Where can I find a complete hid setup for 35 bucks? Cheap led twice the cost of an hid??Ill buy it right now lol and as far as heat . my led throws off hardly any heat at all as any hid lighting I've seen runs hot. . idk how you figure same heat output? If everyone had the money we would all run the best lights out there. But as far as saying a cheap led is a waste if money. Thats pretty ignorant don't you think? I got 240 actual watts for 70 bucks. By the time you get a bulb a ballast and any thing you'd need for a complete hid setup you're well up over 150 . ik not saying a cheap led is better than hid. I'm saying if your on a tight budget and looking for sufficient lighting .. A cheap led would work perfect. Also I've ran the led 24 7 . no heat issues.. No change in electric bill. And no wires had to be ran . just plug and play.. K.I.S.S. keep it simple stupid lol

Why so sensitive and combative?
I meant quality led is much more expensive than the equivalent hid.
Just offering my 2 cents.
As happy as you seem to be with your light, it is still an inefficient alternative to an actual good led.

Lol I didn't mean to come off as either of those. I just see so many ppl discouraging others on here. Saying if you don't spend top dollar its a waste of time .. Ive seen on another one a guy said if you didn't spend over 500 on your set up throw your plants in the garbage. I see it all the time. I was simply letting him and you know that a cheap light isn't a waste of money. If you find the right one that works for your application that's all that matters. I did a budget grow this round to show ppl if you dont have money to spend ..don't worry. You can grow great plants under cheap lights. If you had to . sorry if I came off on a defensive side lol
