Hi all,
I am in the midst of a pc grow case, which ahs left me antsy for more room. So I am picking up a small grow tent, 2'x2'x5'3", as i am only looking to do 2-3 plants at a time. So I am wondering if anyone has tried these lights, as LED i believe would be cheapest option when you include cooling and reflector etc with HPS/MH. I would be using one of these panels per plant and throwing in a few 26w CFL as need be.

Thanks in advance

holynpoly is right on those are crap not fit for the dump......14 watt's per pannel is not enough for any grow!!!save your money..do some research, not from the company's but from grower's who will be honnest!!!MINIMUM 90 watt system's (2 watt's per LED!)......don't be cheap be frugel!! jack

Wicked, that's what I need to hear. Thanks guys. I am seeing 3w diodes on there(not this light) but "we drive our leds to only 1.6w" so a 200w (200/3*1.6) light is actually 106w. So general rule of thumb with hid I believe is min 100w for first plant and 50w for each plant there after? ie 2 plants sun system 150w, 4 plants sun sytem 250w (brand cause everyone knows it). Does the same rule apply to LED as in that 200w panel being driven at 106w would be good for one plant? Failing this if someone could suggest another way to do a 2x2x5 tent and keep the heat/cost low and then I can post that question in appropriate thread.

Shoot for 60 watts per square foot! the minimum for any indica crosses for grade "A" bud's, .. sativa's do O.K.....equatorial sativa's need 70-80 watt's per square foot!! Try two pannel's!!

Just answered questions and gave advice where the question was asked. How many questions are asked on these threads? A lot. Not a spammer. Comparison shopping is always a good idea and there are a lot of resources out there.

If you feel the need to go thread to thread and tell people about those leds, I'm sure that means you have experience with them, and it would be nice if you could show us some pics of the light and some pics from your busybee led harvest.

Looking for to the pics.

Really don't need pix when advising people to comparison shop now do ya? Are you telling me you wouldn't comparison shop products or maybe learn about other resources? I stand by my posts and info. Do the research... want pix of the product? Go to their web sites.

Let me get this straight, you're gonna tell people to buy these LEDs, but you never used them yourself? No links to even point us to a grow which would validate your recommendation?

I want to see the pics of YOUR Busybee LED, not the website pics. You know, I would have never said anything, but I seen 6 near identical posts by you, all posted within 12 hours, telling people to look at Busybee LEDs.

I have never seen a grow with the Busybee LED, and as far as I've seen, you're the only person even mentioning them on the internet short of Ebay and the Busybee website. I bet you're selling them.

And by the way, I talked to Busybee on the phone, the guy did not know anything about what he was selling. Couple basic questions and I had the guy stuttering. I'm not a big fan of Blackstar, but at least they can answer most questions.

I think you should move to Sri Lanka. I've never been there, and I know nothing about it, but it has a cool shape on the map. ;)

No remuneration here for either site. I have one account, where for all I know, you have multiples. If you want to spend more for similar products, then go ahead and do no comparison shopping. That's all I ever intended. At least if what you wrote is true you went to the other sites. Many of the LED products come off the same Chinese assembly line with different names on them. Just suggesting people comparison shop. I didn't go trolling, but evidently I caught one. Don't need your baggage...I'm outta here.

Seeya. And why did you post busybee in the LED company thread when if you had checked you would have seen I had already posted that company. You WEREN'T comparing there, you were spamming you hypocritical lying shill. Busybee LED is a Chinese reseller and I'm sure you aren't getting paid by them because, as you've pointed out in your previous posts, you're not smart enough. You're a shill at best and your killing these two companies around these parts. Good Job! :finger:

And I apologize to thejimi for hijacking and crapping his thread. Normally I don't do stuff like this but there's enough lying weasels in the LED business already and the new ones need to be exposed ASAP! Sorry.
