I joint op I think what you are thinking of when they say lens blocking the light are those company's that use those thick plexi windows over there LEDs.
I think lush's as well as a few other company's design it acts more like a magnifying glass for the led. I mean lush correct me if I am wrong but I think that's how they are supposed to work?
The only company's I have been looking at because they seem to produce results is lumigrow or lush. I am not to sure about some of the other company's like black dog or those magnum lights those units seem really outdated and think u can buy them in Chinese knockoffs for 3x less the price and they even use the 5w diodes probably turned down ofcourse but hey you are saving three times the money blackdog wants so you can buy 2 extra Chinese panels to make up for less intensity and cover more area.
.
i wouldnt say only lumi or lush produce thats 100% false. all of these lights will grow an produce. the main thing is what light produces more par and quality of light. if u see others not producing well that usually is due to other reasons. i cant tell you how many people ive seen not have a clue on how to grow, people would rather have shit handed to them vs learn it.
all leds are turned down so lets keep fair comparisons. if you dont know then dont spread misinformation its why this area is a clusterfuck already. what is the outdated stuff on the blackdog? just curious to your thoughts on that.
i havent had a chance to test the mars II but i really want to might bite the bullet an see. i want 5w or cobs personally but its a large drawback if they dont have potentiometers, hell even some cheap leds i got years ago have them, imo its cutting corners. once u have that ability you will not want another without it.
