They're 2200K but the CRI is 65 and they say they're designed to replace HPS street lighting and there's no spectrum analysis on the data sheets

Just wondered what peoples thought were

Half way down on this PDF shows the spectral output. I don't like the looks of it, but to each their own.

I wouldn`t mind using that spectrum towards the 2nd half of finishing....Nice red and green mix with touch of blue to keep the auxins excited.....1st four weeks, give me a touch more blue........60% of the time all time

Near the end of the data sheets there is an ugly looking spd.

Huge portion in the 500-600nm range.

as an aside i wish this "CLU551-3626" die layout was available in white cobs. sounds like a beast.....

44% more dies than a 3618

i was thinking 2 amber and 2 blues and 4 holders and 4 thermal pads to add in the grow but dam they pricier than the 1212 gen 6 3500k i just bought 22 of them and some other things from you so far they working real good. just trying to see if the added uv from blues and the 2200k spectrum help flowering out?

never did run them. 2700k 90 is more red than id use normally, and this is on the other side of that.

im still a big fan of 3500k 90 cri. phenomenal results every time in flower
