Blackstar or ZA series cidly?

Edit: I have narrowed it down to an apollo 6 but wanted to hear any feedback from anyone, Price shipped is about $230 from cidly, the manufacturer.

The other option is a solarflare 100 w with the 5 w diodes from california lights which have good reviews. For around the same price, would you take a 270 watt which comes to around 200 watts or the 100 watt from CL?

The CLW is only 85 watts.
I'd want to know more about the spectrum of the Cidly before pulling the trigger on it.
What kind of space are you working with?

2x3 so not very large but I was wantign to focus the HID on 2-3 plants while the LEd covers atleast one more or side lighting.

Here is the spectrum recommended which can be changed of course.
660nm:630nm:610nm:460nm:6500K=5:4:2:2:2.

Send a letter to area51 and tell them chico sent you.. Tell them what you have to spend and ask if they have anything in the back for you.
