The more I spend time in the section the more I think Im going crazy....

I know Im done with HPS... I can get the smoke I want with less power and piss farting around with heat exchange... but before i lay out serious cashola I want it to be close to the right one as possible...

Im failry open minded when it comes to what to buy.. I take my advice from those who have gone before me with LED but it does my head in sometimes with the options..

Damn, I don't know about that light or company in particular, but I am really digging the idea of the built in flexible spotlights. Nice space saving and convenient way to get some extra light to where ever you want to. What would be nice is if the arms were stretchable or retractable. Curious to know how much light the spotlights put out. I used to debate on doing this around my tent with some kessil's and goosenecks.

For me I'd stick with whats already been proven to grow plants very well for the most part. Making disappointing investments suck... I've done that quite a few times myself. There's really only 4 companies I'd deal with. a51, apache, hans, inda gro. The only companies doing cobs are the china direct, no quality control companies... Now if you want to do diy cobs then thats a whole different story. Then you can build a quality light. If anything fucks up that's on you and not some shady company over sea's. It would be easier to trouble shoot problems when its your own build..

Not exactly the 'LED' attitude i adhere too....theres so much more to find out in my opinion....
Right now all the companies that make panels with cobs are already known for making shitty lights that don't last or perform any where near the others.. All these rebrand companies keep popping up and they are all cidly or eshine or lg.. I bet that one is most likely eshine... Not one new light or company can step to those I posted ^. I forgot to add illumitex to that list too... the build of all these lights is horrible too. loose wiring everywhere, internal heat issues, failing leds...etc... Not one of these companies is as transparent as the top ones...

I'm not saying it won't have good results.. it will take more watts and not last

Where someone hears snares, another person hears a bass. March on drummer boys


I could see cob tentacles actually making a big difference for a panel like that.

im not saying i love them,its just experiment,but i am really happy so far,by no way would i compare them to hps or mh, but i live in a place that keeps track of my electic,motorhome,about 5 ac
if i could use 600 watt hps id be all over it,lol.
and they are super cheap to runn,my buds ant like hps or out door,in size,but they look dame frosty for a 40 dollar led i tossed togrther,along with t5s,got them free
