Apologies to you. I "assumed" you knew something I don't. Positive for you negative for me. May I try again? What do you see wrong with this light? Opinion would be appreciated. Thank you.
No worries. I do like that he puts them together in the US, and that the money is going to a good cause. I just personally think he's buying the cheaper Chinese knockoff boards and just putting them together here and selling them on EBay, and he can say Made in the USA because he actually built it here. I avoid the Chinese knockoffs, but that just me.

Beat waiting 2 months for parts and building in my book. Maxed my cobs out. Stepped up like the cheap bastard I am. Look legit from what I can source. Thanks.

Dude from what i've read it does seem pretty legit and much better buy than spiderfarmer. That would be tempting for me if i went down that rabbit hole. There's some talented people that just dont have a big company to back them up.

I’ve been looking at the scynce raging kush (mostly because you can hang at low height and I’m working with height issues) anybody here who can tell me if it’s worth blowing a grand on? Newbie here.

The raw specs arent that impressive. The price seems to stem from features with app integration. I'd pass unless it's something you think you will absolutely need and cant get else-wear.

I would've spent a little more and got HLG. The real HLG 320 is only $437 after the coupon code.

Yeah thats not to much of a difference. I thought it would have been a lot more. I'm using COB's so the quantum boards market im a little uncertain about.

Regardless each to their own. I'm sure hes gonna have some nice buds.

Wasn't aware. Was frustrated playing E-mail tag with Taiwan-Buktu. Ended the chaos.

would you mind explaining where it’s lacking? I’d be using it as a light specifically for flowering in a 4x4 tent.

Its not lacking at all. It's a great light. I just saying there are lights that will give you very similar results for less. The lights have some cool features.

If you have severe height restraints in a 4x4 tent than you may want to get that light. Because of the optics it has to give you even light at a low height. What is the total height of the grow environment?

Ah okay. well, my tent is 80” in height. Using dwc cuts out 15” of space with the buckets, then if I used a light like the HLG 600 or 550, and had to hang 24” + above the canopy, and 15” recommended below the roof of the tent, that only leaves me with 26 inches of actual plant height to work with. Which id like to be able to grow plants a little taller than that haha.
