Best quality affordable LED grow lights?

Hi growers,

I'm thinking of investing in an LED grow light (ideally a cob LED for full spectrum, with settings for veg and bloom). Im looking for something in the $100ish range since I'm not growing a lot of plants, just 2 or 3 at a time, so something small would work. Does anyone have experience with a light like this? Or do you have any recommendations/links for me? Ideally, I'm looking to buy off amazon for convenience. Thanks!

Affordable is a fairly general term. Budget usually equals poor or lower quality. I think lights are one of the most important parts of your overall grow. I consider HLG excellent quality and affordable especially the kits. For $100 you are pretty limited. Something like a Mars Hydro TS1000 would prob be ok for 1 or 2 plants if they didn't get too big, but something for 3-4 is tough with a $100 light. I think if you are going to spend months caring for and pampering a couple plants, why not use a decent light and be rewarded with the best quality and yield harvest you can?

I guess what I was trying to say is that I know there are high quality lights on the market, but just at a smaller size which would fit my needs. But I will certainly take your advice because after all, I am here for constructive criticism and advice. So thank you!

Research research research, check MiGro on YouTube a good review on a vivarspectra I think, even think of Chinese ripoffs, or the best yet DIY.
