Any reason y'all went with the LGSU200? 90% efficient vs. 94% efficient on the Meanwell. Seems its priced the same as a Meanwell @ ~~$52.50 on Cutters site.

http://www.neo.ne.gov/statshtml/204.htm Colorado ranked 32nd in electricity prices. Not exactly "some of the lowest".

600W hid AFTER LOSS IS MAYBE 28% EFFICIENT at best. 168 PAR watts. 600w of CXB3590 @ 56% efficiency (common and cheapest option) is 303 PAR watts after loss. Most likely, you can double your HID harvest watt for watt. 300w of CXB3590 should be as good if not better than 600w HPS.

I was recently in a med grow facility. If by PERFECT you mean weak ass small buds that are half the size they should be, then sure, DE are perfect for high ceilings. IMO, grow facilities put lighting way too high. I understand the idea, I understand the commercialism, but it could be so much...

You must be one of those guys who believes HPS should shield near 1gpw always.... Fantasy land.

People are reading.... Given an area of 4x4 with 1000w HPS vs 600w of COB, you will produce roughly the same. How is that not a win? I know I ran 1000w HPS in 10sq ft and achieve 610g. With the same strain (3rd gen clone, 1000w run was done with 2nd gen clone), I was able to achieve 488g...

Can we get back on topic of this and have @PicklesRus amuse us more?

You are right, I havent seen Jerry on RIU but he still gave us all good pricing and tried to help us all which I felt he did. He provided lens/reflector options as well as holders to be purchased through him to make it easy. Im not saying Cutter does not deserve respect, but the way everyone...

If you have defective parts, Jerry will replace it. He has for people in the past. Jameco will only replace if its DOA or within their return, otherwise you go through the manufacturer just like all retailers. Keep in mind, I do not believe Jerry is end all for a second, but he has proven to...

Does someone have a source for cheap drivers in the states then? No backpedaling. Ill go with the cheapest available as I always have. I was very opposed to Jerry at first if you dont remember GG707, but he did earn my business. When I am ready to purchase, if Cutter has what I need for...

Not saying Cutter is bad, but until he gets drivers, savings is negated by having to purchase drivers elsewhere. That said, I think its funny how its OK for one retailer to sell under Cree's number with "work arounds" but its not ok for the next guy. Same fucking thing in the end so dont act...

Maybe months and months ago Jerry was like that... Hes had good stock of most everything for awhile now. Occasionally runs out of this or that, but thats pretty normal. Also, I thought Cutter was selling 3590 for $42? What happened to that? I am seeing $44 on his site w/ the code. And if...

I dont know if Cutter was ever cheaper in the end was he? He was only cheaper because he shipped the slowest method possible. And he didnt have the stock that Jerry did so how would he fulfill large orders? Correct me if I am wrong though.

By the time you separate shipping, there wont be any savings. Bulk discounts save on shipping cost. Plus, we already get some of the best prices on the net through Jerry @ KB

I hope its not the leaf filled nug that needs a good trimming in your avatar.

Dutty gets free PLED lamps, thats why. Hes the ultimate in product shills.

We already know the 420 members are arriving. The MarsHydro lights threads are popping up daily with strong backing and resistance to realize that they fucking suck and are less efficient than HPS.

Price per watt is 1 cent more on the MW LPC-100-350 than the Phillips. It is cheaper, but its also 50w less output. Not sure why everyone is skipping over that crucial detail :) Still, MW is a better option IMO than the Phillips.

There is a $12.50 difference, but there is also a 50 watt difference. The driver he is talking about is 150w while Meanwell are 200w. Price per watt is the same. And while the efficiency isnt a huge loss, why lose at all at the same price? Plus, Meanwell have proven to be great drivers for...

Costs the same as a Meanwell driver per watt and they are only ~90% efficient. Less efficient than Meanwell for the same price.... So where is the savings? No need to change if there is no savings. Also, if you want high voltage low current, the HLG-185-500a does just that. Not sure why you...
