just something that makes me curious lately,
why does all thoes led retailers/lamps' manufactueres put all these high prices to their products ?
i mean - take a look at this http://www.dutch-passion.nl/en/cannabis-seeds/product/led-grow-light/
it's a 190-210w lamp with 'epistar' and 'epidled' chips, tiwanian/chinese cheap leds, maybe not that bad, but definatly not better than americans bridgelux for example (m i right?).
price is -330 euros [about 460 us dollars].
now - theres nothing special really about that lamp, no digital light control, dimmer or anything, just a bunch of leds mounted into a heatsink and power to make a lamp.
now most lamps i saw at the last 3-4 months were pretty much like this one -
price is high,
nothing special except a bunch of leds+heatsing+power+fans.
leds themselfs might vary - usually it's either bridgelux or chinese, sometimes cree or phillips.
while all that time, theres one ebay store (actually there was 2 or 3 but they are closed), a chinese company that uses 'bridgelux' leds and like all the others - only assambles them onto a heatsink with fans and power, but the real issue is the price -
their price for a 180w lamp is about 115 us dollars, http://www.ebay.com/itm/JoyHydroGro...Seed_Starting_Hydroponics&hash=item19e1aeb8ea
a 300w lamp would be about 160-165 us dollars (while actually at an ebay auction you could get it a little cheaper), http://www.ebay.com/itm/JoyHydroGro...1598049?pt=US_Hydroponics&hash=item1c3663dae1
now this thing is kinda bugging me,
i mean - why are they the only ones that doesnt afraid of low prices ?
it looks like they are barely making any profit,
but why does everybody else go skyrocketing with their prices, while their lamps are all pretty much the same ?
not to mention the free worldwide shipping
edit -
an oh yea -
probably the best featur of theirs - they can custoumise your led's colors
