hey folks - First time poster so go easy if I post in wrong spot! I think this section covers LEDs!

Anywhos... I am loking for an LED lamp for my first grow - Being a euro consumer I don't want to to purchase outside Europe and deal with massive import duties and possibly long distance warranty issues if they arise.

I am gearing up for my first indoor 'controlled' grow should we say - previously I have grown in polytunells with varying success.

Electricity consumption is an issue so MH/HPS is out i think....

I cant decide whether to go with one panel or two and slightly overlap the throw of light and improve coverage ?

I am naively guessing that two lamps is better than 1 for coverage.?

OH and the budget for Led IS 300 EURO i'll base my tent coverage/plant ammount around what coverage I can squeeze.

For the money these are the panels I am considring getting two of:

Do they look al right?

No worries, just helping.

The ASTIR's are doing quite well too, PetFlora mentioned them, I forgot about them.

illuminator looks good unfortunately on the wrong side of the ocean and a little out of budget.
Is it my imagination or are those 1w Led's a bit more efficient on coverage or is the illuminator website specs a tad generous? ( I think its the former!)
