    I want to know more about your bulb venture. I will likely be willing to put some money up for escrow. I'm wondering what kind of estimate you expect for the pricing of these 3 bulbs. Are we talking $10? $20? $100? Also, assuming you have all the money good to go in the escrow tomorrow - how...

    288 is certainly going to be a lot easier to obtain than 500. Do we have anyway of knowing what the spectrum of these 660 bulbs will look like? Is 660 going to be the only peak?

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Who was talking about using color painted bulbs? I'm assuming you realize that the reason the bulbs in this forum are distinctive colors has to do with the radiation emitted by the charged elements inside of them and not 'painted glass'

    You're absolutely right. I had not considered it, but it doesn't look like Carlt is using any method of canopy control, which could explain a lot.

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the 48'' t5 bulbs are 54watts each 54 X 8 = 432watts The badboy is using about 28% less watts than the 600w (Also, Carlt - do you have to use a more powerful fan/cooling system for your 600w fixture? If so, how many more watts does that consume than the...

    Thanks for the reply. I actually already have the bulbs in my possession and I'll be getting this thing going very soon. should I just say "fuck it" with the 454 and tell them to refund me for it? or does it seem like a worthwhile bulb to have in the long run?

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    I'm planning on getting a badboy any day now to start using this method. I'm wondering if anyone who has experience can tell me what type of heat I can expect from the ballast. My grow space is limited and its possible that the metal of the ballast could actually be touching wood. Does the...
