Screw in led
Literally household led bulbs with the globes removed. I got a couple splitters on amazon and turned them into effective grow lights. They're nice for seedlings or some supplemental lighting.

I haven't bought any eco farm boards in the past but it looks like their website is having a 20% off sale that could make some of their lights interesting. The boards use name brand parts (Samsung LM301H diodes, cheaper versions available with LM301B & LM281s; meanwell drivers, cree infared LEDs, LG UV LEDs).
For example:
www.growpackage.com
These are ($542.86 * 0.8 = $434.28 before shipping). Each of the four boards uses 252 samsung LM301H diodes in either 3000K or 3500K so you can choose a flowering or full-cycle spectrum, so that's 1008 total Samsung LM301H. Additionally each board has 4 LG 395 nm UV lights, 4 Cree 730 nm IR lights, and 12 Cree 660 nm far red lights for a total of 16 UV, 16 IR, and 48 far red diodes; 1088 total diodes on the board. The driver for that size is a meanwell HLG-480H-48B. Overall it seems like a good deal for a board with name-brand components and a lot of the lights considered "supplemental".
For comparison, a HLG 600 RSPEC (https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/collections/lamps/products/hlg-600-rspec) has four boards which each contain 288 diodes. 16 of those diodes are 660 nm "far red"/"deep red" LEDs, and the other 272 are Samsung LM301H diodes (unsure of color temperature). That means the whole HLG 600 RSPEC set has 272 * 4 = 1088 total samsung LM301H LEDs, and 64 "deep red" LEDs. That means the HLG board has 80 additional samsung LM301H diodes, 16 additional far red diodes, and costs over $200 more. The ecofarm board also comes with 16 of the 395 nm UV and 730 nm IR diodes which the HLG board does not have.
For example:
ECO Farm SAMSUNG LM301B+CREE 660nm+LG395 UV+CREE 730nm IR Dimmable Quantum Board
Eco Farm Samsung LM301H+CREE 660NM+LG395 UV+CREE 730NM IR With Dimmable Quantum Board LED Grow Light High efficiency white light.Quantum Boards White Light Full Spectrum for better results .Reliable passive cooled design, Perfect performance for veg and bloom Dimmable IR and UV is independently...

Theres conflicting info about power draw on the post for this. The description says 320w, but in the Q&A area the seller says there are two models, one with 520w and the other with 280w.

Not surprised you can't trust a lot these people they just say what they think sells a unit...

No best price but I bought two VP Racing brand gas cans. 3 gallon. White.
Now I can throw away my old 2.5 gallon mixing jugs that originally had kitty litter in them. The sides would swell when filled up with fert solution. Started to get difficult measuring water by a Sharpie line. Marked on the side.

Yeah after doing some looking I'll have to pass on that light. Something doesnt feel right after reading reviews and info they provided. Thank you tho.

That does seem pretty well priced. One thing to consider is that the fans will always take some watts, even tho they dont specifiy. That's one on the main reason old school blurples are not nearly as efficient as newer lights.
