Hi guys, what would output more heat Watt for Watt.

400w of HPS, or 400w of CFL... lets say they have the same cooling..

Also... kinda same question.. Is one HID 400w cooler than a bunch of CFLs.


Thanks!

it all depends on your air intake and exit, my veg area is open so it doesn't get hot with the 8 CFLs that I'm using
