    Question Top 5 LED companies?

    Hi everyone. I have been reading these forums trying to get a grasp on who are the good led companies out there. Is there a resource anywhere that reviews or compares the various leds and companies thats sell them? What companies have good warranties? What companies have decent prices? Which company has the best overall light? I know this is going to be open to opinion, big time but does anyone have an idea of the 5 or so best led companies that have proven lights, warranties with great results? I'm hoping that after several replies I'll at least have an idea of a few companies to try and deal with. After a few top 5 replies there has got to be some emerging pattern on overal companies that people deal with? Thanks for any advice!

    Led Users Unite! post # 5394 siddartha2 has a link to a very comprehensive list made on another forum, he does bash CLW, which I don't agree with........................happy shopping

    Edit: If you wanna go with advanced led, wait another week they are releasing a brand new panel and it should be up on their site by then.......big upgrade!

    One of the major factors can be how much you are willing to spend, if you want the top 5 inexpensive lights or just the all around top 5 lights out there

    Here's my list of 5 companies I have either purchased from and would buy again, or that interests me enough to buy one of their products:
    -Advanced LED (owned)
    -Kessil (owned)
    -Apache Tech (owned but not fully tested)
    -California Lightworks (never owned but would buy)
    -Lumigrow (never owned but would buy)

    FERO (http://www.feroledlighting.com) has some of the best lights at very competitive prices, and 5 years warranty. So if you are in Canada they are up there in my opinion

    Thanks for the replies everyone.

    Just to clarify I'm just asking for personal opinions regarding your top 5 led companis that you trust, have tried or plan on trying that make better than average panels. basically any 5 led companies that you think are good regardless of price. If someone wants to list 5 of the most expensive companies then so be it but somehow I doubt price alone equates to better panels.

    I've only owned one panel but I replaced a 600 watt HPS with my lumigrow 330es. It actually grows better plants than the HID did. Its pricey though, I got it for around 1100. Other companies I would like to try are California Lightworks, Blackdog, Apache, and kessil. But when I upgrade my setup after my harvest next month, I think I'm just going to get another lumigrow. I know they work, so i'm not going to mess around until already have the desired wattage, then i can try something new.

    Also, lumigrow is now distributed by hydrofarm, so knowing they're backed by a large hydroponics supplier makes it a safer buy in my mind
