I'm currently running a lumi 400 but could use a 600 during winter and am thinking of grabbing a 600 dimmable. Of course from my research I've heard people say their not sure about the performance of dimmables operating in the lower settings in regards to lumen output, color temp, etc, etc.
.
If I went that route, its very likely ild be running it in 400w mode with a 400w bulb all summer, and switching to a 600w bulb for winter.
Have any of you who have run a dimmable 600... in 400w mode for a full flowering cycle noticed any issues? Any difference in results seen over a standard 400?
Any first hand experiences would be great. Im not really looking to run a 600w bulb dimmed to 400 mode ... but rather looking to swap bulbs I.e. 400w bulb when in 400w mode/600w bulb in 600w mode. I'm flowering in a 3x3 space.
Any suggestions?
