I'm in the process of writing a PM to fdd2blk to see if he will be willing to help out. To my knowledge, the prices that I gave in the first post would be the prices that everyone would get. Now, if the order were big enough (ie, 100 or more), we might get a better deal on them. More than likely...

First, I'd like to know where you come up with your time scale. 5 years is a LONG time, technologically speaking. Siemens, the European engineering leader, is projecting that by 2012, the market for LEDs will triple (to over 13 billion euros). Did you know that the European Union has been...

Personally, I would suggest the 5- 300W as opposed to the 9- 150W. It's almost exactly the same cost, with the 5- 300W being just slightly more expensive than 9- 150W. The bigger difference is that the 5- 300W would be putting out more lumens than one more additional 150W (4760 extra lumens!) I...

That's pretty much my take on it. I'm sure the first time someone said, "Hey, let's use this crazy fluorescent lightbulb with no filament to grow plants," very few people probably accepted it. Now it's one of the most widely used methods of doing microgrows. It will just take time and verifiable...

I apologize if you thought I was referring to you. I know at the current time, I could definitely not afford more than 1 600W lamp, let alone 9 150W lamps. You asked if 9 150W lamps would be enough to do 24 plants in an 8x8x8 room. My answer remains yes, I was simply stating the fact that 1-2...

UPDATE: I was just sent some pictures of the lights from the manufacturer. Here they are! 90W UFO 90W UFO 120W 150W (Not Pictured) 300W 300W 600W (This thing is a fuckin' beast!)

I'm not sure if I understand what you're asking about the company. They are a manufacturer, and as such will sell quantities to a distributor. The price would remain constant as long as the product remains the same. Assuming that there are no major changes in the product, you could expect to pay...

You clearly have not read more than the first post. As I stated before, I have no desire to handle the money. I am trying to get the operators of this website involved to do that. And as I said before, possibly in a different thread, $25 a month savings, going from 1000W HID to 300W LED is...

I don't mean to offend you, yellowsnowman, but I would appreciate it if you would refrain from responding to this thread again. I have already said every response I am going to say, to another young gentleman who has identical views as you, regarding LEDs. If you are wondering what those...

Let's see. Sizes of everything (except 60W, I don't think they're offering that anymore): 90W UFO - 10 5/8" DIA x 2 3/8" H 120W - 15 3/4" L x 8 3/8" W x 2 3/8" H 150W - 18 7/8" L x 9 7/8" W x 2 9/16 H 300W - 18 7/8" L x 12 1/4" W x 3 1/16" H 600W - 36 1/2" L x 12 1/4" W x 3 3/4" H And...

Sooooo would the shit from a VEGAN work? ;) hahaha Scratch that, the plant would be malnourished...you ever seen a fat vegan?

Sorry, I should have been more clear on that. Their 60W and 90W lamps come in the familiar circular UFO shape. The 120W, 150W, 300W, and 600W lamps come in a box shape. If I remember what I looked at correctly, the 150W size is 19" x 10" x 3" if that answers your question. The UFO is about 11"...

Yeeeeeah...I'm good on that. I'm not big on needless gore in the first place, and when I get acid, I only get gooooood shit. So I don't need to have a hard trip while watching something as emotionally, mentally, physically, auditorially, and visually disturbing as the Saw series, lol. I think...

Based strictly on the information presented in the listing and from ThaiBoy, I would say it's a safe bet that this light will work decently for vegetative growth. However, I personally would still not pay $230 for it. I do not wish to solicit anything, but if you really want to be able to save...

Also something I just now noticed, that might be of interest. I looked at the PDFs on the website for the grow lights, and the "CREE" logo is at the bottom of each page...I am waiting for a response back to find out if the LEDs they use in these lamps are CREE LEDs, since these are known to be...

This is a fantastic discussion. I'm sure many people who are on the fence will benefit by reading through this whole thread. There are many, many manufacturers out there, some reputable, some not...we're just trying to help you all weed through the bullshit that the disreputable ones feed you. A...

I will say, the people at Gotham Hydro seem to have more of a grip on things than the eBay distributor. Their comparison on usable lumens between the lights is pretty accurate, but still flawed. It's just flawed in a way that allows people to still gain an understanding for what they're dealing...

The problem (and I'll be pretty much duplicating this post in a different thread about LEDs), is this: Luminous intensity is relative to the human eye. In fact, it's relative to the wavelength that the human eye is most sensitive to -- 555nm (what we would refer to as pure green). Humans tend...

I can agree with you to a point about the eBay listing. I would also like to read the original article to see what's up. But looking at that listing, I simply could never bring myself to purchase something that had as many errors in the sales pitch as that did. However, I still hold my ground...

EDIT: FIRST POSTED JOKE OF THE NEW YEAR! Here's a few more Helen Keller jokes for those of us that are going to hell for sure. Why does Helen Keller masturbate with only one hand? Because she has to moan with the other one! Why can't Helen Keller drive? Because she's a woman! And one more...
