Best price I can get to the UK is £439 each for the 1200s and then they will mark the item value lower to pay less import duty?? I still think that £1350 is a bit excessive for just 3 LED lights lol but maybe convinced in time while I save up.
As regards duty I've bought two of these mars 2 900w lights from china wont say the name but only one place sells them on ebay. Both arrived in three days by fedex first one there was no duty second one there was. The duty plus handling charge on the second light was £29 as the seller put the item value down as only £80.
Personally I wouln'd buy an led light less than 600W unless just for vegging. I prefer the 900W ones close to the tops you can touch the glass on them. The new ones are now square and have excellent coverage and penetration. If you go for the 1200 even better good thing about the lights is they have exactly the correct spectrum the plants need for growing some blue but mostly red spectrum. I find they grow healthier in veg and flower.
There even supposedly a 3 year warranty on all parts which are surprisingly easy to change once you look into it. Will post some pics up off current grow and some different led lights.

I have just broke the bank to order 3 of the 1200s so I really do hope they dont let me down as this is a big jump. I will give a report once I have recieved and hung them and stick up a few pics.
i wanna see this dank
keep us posted also do you have one of those meters that shows you what the appliance is using?
peace
Lol so did I want to see this first, but as I am an inpatient barsteward then they got the better of me. Oh well sometimes you need to take risks in life to acheive results, and I like the thought of reduced power costsno ballasts needed and lower temps. If this works by next year we will be millionares Rodders
No mate dont have a meter.
Ok Rollit I have just bought one of these lol
