Did you plan from the start to have 28 lights or were you just lucky the extra 10 fit perfectly?
Awesome pics you're showing us!

How did you configure the wiring for that many lights? Would love to see the wiring diagram.
Why not upgrade to the 14.5w 100w equivalent bulbs?

It's nothing special, I have a picture on page 1 with the 18 bulbs wired in. They are just daisy chained together. As for the 14w bulbs I don't want a mix of 10/14w bulbs and didn't want to buy all new 14w ones, they put off more heat to I assume and I would need to play with light height again

I did! I had 1 Eleanor seed and a few M1s that we sprouted, I gave the M1s away except for 1 and from what I'm told they are doing great under a vivosun 600w led. The M1 I had is doing good too but I have others that look sooooo much better! Lol speaking of better... Eleanor, oh man she is looking just beautiful!! Big glorious crystalized buds with a great scent

Harvest soon I think, except for one as she is taking her sweet ass time lol
 
This is an awesome thread!

A good friend of mine uses a big LED unit, and his last grow wasn't good at all... He said he didn't realize until the end that a lot of his diodes were dead... This set-up you use looks like it'd be much easier to spot if a bulb is gone, and it looks easy enough to swap it out -just unscrew it!

What kind of ventilation are you running?

I'd love to set a box up with even HALF the amount of bulbs you used just to do one or two plants.

I'm thinking that this winter will find me getting one set up finally.

Def following!
