    Lumens to Directional Bulbs

    I know lumens are a big factor in how effective these kind of lights are. If a regular bulb & a directional bulb produced the exact same lumens, would there be a difference in them? Becuz directional(or flood) lights concentrate all their light in one specific area.. I have a nice little 3w and...

    LED - 1w Diodes vs 3w/5w Penetration Distance Above Canopy?

    I have been interested in this question I've been wondering for a while and I feel the need to post this and ask for opinions, but I have a 1000w LED light running with 200-1W diodes.
