Can 4 of these match 1000 watt HPS SE?

It would have 16 COBs and some diodes using about 800 watts of power. I prefer QBs but 2 x 260 QBS would run about $348 x 2.

Any other ideas?

They are 200w at the wall so 4 of them would be 800w so matching more or less 800w hps.. so 5 would mean close to a 1000hps.. dont fall for that 400w claim for their light.. they will grow might as well just pit a 1000w hps tho they are pretty much as efficient which mean a 5 unit like you posted would generate as much heat as a 1000w hps

they dont give any information whatsoever on actual output or efficiency so its anybody's guess

my guess: not any more efficient than HPS so youd need 1000W to replace a 1000W HPS

If you want to get it cheap get the fake QB's from Alibaba. Even if they maybe not using top bin diodes they blow this shitty blurples above out of the water.

Many claims but again no clear numbers. 7 positive reviews, but that says nothing and the youtube vid from the 2nd. review seems already removed. The COB's are far too close to each other for my taste, which indeed does provide high levels in the center, but this hotspot is actually more bad than useful.
No information about the used binnings and which COB's are used. Own development? I don't think so! The COB's are round, but that's all that makes them lookin' more interesting...
