Added 4 2’ strips to the setup this new run. I’ll see if it makes a big difference.

Im sure they will grow great but I don't think they are the genuine article. They say HLG in the title but don't have HLG printed on the boards. The heat sink is certainly not standard.
If you buy them you need two of them for a 2x4 tent. so its $270, the genuine product from HLG is on sale at $330.
I know lots of folks running the Chinese copies and having good results, but for $60 difference I would be picking up the real thing.
Im not against folks saving money but for me its peace of mind. If you want to spend less then DIY with genuine strips from genuine retailers.
This guy on ebay is just reselling Chinese copies and when you take the heat sink out of the price he's selling them at the same price as the genuine article. He wont be importing the heat sinks due to the weight.

No, the ultimate measurement is how the plants perform.
