height, and when I duck down under them, I try not to look up. I just happened to have it in one of the pics I posted.
I will disassemble and inspect more closely sometime this week. I'll post my findings.
The first sign was the price! Lol. Pay attention any newbies. You'll know you want or need a better light on the first grow. If you fuck up, waste your next check buying a light that works with the first bunk light. Then save for a more reliable light, hi ppf, good area coverage and a real warranty.
Yeah yeah.... I get it. When I got this one, I could tell right away that the engineering was substandard. All the others have been acceptable though. I still think @Marq1340 's coupon codes are well worth it for cheap entry level stuff, and I appreciate his postings.
Ok so I was trying to be funny, but realize the number 1 priority for a grower is a good light. I would work with what I have and only add what it needs. Don't even think about filling your 4x4 with plants. Back down to somewhere between 50 to 60% full that way you cater to the lights sweet spot. You'll get better results. Grab a 2000 series cheap light and throw it in with the burples and save for something better. I didn't mention expensive in this post, but you get what you pay for. Don't throw good money after bad.
Things break whether it be a low end or high-end product. The main problem here was tracker not getting his warranted light fixed/replaced.
I got tipped off about a Sunraise QB2000 on this thread and I'm pretty happy with it in a 2x2. It carries the same specs as my expensive Nextlight Core, but it has a dimmer that the Nextlight doesn't have. The OP is making the light adapt to his area 4x4. He should adapt the area to his light instead, possibly up to 3x3. It ain't what you got but how you use it. I should maybe call the Nextlight overpriced. It's not a bad light, just one that you pay a lot of money for and then realize you wish you had spent more on or bought something else
I've got 4 lights in a 4x8 and 1 light in a 3x3.
I never like the wording in these things.
Careful Bro., I was tempted as well, but I found a review saying that they only pulled 21 watts from the wall. These would probly be clone only lights, bummer...
See exactly why I post here when I don’t like the wording. Thank you
Check, check, is this thing on!!! You won't need the UV glasses for those lights.
