It doesn't mean anything, the study is completly unrelated. It is based off work with monos not different spectrums of white.

Really?

You keep calling it a street lamp like its a derogatory term not just where the technology flourished and sold well. They are also targeted spectrum grow lights with a focus on red and emphasis on intensity. Comparing your cfls to targeted spectrum LEDs is kind of misinforming as well especially...

The study said lights missing green underperformed. As they added green to led red/blue monos the performance increased but gains were insignificant after 24% green was present

Hps light are about 32% efficient, sometimes more sometimes less. Adding a less efficient light source will not increase the efficiency combined. New diy led fixtures can be easily 56% efficient. To break that down for you 1000w worth of hps you will get 320w par watts and 680w of heat. The led...

I like that he is promoting his product but the false info I could do without. He needs to learn more about the market he is focusing on and stop mis-informing people. He is reaching to far with unrelated studies and misinterpreted conclusions. Over on icmag in the side by side section are a...

I'm guessing it will be a uv based cob instead of the 450nm (unsure of exact nm) we get from manufacturers now. Sds posted something awhile back about the cob technology possibly heading that direction. I'm going to kick it old school with my cxa-3070 3000k AB's for a little while and see what...

Look into adding another intake lower in the box. It will help move air over the plants do they don't build up moisture and rot. Or add a circulation fan to keep condensation from building up in areas of stagnant airflow.

That $30 doesnt include sockets and reflectors

Do you have any bulbs that have good output in the UV-A and UV-B? With leds using blue chips converted to white with phosphors they are making little to no UV and many are supplementing with reptile UV bulbs.

There is no way possible unless you can change the laws of physics

On a budget? Why not buy a couple cxb or vero at a time to supplement your 600w and eventually replace it. Hps and diy leds work well together and you have a lot of space

If you ordered the stainless ones I advise you to be careful when screwing them in. Stainless is softer and you can twist the heads off if you try to turn them to hard.

Anyone tried uv-a monos with cobs?

Chromed heatsinks and a soldering kit? I'm here for the show

My money is on 2x2 because that would be a killer light in a 2x2 and it doesn't look like he messes around

Sounds like you need a little practice to become familiar with it. I'm sure myself and others can help answer questions to get you up to speed but the knowledge of how to figure it out will serve you well. Imagine if your old teachers rewarded you with weed and money for doing your homework.

My micro cab has a height of 29". Dimming comes in handy and I run about 6-9" away from two cxa3070 ab bins. In 3gal smartpots
