new scorpion rspec 700w in australia only?

Total Head said:

there's an updated rspec with 700w and far red lighting that's currently only available in Australia, supposedly to be released elsewhere at a later time.

i can't find any info or news, but i have noticed the original rspec for as low as $809 now.

I'm looking to replace the 600w hps in my 4x4 with led for heat reasons and I've been eying the rspec. i was planning on doing it this week as my next flower cycle starts in a couple weeks.

the price is attractive but the sudden drop makes me wonder if there's better stuff just over the hill and if I should wait or just stfu and pull the trigger.

does anyone know about this? I'm guessing it will be in the $1200 range US if the aussie one is $1700. i can't understand why all the hush hush though and i have no idea when I'll be able to get my hands on it.

I dont understand why the blackbird is priced significantly lower than the rspec.
μmol/joule is higher with the blackbird, but ppf is lower..Dont those numbers usually move together?

IDK, the blackbird has a dead link to the lab report and the web page numbers for ppf and efficacy are different from those in the manual. It has a smaller footprint and is 17.5 pounds vs 31 for the scorpion. Different spectrum too.
