Hahaha hahah. What?!? No. One board ran low power without an additional heatsink needed will work infinitely better than what you were intending to do.

Just so you know any amount of flow is enough to mor heat in a system. Whether youre moving 500w or 5000w worth of heat, any water flow will move that heat. If you don't remove the heat somehow from the system you could use a 500w pump with 5000gph and it wouldn't matter. Pumps don't remove...

Please define "crush".

So what is going to set you apart from all the other options out there? I feel like you have to beat the competition in one of three ways. Features, price marketing...

LOL, expecting a salesman who won an election using a steady stream of hyperboles to be against this type of shit??? pleeeeeaaase. Its not like these are "reputable" companies, theyre typically ebay resellers whom youre never going to get a class action suit against. At what point does it...

People dont like to spend money when cheaper options are available, shocking. lol But this is why marketing is so very important.

Damn near every strain known to man has been genetically modified through human breeding. People and their paranoia of "gmo's" always gives me a chuckle. Just make sure you take care in storing your seeds properly.

In a case like this though, it would almost certainly rely on a faulty piece from a particular supplier, which you would be able to hold that supplier accountable regardless of whether or not you had an "led professional" design it.

What are you talking about suing people if "it doesnt work out"? If what doesnt work out? The light? Also, where do you think these professionals go to obtain this research? Answer, the internet most likely. You realize hes not tasking us with building the light, simply getting ideas...

Rather than following the crowd I would recommend being innovative and separating yourself from the pack. Margins on these things are not going to be great as competition heats up and the tech is currently advancing so fast that by the time you've sunk your money into it, someone else is...

The market jaded itself because they wanted to believe things too good to be true. (Omg, I can get this 1000w led on ebay for under $200?! Hell yeah!) It'd also help if most led sellers didn't use "comparative" wattages and just used actual wattage.

Whats the logic behind not using bridgelux chips? Cheaper, better performing and reputable... I doubt you'll get much praise here for using older, less efficient chips simply to save a buck.

This thread is 7 years old... And what's stopping you from contacting the company considering all the info you need is in the OP? More importantly. Do you think this thread would have only lasted a month if these really worked?

Just because you set your ppfd at an arbitrary number does not mean you are "maximizing" your light. There's no way to actually maximize your light other than to experiment and see what the plant can handle. And being that there are multiple ways to adjust ppfd, there are tons of different...

And to clear a couple things up. LEDs are going to replace HID eventually regardless of what cooling options are available. Also, water cooling solutions are typically much more expensive to implement (especially if you are planning on reclaiming the heat) so the initial cost is a barrier...

The thing is, really, water cooling isnt even really necessary at wattages that low. Passive heatsinks do just fine. Im curious though, so youre just running it from your bucket to your light back to your bucket with about ~150w of heat being added, right? That should add about 13*F an hour...

Why didn't you ask him the height he plans on running his lights at. Would have a huge impact whether the plants are getting too much light or not...

What do you mean by this? The pump doesn't really do any "cooling" per se. Do you have a radiator or anything to actively remove heat from the system? Also, this is a pretty bold statement... especially if you're talking just the lamp system and not the setup as a whole. Unless you are...

Still need to know what kind of lighting setup you want, how big your room is to get any idea of what kind of cooling you might need. Its about as "scalable" as any air cooled setup, dont know who you really mean by that. Also, from personal experience, I would consider using fans and...

How could you not tag yoda in this post LOL.
