I guarantee ours would in the C02 set-up I just described.

Locking up the office now. 100%. I'm definately going.

Thanks for listening and your comments. You knock me for trying.
OK then m8. Give me one of your 400w LED lights with the Co2. I'll do a full thread and we will see what the outcome is. In fact sell me the stuff at trade price and I'll do a thread. Gauntlet has been flung down

i believe with the right bulbs etc.. you can get decent results.. but how do we KNOW you aren't using them cheap chips china bulbs

OK guys. I promise this is my last word on the subject today as I've probably worn you out on this.

The way I look at it is this. Yes OUR lights are fairly expensive. That's because they're good and we put the best technology in them.

I appreciate it's all difficult to understand. Companies who give direct comparisons off the cuff aren't giving you the whole picture. Your HID output in PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) will be a little (or a lot different) depending on your ballast (digital or magnetic), your bulb type and other factors. Your reflector is a crucial element. So you see there isn't an across the board answer. What I can tell you is this: Watt for Watt, with the correct quality light being used (utilising 3 bands minimum, Red, Blue, Orange, with two Blue and Red peaks being hit) and LED light will deliver FAR more PAR than an HPS. This is just fact. The majority of HPS and MH light delivered is to all intents outside the PAR range (the range of light that plants use to photosynthesise). A quality LED delivers nearly 100% efficiency at near 100% PAR. An HPS bulb converts a huge amount of the power it consumes into heat (your bulb is red hot). Only around 30-35% becomes light, and only a fraction of THIS light is PAR (therefore used by your plants). The maths is plain to see there.
Don't listen to suppliers who tell you to swap your 400W HPS for a 90W LED. This is not equivalent. HPS is very good, no doubt about it. It has superb penetration and broad spectrum light leaning towards the red end of the spectrum. However, a 300W or 400W LED will seriously outperform it.

I hope this helps you
it helps slightly thank you, out of interest have you done a side by side grow? i.e. one of your LED`s next to the equivalent HPS? as a lot of people want pictures of a side by side so they can really see the practical comparison, and it seems every LED company thats been trying to sell their wares on here, when asked to just simply grab a tent, split it in half HPS in one side, LED in the other and perform an honest side by side grow has either refused or just changed the subject.

Also whats the canopy pentration like compared to the equivalent HPS? as a lot of people on here grow bigger plants and thats as much an issue for them as PAR an all that other crap no-one really understands
