Lol I bought this lamp half price for $68 last month.. I didn't even take it out of the box. Now the regular prices is like $60 and it's currently on sale for less than $50. If anyone bought one and can still return it, I suggest you do so.

So you never tried it? Why are you saying to return it?

Because it's a POS. It was originally priced around $150 with a coupon code. I was smart enough to look into the ppfd and realized it wasn't worth what I paid so I returned it. If anyone else bought it when it was previously listed they could return it and buy it at it's newer much cheaper price.. but again it's a POS so I'm not sure why anyone would want it.
I've got literal stacks of these sale lights. If they aren't worth keeping at all I send them back. There was a 200w that was on here shortly after this one originally and I did a review for it because it was actually a quality light. Not sure what I'm going to do with it but it's currently resting under my back up Mars fc lol

I suppose that would be one way to look at it.. I also think I remembered feeling like the drop off to 16" was not great but I will admit for some reason my memory was that the 12" ppfd was in the 400s which is why I was like "tHe PpFd!¡!" For a bar light their spread isn't great and when I opened the box the shit just looked cheaply made. I will concede it would have been a decent light for the $40-50 but it is kind of a cheap POSI don't see anything wrong. Those numbers are a tiny bit better than the HLG 100.

Ya, I have all HLG LED's, but that light just looked like a decent deal considering the price. I know it's no where near the quality of the HLG's. I thought it might be an idea for people with a tighter budget. I'm kinda tempted to get it just to check it out and see what kind of quality $40 gets you. It'd be interesting to see how long it would last before diodes and shit started going out.

Anybody know a good humidifier that I can use really hard tap water with?

None. Hard water will clog them all.

How hard is your water, and do you know what's in it? You might be able to use your water and then just run citric acid through it occasionally to clear out the mineral deposits. It might even help to just add a little citric acid to the water, but I don't know about that one for sure.
There's also other stuff you can use to soften the hard water. KCl is cheap, and you can use it to make a pH probe storage solution too.

I think the last reading I took was over 600ppm on the 5 scale. That was a couple years ago, and it's gotta be a lot of calcium because I get terrible buildup on everything my water touches. I had gotten a Ninja coffee maker a few years back, and within a month it was clogged. Vinegar, de-scaler, clr, nothing got it working right again.How hard is your water, and do you know what's in it?

That's sucks. My well water is like 150 ppm or so, and it's gotta be mostly Ca because I get some Ca deposits too. Not as fast as you do though. I'd get some citric acid if I was you. It works great to de scale the Ca from shower heads and everything. You should also try to run some citric acid water through the Ninja if you still have it too.
This is what I use. It'll probably last me forever.
Your water sounds a bit too extreme to try to fix. You're probably better off sticking with RO.
