Wow. So I ordered it on Thursday and got my sonofarm light today in the mail. High quality parts, shipped well and fast, and there is a thank you note with my name on it in the package. If anyone is looking for quality lights at a decent price with a U.S. based small business, I would head over to Sonofarm.com. They are having a sale right now and are doing free shipping. This is definitely a plug lmao. But I am really happy with how it worked out.

I looked at their website and it looks pretty decent in terms of price, build, and shipping. I already ordered some ecofarm boards that arrive today so I'll be interested to see how they compare.

The ones I bought were two 240w and they ran ~185 apiece with shipping. They're also lm301b, but they're all in 3000k and not a mix of 3000k & 5000k. It looks like the sonofarm boards only have 208 white diodes per board plus the 10 supplemental diodes, so their 4000 series is 832 whites and probably 4 IR / 4 deep red /12 near red.

The spec sheet for the ecofarm boards says the equivalent 480w setup for the ecofarm is 904 3000k white lm301b chips, 152 near reds, 4 uv, and 4 IR

I stumbled upon them looking for a decent light on amazon. I saw that brand pop up, even tho if you search for sonofarm it doesnt come up, and the specs and price caught my eye. Come to find out it's a u.s. based small business so I've kind of taken it upon myself to help spread the word. The light is just nice and solid. The only con I've found so far is that it came with only one metal ratchet strap. Annoying but not a deal breaker.

So I got the ecofarm lights on Monday. They don't match the spec sheet but they're extremely bright and seem well made. They do have a mix of 3000k and some kind of (5000k?) cool white, plus a row of 8 reds, 2 IR, and 2 UV. At ~ $190 a piece with a meanwell driver, and a ridged aluminum heatsink on the back that has been sufficient to run them for 18 hours at a time.

They also threw in a 216w LED light (216 1-watt pieces). I initially thought it was a cheap blurple but it actually looks okay. It's like a modern version of the blurple lights with SMDs instead of those bubble shaped LEDs, that replaces the red with mostly warm whites and some reds, and the blues with cool whites.

No problem. I own two now myself. Tomorrow morning I'm picking up some soil, then I'll try and see if I can fit two inside of an 4x4 tent....
Yes they will fit with a couple inches of clearance between them. 2 qb2000's would be perfect for a 3 x 5 tent.

And what are the cheapest with the super diodes? (Samsung)
A lot of the cheap ones even say "samsung" diodes or "lm301b" in their descriptions, but I can't be confident about that. On the boards I've seen (other than samsung branded boards) I don't know how to tell the manufacturer of the diodes.
