l.e.ds vs hps

I'm not a huge fan of it. I could give a rats ass. I'm just getting sick of the retarded arguments.

You know what? I use HPS.. there. My HPS penetrates now.

I don't care if you're a fan of it. Good for you. HPS light doesn't penetrate better than "LED" light. That doesn't even make sense. Light is light. More light penetrates better. My lamp, which happens to use LEDS, generates more light power per dissipated watt, thus 400W of my lamp will penetrate better than 400W of HPS. Penetration is bullshit to begin with.
edit your post enough times? Four? On one post? Ok, worried about something?

A lot of "400" watt leds dont do what a 400 watt hps does. Maybe yours does but if you bought a bunch of 400 watt leds they would all have different results wouldnt you? And why is penetration bullshit. Do you like having lime premature buds from no light? No light equals pale buds. Those are ugly and fluffy usually.

If a lot of other people were jumping off a bridge, would you do that too?? Preschool anyone???

And no offence but you talk alot of shit usually so im betting this comes with no proof.

no i don't. You have me confused with some one else. I tend to take the zen approach when people talk shit to me. I have never once trolled on this thread

Assuming equal efficiency, 1x 1000W lamp will not light lower buds better than 2x 500W lamps. It's simply not true.
Thats saying that your assuming equal efficiency. Don't most leds pull less actual watts than the manufacturer states? Ive seen a lot of that.

As if I lied to myself about the operating point my diodes were running at. Please look at the datasheet for any of these cobs and find a chart called the characteristic curve. That's all I have to say.... o_O

I told myself it was 240W... it was actually 50W.........

a 1000w is roughly 30% efficient. Led is about 40% - 50% efficient. If hps was a 100% efficient they wouldn't produce any heat

Dude your talking in riddles, and talking about treasure maps. I sont know what the fuck your saying.....just saying....

No seriously, how could you possibly think the designer of a lamp doesn't know what current it's drawing and what voltage it's dropping... How does one even design these lamps... hmm. This just sounds dumb.
