For me I did a bxeb build was the cheapest but took me a while to build and cut the metal etc but I can the 2x4 fixture on a 320 from a 240 I’m on now but I like rubbing them a little bit on the low side even though I have heat sinking o think for a 2x4 bxeb build it was 400-500 I think I like it

Hi mate

In terms of replacing a 600W HPS you'd be looking at 240W of Samsung LM301B/H diodes. This will provide you a little bit more yield than the 600W, for 40% of the electricity and heat generated. We sell LEDS, we are based in the UK but do ship internationally. Our ShapeShift 240W is pre-built, full Samsung LM301B/H +added 660NM red for flowering. 3 year warranty as standard.

We also have a video showing the difference in temp management using our LED vs HPS too here:

Or if your looking for something to replace 300W of actual HPS power we have a 150W Stealth UFO thats a little cheaper,

Hope that helps bud
All the best - Arron
1. You can not advertise here unless you are a paid advertiser. https://www.rollitup.org/Advertise/
2. 240w of LM301B does not replace 600W HPS.
3. Your website needs work.
4. Pre-order only?
 
Get the Aussie high light. It has UV and far red and higher than 90 CRI. It will produce some amazing bud in your space. I don't have it personally, I like to make my lights. They have a thread with bud pics so you can do proper research before you throw down cash.

EDIT:
The HLG is overrated IMO. You can do much better for less money if you DIY

I don't think the Diablos are being sold as singles/diy anymore (not to *anyone), due to the reverse polarity sensitivity - which is due to the red diodes used, and the amount of user error and some issues from that.
So they'll be pre-assembled, for a "small" fee, I think.

I might recommend the qb96 elite v2, though. So many options (including wattage options) with those. And for coverage, they're affordable enough to buy however many you want for your space (area and height); 4, 5, or 6 of them. Each can handle up to about 200w (with ease, I mean), though I'd suggest 100-150w.

A v3 of them is in the works but duno eta.

The wattage recommendations sound good. I don't have experience with strips, or cobs. The growlightsaustralia gear looks/sounds good.

Someone was just asking about the Diablo boards on the DIY With Quantum Boards thread. @CobKits is still selling them on his website (with no warranty and a warning about miswiring under the product description).

Oh that's right. I knew that too, hah.
It's weird it even says "backorder" available, or whatever, which makes it sound like hlg is gonna continue to sell them as singles/diy to that vendor... I duno.
Good one though.
