bassy, i wouldnt worry too much, SX has a lot of knowledge of LED's for sure, but from what i see he also has a fanatical hatred of ALL commercial LED manufacturers who he thinks are just in it for a fast buck. so he thinks all lamps are junk unless you made it yourself.
you wait till you smoke some of that weed, you might be pleasantly surprised. i agree it can be annoying when a product isnt quite what the manufacturer claims, but now you know its a 400w light you can at least judge it accordingly

Here's current pics 7 days into 12/12 with about 400w of cfl supplemental light in corners. Four plants in 4x4.
