Honestly for the spectrum features, wattage and price GML is offering more than HLG in terms of Canadian pricing. An equivalent HLG fixture would be significantly more money than the tarantula or whatever he calls it. I'd definitely consider that the light. That being said, regardless of the accusations I still think HLg makes a good light even if the diodes are whatever bin. Who gives a shit really. The lights put out so much fucking par it's enough to sicken anyone's plants so really it's a matter of grower budget and preference in style.
