Can anyone recommend high-end LED? My SK400+ just died.. :(

Justin Freidman · Apr 30, 2018

Hey Guys,

One of my Spectrum King 400+ has just died and I'm mid flower (I was running 3 of them) I need to replace it asap.

Can anyone recommend a better alternative? Or shall I just one of their SK402's?

Thanks for any advice,
J.

You can send it back,and they can upgrade it to a SK402 for a fraction of the price of a new one.

Really? They will do that? It's one of the first SK400+ and is a few years old.

Kind is an overpriced average light, but if they will refurbish at minimal charge ...

What's the coverage area?

Justin Freidman · Apr 30, 2018

Hey PetFlora. The babies are in a secret jardin dr240w - 8' x 4'

Maybe I will go back to old style metal halide / hps in cool tubes.

For the money you better off going with HLG.

PLC do make good lights.
HLG 600h would work well too.
Worth checking timber grow lights too.

Yes, of course... lol. Why wouldn't I?

Kingrow1 · Apr 30, 2018

What are you waiting for, take one of the suggestions and kill this thread already....

Why are led growers so indecisive!?

I’d stick with hlg or timber, those plc lights don’t tell you the brand cob they’re using or the bin number for them.

Most likely top of the line everything.

I prefer a company that tells me what they’re using. All the others that make good lights do. It gives good insight on what your getting.

I'l check out HLG or TIMBER. I emailed spectrum king AND plc about ordering 2 more lights and neither of them replied. Not even a thank you for your email we will respond soon... shitty customer service.
