Should be cool to watchthanks
Equipment Review
I wanted to give a short review of the equipment I am using, excluding the lights.
On a 5 Star Scale:
EZ-Clone 30: 4/5
I really like this thing! Its a lot better than a clone dome and there has been little to no wilting of the clones since I put them in there.
I rated a 4 star because the lid does not seat 100% and water will accumulate and a little will jump out ever once in a while.
Tents (Lighthouse Hydro 4x4x7): 5/5
These are my first tents, but I do have to say they were extremely easy to set up, and would have been a 1 man job aside from needing a second person to help lift the mylar up and over the frame. They have ports and pockets with removable mylar patches and came with a secondary mylar liner for the bottom.
I rated 5 star because if you consider the price, it's a steal of a deal.
Fans (Lighthouse Hydro 6" inline): 5/5
Fan-tastic.
I rated 5 star because they move air like nobodies business and haven't given any issues or reasons to complain at all.

Subbed - Ecstatic you've posted this experiment as I'm sure it will be incredibly interesting to watch. Way to set up a real scientific study brother. This board need more of this.
My money is on the GLH. That's the only brand of the three I've personally owned.
3w chipset leds and autoflowers. Wanna see 'em grow a 2 oz autoflower in less than 70 days? Check it - http://www.rollitup.org/grow-journal...ml#post5905411
Thanks hoss I appreciate it! Glad to have you following along.
What model did you have?

is that glh a 500
I had the 100w spectra UFO, actually just sold it along with my other ufos to my little sis. Running all Pro-Grows from Hydro Hut right now. Really liked the GLH it was a top shelf light, just love the switchable spectrum feature on the PG and already had 3 of those. Sold to add another. Wanted to have the whole room switchable on demand. Again, props on the study man. Very interesting.

@hoss - Right on! I want to look into those PG's.. maybe something to consider for the next test. I appreciate it again and am glad to have you along for the experiment.
I believe this may be what GLH are now referring to as the 500. I have an email into the owner and am expecting one back by Monday.Originally Posted by fartman
It is a little confusing from the text they have on their website because they go back and fourth between calling it a 300 and 500:
"The new website is under construction. The Spectra LED 300 is now the Spectra LED 500w new for 2011. All specs are the same including the use of 12 true wavelengths and 90 degree lens. The new Spectra LED 500w uses 252 high powered 3w chips and draws 500w of power. Ive upgraded the heat sink and drivers. If you have any further questions please e-mail [email protected] or use the 'contact us' page.
The Spectra-LED 300 (Actual Power Draw is 360 Watts) Light System with a 4.5' x 4.5' coverage area and 3' x 2.5' core saturation. Further, it's 80% more energy-efficient than Metal Halide or HPS lamps. This system, with its unique 12+ wavelength lighting, 3 watt/3 chip LED's at 90 degree viewing angle, they emit precise illumination that your plants are readily able to absorb. Eliminated stretching and tight inter-node spacing represent just a couple of the benefits of this system."

cus glh says theirs e actual draw but im starting to doubt that guy
I will definitely let you know what their response says as far as the model of this light, and I will be sure to clarify if their new light numbers are actual draw.
