I don't know why but I am starting to get tired by so many 'revolutionary' LED lights ... :tumbleweed:

What the hack, they are just a bunch of LEDs, nothing else. Maybe I am to grumpy this morning, but seriously , the market is full of this kind of lights.

I'm waiting to see eventually a massive drop of prices or maybe some revolutionary proven technology, not the same old products with different names . :moon:

I have a few older pics, I will have to take some pics with new 180w UFO though. Say what you will, but my second largest plant yielded 80.3g under a 90w UFO. These are not the same as a cheap UFO lol.

I would like to see pics,

but unless it's a xm-l2 or a LED from an alien spaceship, I'm getting bored like everyone else.. I guess the novelty has worn off for some of us..

if you like it, great though, alot of people are seeming to be happy with LED

Ok, I just can't help myself.

Irony:
When we have 2 different led pimps, arguing over who's light is better.

Again,
Where are the datasheets?
What kind of drivers?
Both sites show extremely exaggerated coverage claims.
Both are extremely expensive for non-bin'd diodes.

The word charlatan comes to mind.

ive got 2 of his 300w panels on the way and i have a thread here already started for when they get in. they are at week 3 and 2 in flower under a bare bulb 300w hps at the moment. as soon as the LED's come in i will swap them in and get pics up. should be pulling around 360-380W as opposed to about 330 on the 300w hps.

i hope to break the 3/4 lb mark between my 6 ak clones and 4 test run plants from seed which are pot of gold, jackberry and chemmy jones

I haven't been able to take a pic with the new 180w in there yet, but here are some old ones. I have the tent configured differently now :peacock:

Nice combo of lighting. Well taken pics.

Your setup has lots of well distributed light. Well done!

I would imagine that all the plants benefit from having so many light sources.
Have you noticed any different growth characteristics/health, based on plant location?

Heyyy guys! Tanks for the comments! I was up to 670 watts of lighting in there when I had my HPS turned to 400 and the three 90w UFO's. Now with the new 180 im up to 850 watts, and even more wattage than before if I have my HPS turned down to 250w at a total of 700w lol! Wait til I get some pics up of the new Jumbo180w UFO. The spectrum is a little different then the smaller ones I already have in there, it is for use in conjunction with an HPS light. There isn't any blue in there. I tink the ones under the 90w UFO's do well, more frosty and tighter nugs are just some of the things I've noticed. I had my personal best under a 90w UFO at 80grams, I just recently had a Hempy Bucket under the HPS that weighed 94grams... Could have been because the strain is a good yielder and she was in a Hempy bucket though. Have a great day guyyys! Happy toKin!, ima light anudder one up for my B-Day today :woohoo: :laughing: :dance013: :tiphat:

actual running wattage versus listed are pretty different bobbo

put all that on a watt meter and you will odds are be pulling a bit under 600 give or take

I could be wrong but I think I am closer than realized

Med: Hmm, I thought an HPS usually pulls more watts than listed-and an LED a little less than listed...
10:30-Yes I think having the lights that way is the best. Better coverage than a single HPS or LED in the middle. I started with just LED, but it was kind of a pain to see the plants-deficiencies and whatnot.

I need to toss some quantums and other digis on my watt meter to see. I will assume you have, so 400,600,1k running wattage is higher than the listed including digis hmmn interesting. I have gotsta check that out and see what mine clock in at and what difference each might have.

On the deficiencies, I have seen plenty on certain strains and others seem to run great. That is something I am looking into as far as certain phenos being better to run under leds than others.

Now on the different "white" light that is always being talked about here, it is said to fix deficiencies but I haven't tested white diode panels yet to come to my own conclusion as of yet.

I would also like to see how a panel made up of the different whites grows a phenotype that doesn't express deficiencies while growing under the led spectrums and what it does under the whites.

interesting stuff for sure
