So this company is offering product for testing, try before you buy sorta arrangement. I have a few clients that may be interested but I thought I would run their products past you all to see what you think. I know there are many experienced LED users on here and I value their input on the matter.

I have included the pdf files in this post.

Prices seem on track with HLG except HLG just dropped. Scorpion was $1560 and is now $1280. The Matrx 630 is $1585. Being here in Canada it's cool to see a Canadian Manufacturer. It also has a 5 year warranty which looks good. It also says mounting height is 6" above canopy, that is interesting. Something to keep an eye on. Thanks for sharing.

Canadian manufacturing

that was the main thing That caught my eye and a huge positive, Canada made, we need some competing brands to succeed in the lighting market

The 6" from canopy thing is really interesting. If I did that with my HLG I would destroy my plants. For space restricted folks to have a fixture that can be that close would be a game changer.

this is one of the main reason i love my diy strips , i sit my lights on top of my canopy without issue.

run them soft, lots of strips, easily within 1-2" for perfect lux across the entire canopy.

prob why i have such a hard on for strip fixtures lol

Checked out their website and the lights look clean. Seem legit but seems like there's not a whole lot of technical details offered for their lights compared to the other tech sheets put out by similar companies. Maybe I just missed those details?

One thing I like is their "trade up" program. I like that idea. Haven't really seen it anywhere else as far as I can remember. I know there's a couple others out there where you can swap, interchange or replace one or all of the bars in a fixture.

Will be interested to see if this type of support starts trending more across other companies. I dig it
