Wire transfer.....i was very "wise" enough to pay my hard-earned pennies. They don't accept paypal.

seems like there is some DIY in your future.

Yes, definitely.

You learned a lesson. Never make a wire transfer to China. They never want to give your money back. You're lucky you received a light at all. Hope it works out for you. I've considered the LED, but I'm going to give them a couple more years to work all the kinks out.

I finished my clones under this crappy lamp during the weekend after having learnt there is no any chance to get their warranty.
25x7gallon square pots.
8 blue berries, 10 pineapples(the two row at the middle of the room), 7 snowstorms from three different mother plants.
Tem 81 degree, RH 53-62%, still feeding plain water.
Now my only expectation is that it can run a whole clone journal in order to i can have a harvest. Of course, the lamp doesn't cover the room completely, i have one 45W LED panel and a 45x3W UFO, but i am not going to run them in the same room as i would like to know what this 540W 288x3 shit can offer.

Yes, I learnt something from this "GREAT" lesson. If i can finish my journal, i can save enough money to get a high quality LED for my next grow.
