very interesting about the inverse square law and LED's - your post makes good sense to me sx - thanks

OK, so they are not a point source light.
That would explain why LEDGirl's test numbers stray from the inverse square law.
That is cool.
I didn't see that info on your web site.
Pretty sneaky for LEDGirl to pretend she doesn't know who you are...

Either your lights are operating at better than 100% electrical efficiency (impossible) or the manufacturer of your LEDs has not stated the output or power use correctly especially when you factor in the power used by the fans and the LED driver.
Nice website.
Have you seen the spectrum chart from Greenpinelane shown below?
It shows more of the plants life processes and that there are more wavelengths used than most people think.
Can you show a spectrum chart that your lights produce?
Phycoerythrin and Phycocyanin, are two compounds found in algae (not marijuana). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phycocyanin
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phycoerythrin
So yes, that graph does contain more processes, but not for MJ. someone pointed that out to me a long time ago
As far as the power consumption is concerned, our LED's operate at 700mA to my knowledge, yet our units draw 1.0 amps. I know our power supplies are certainly not 100% efficient, therefore if they are 90% efficient, our 126 x 1W LED's would emit about 113W, with the remainder being used by the fans. So no, our units are not operating at better than 100% efficiency. To me, this speaks volumes for the amount of light that is being produced and what it is capable of.

Well it looks like leds are more powerful than I thought great pics ledgirl nice report. Really kinda sums things up. But it looks like you have tons of led coverage witch requires alot of space and not up to stealth standards in my book. Shit atleast if my neighbor peeked through my window he would think theres a dam disco going on instead of a grow just kidding keep up the work of led research peace
According to the US Department of Energy, the average cost per kwH is about 10.7 cents. The 126W draws 126W, so running it 12 hours, would be 1512W per day, or 1.512kwh, or 45.36kwH per month. The cost would be about $4.85 for electricity per month.

I understand how frustrated a lot of people are making you, actually i'm sure thats an understatement. I would probably of taken down my grow log by now because i'd be so annoyed. However you answering questions increasingly in a very agressive tone doesn't really do anything for your business, it paints a very unprofessional picture. Just ignore the people trying to slam your product, if the results are there then they'll be there and everyone will be happy. The harsh critics will still nitpick even if your lights grow the best bud in the world, that's something all companies/brands/etc have to deal with, competition and disbelief. Not everyone is going to agree with your claims, but the best you can do it is keep on doing what you do.
It's amazing that you're providing all this data to counter every counter-claim, but in my opinion it's making you look just as childish as everyone flaming your lights. What i'm basically saying is there is a reason CEOs and execs from microsoft don't troll message boards arguing with their costumers.
With that said i definitely respect what you're doing for the culture, but relax a little bit and enjoy the ride!

your kidding me??? 4.85!!!!!! thats ridiculous can you also veg under this with good results??? these leds = 400w mh or hps???? wow I need to get me some of this lights!!!! I grow 2-4 plants per 1000w hps with amazing results... but i moved to a new place and i didn't want to buy an extra air conditioner so LEDS came to mind... what would be the right amounts of plants this thing can finish up??? thank you LEDGirl nice photos btw keep it real

any more pics ledgirl?

Just in case you suck at...
Anything close to 1 gram is really great..close to 2 is amazing, I would be interested to know the dry gram per watt though
Also a clearer pic here would have been AWESOME! The closet to the right of the plant is in focus, not the plant. Probably because they where trying to get too close to the plant for detail and the cam focused on the hydrogen peroxide etc in the closet
...Im defintily going to get one of those penetrators soon to add to my cab, cause it looks like it kicks ass and grows MAD amounts of vegetation!
Grow On!

So what happened to my post, it was stating factual information with a legitimate question, it was not a troll or flame post as I stated yet it has been deleted? 
Edit:
Rant at LEDgirl deleted as it was a mod that deleted my post instead of moving it and posting a link with explanation as is usually done on forums to avoid this sort of thing happening.

perhaps even some dried fruit

These lights work fantastic for veg. If you want to see a demonstration, go to our forum and look at the 126W vs 180W competition hosted by IrishBoy. Anyhow, depending on how your garden is arranged, I would use 3 x 126W units to replace a 1000W light, but if you need to fill a 4' x 4' area, using 4 panels would give you the most even spread of intensity.
