I am considering a move to LED's because of space issues. I'm on the cheap and will likely DIY if I go ahead. Can I ask if members can chime in on the following concerns that I have. The are pitched as statements that may or may not be true. I hope this thread helps clear up some misconceptions that other new players might have and sparks some discussion that helps microgrowers.
1. When considering the inefficiencies in drivers and heat dissipation of the actual modules, LED's are always less efficient than CFLS.
2. LED Systems produce the same light, efficiencies and conditions as CFL the only difference is the space they take up.
3. DIY led systems require advanced skills in electronics putting them outside the reach of unqualified users.
4. You'll never amount to anything with those. Get a 600 hps and convert your spare room or give up the game.
Thanks for responding.
