Dont mess with that one....it's a joke. Those are nothing more than LED christmas lights spaced 1" apart and they put out sh*t for light. Not to bash LED xmas lights though. I made a panel for a buddy that has 1400 lights (ratio-ed 5 blue to one white) spaced 1/2" apart and it works great for the first month of veg.

ok. if that won was shitty could you post a link to a led panel that runs off less then 200 watts thats less then 100$.

how many watts of led would i need to equal the same amount of output my 150 watt cfl has? by output i dont mean like watts i mean its growing capabilitys.

i think that what you`re looking for is rather lumens and light temperature rather than wattage

If your trying to spend under 100$ your better off just adding more CFL's. Also, if you do indeed want an LED I would recommend the UFO versions. The girls love it.... Beware of eBay UFO's. If you do buy one, make sure the seller is located in the US and not in China. HTGSupply.com has alot of great products.

ok, what if money wasn't a problem..... would 150 watts of led grow plants as good as 150 watts of cfl???

No, but what you're looking for is a rig that uses 1 watt leds. And no offense, man...wasn't trying to piss you off, but my buddy got ebay crazy and ordered a ton of led grow lights a while back. He ordered several different UFOs and several panels. That thing you posted a pic of is EXACTLY one of the panels he got and believe me, I'm saving you an asston of heartache. It's extremely reminiscent of a light bright.

Pretty much all UFO's are made in China. Even Cammies light is made in China if I remember right. What Irishboy is using seems to be alright but he is not finished yet with testing. The light I am using is doing good also and it is made in Texas. Goto G2led.com talk with tim. I would not buy until you see some of the threads finish out completly. Just my input.
