To do a 2.5 x 5 right, you need 512.5w of the best LED diodes/Samsung/Osram.
I simply go by Gavitas guideline.
Their 1700e = 40.3w sq/ft, and is made to replace a 1000w HID in a 4 x 4 area.
HID needs 62.5w sq/ft
2.5 x 5=12.5 x 41w = 512.5w

Care to share a list. I did a quick google search. Found lots of Toyota,Lexus,Honda,chevy on lists.
It’s subjective. Google “best Led grow light”. You will find a bunch of crap Chinese lights that you have bashed on this forum.
Ford PU hard on fuel gets the job done. Exactly like HID

Yup, and it guzzles gas to the same job done as it's modern, more reliable equivalent. Just like HID.
Kia's reliability has gone drastically up since their earlier offerings, and yeah, now they rank near the top in terms of reliability. And I'm saying this as an owner of a Honda and a Ford.

A quick look at JD Powers 2020 list ranks them above Honda, Acura, and Nissan. But yeah, Toyota, Lexus, and Ford all rank higher.
But.more importantly, how tf is Buick ranked 3rd???

Show me where I fanboyed a car I've never owned. I drive a Raptor.
Why am I not surprised that you posted a pic of a Kia from the 90s, when I was discussing their 2020 offerings? It's like posting a pic of a 15yo blurple ufo and going "see, I told you LED sucks".

I was a used car recon manager for 10. You're preaching to the choir. As a mechanic, you should know that Kias have improved dramatically in the past decade. From the designers they've hired to the ridiculous amount of money they've put into upping their game.

exaclty. Johnny's KIA will be lucky to hit 100K without duct tape and bailing wire holding it together. 100 bucks says his Honda is a minivan. LOL

How does that make me a Kia fanboy, a car I've never owned and never intend to?
I guess in your world, discussing stats and facts equates to being a fanboy. Try pulling your head out of your ass.

You're stuck on stupid. My Honda is an Acura. You owe somebody a hundred bucks.

Well I certainly wouldn't compare the Spiderfarmer to a kia lol
Hid is more like a Ford model T
And the spiderfarmer is a 1500 pickup lol
For example, for me, my Spiderfarmer is replacing my $200 1000w HID light that cost me $850 a year to run with all the needed extra ventilation. Plus atleast $100 a year in bulbs that need to be replaced.
My $570 SF4000 replaces that, using only
$370 a year
Thats pretty easy math, thats $580 in savings, in one year, more than it costs to buy my LED, brand new, all over again for free

Are you absolutely nuts? He does not need 512.5w of LED for that tiny closet! He doesn't even have CO2!
I am running almost that exact w/ft in my 4x4 (650w), but I have everything dialed in, including CO2 and RDWC.
I'm getting an average of probably 1200 ppfd spread (1800 at the center) probably 500-700 more than plants can handle with out co2 enrichment
That much light would be a waste of electricity for a closet grower

If he plans to use the light to cover 12.5 Sq/Ft he needs 512w. 781w of HID. 12.5 2.5 x 5 is same as 3.5 x 3.5
A 1000w HID is good for only 4 x 4. 16 sq/ft. Hes got 12.5 sq/ft. And to equal HID in the same area. Simple math.

I think you are severely under estimating LEDS
That amount of light is only needed if you want to maximize CO2
Without an enriched environment, its much closer to 30 w/sq ft when you have high end LEDs to maximize your space

Look for ppfd charts, not watts per square foot.
