Peeps suggesting diy on mains electrical items to someine who seems really unconfident....

If someone dies from electrical fault will you still recommending diy electrics to the unweary.

Op - buy a ready made unless you are confident at electrics and also check your insurance covers such endeavours as the parts wont upon fire :-)

Rico let me know what you go with. I have family that can easily wire up and manufacture a frame/heat sink if needed. So I am fortunate that way. I just want to get the proper equipment ordered the first time as well not break the bank. Again and again.
So yes I am learning from all the input as well here. Good question.
Currently running a 5x5 tent with 1000w hps in one room and dbl that in another. Temps are starting to creep up now that spring is in the air.

Lol it is not weak for a 4x4. You'll probably have to dim it most of the time. I know this isn't the best way to calculate light but 500 watts of some of the most efficient lighting is more than enough

After looking at the luma b4 I personally would of passed. I can’t really find a lot of third party reviews to back up thier product. I’m not led guru like many here so spread sheets only do so much for me. After hours and hours of reading reviews and grow journals I went with timber and think my plants will like my choice.
