I purchased this light not that long ago and I am very curious to how much the yield is for a plant

If it’s the standard VIPERSPECTRA 300w then it’s actually only around 136w of actual draw.

Depending upon your skill level you should be able to pull a few ounces off it.

But be warned VIPERSPECTRA leds are not the greatest lights.

Why isn’t it the greatest?

Actually ?
"About a pound" is the default standard response to all questions regarding yield here on RIU, because yield isn't something that can be guessed accurately. There are too many variables to calculcate, including an immearurable one... the capabilities of the grower.

@bk78 beat me to it this time :)

I work from home with four monitors set up, so I usually have one open to RIU and other forums I frequent for most of the day.

However, you caught me mid-harvest of two plants so I missed it LOL

I have two of these and would not try to use them to flower out plants by themselves unless I had no other choice. The spectrum of my viparspectra 300w is adequate for blooming though; I use them as side light and must say works very well to finish ripening bud. These are good for vegging small plants too. Hard to say what the yield could be because they don’t penetrate much deeper than the top few inches of canopy. Keep them short; if you want a decent yield train em out on a net.
