Nice to see youre still at it. Yeah I hear ya. My issue with some/most/all lights is that they still cut corners. Inferior drivers, relatively low led count running at high power. Will probably break sooner. Also if they have a 4ft light the bars are only a little over 3ft. We all know the...

With led youre better off with a good subcanopy lighting setup. will reduce larf by a lot Think 3x3 yields from a 2x2

Any point to DIYing these days? Only feasible build I can come up with it (still) EB gen 2s. Everything else the price is so high it barely justifies DIYing. Just 200 lm/w strips (Q series 2 for example) are more expensive than a full light from retailers. Unfortunately theyve all moved away...

Bridgelux consider themselves too good to respond to plebian consumers, even if you have assloads of their products. I recommend everyone in the world to choose a company that is not busy sucking dick all day. They are truly and utterly worthless. Contrast with TRP who reply within a day.

Cant believe anyone replied to this thread. What a cesspool of a forum. Just a bunch of NPCs who never done any research come to post stupid questions expecting to get their hands held. If I make a thread titled "LED" with the text body "LED!" you'll get the exact same content as this thread

Yeah man don't change a winning formula. 2kw you are way too invested for some sidegrades with bad warranty.

Stick with the 1kws Read led forums for at least 2 months and inform yourself. Youre gettin ready for an impulse buy posting about the same shitty chinese leds that have been discussed in a million threads. Next you will come here asking why you have yellow plants in a 72 F led room.

Lol this is getting ridiculous they are all selling the same shit with different names. BP3000 FP1000 SP800 TS2000 where does the madness end and when will we reach power levels of over 9000?

Most posts here are absolute entry level. Now somebody comes with an informative thread and gets told to do something else. I think you shared some interesting info that shows how awful these "diode coffins" as I call them are.

Dont think you can get measurements that are worth a shit on android devices which all use a different camera/sensor/whatever. At least iphones use the same technology.

Someone on this forum tested a lux meter against a PAR sensor and the lux meter was about 30% off, both sunlight and white leds. It's a useful tool for white leds if you know how wrong your meter is. Otherwise I would advise against trusting the readings completely. edit: Since you are planning...

Heres a tip for your next grow, waiting for the 6th node is a noob meme and a waste of time, just top it at the 3rd node if you want to mainline (or distribute energy without mainlining). No offense to you, you cannot help the fact that poor information gets spread on the internet. If a seedling...

I love how nobody has mentioned that its just a less vigorous seed

Point a fan at it and you'll have a light mover. Thing looks like it barely stays steady without wind Still a cool thing though :)

I think I should have added that I'm talking about side by sides by people who are not very intimately connected with light sellers. edit: I ain't got shit on Or Gro or anyone. The way I see it though is that his work is being used to sell lights. Some of my work (photography) is also used to...
