I did what I said I would do. I designed a light that pushes a minimum of 2.85 umol/W. What the means is that there will be a light on the market that is 600W that really is a 1:1 replacement for a DE HPS. All the details are on IndieGoGo. Please let me know what you all think. If I can get the...

What is your normal budget for lights? Does it depend on the quality or the wattage? Maybe both? For me its always been something under a grand that preforms well, but how about everyone else?

Soo been out there doing my thing and haven't been keeping up with LED Tech. Anyone have some info on what the best out for the price currently or knowledge of anything that might be coming out in the future? Last I knew of the CXB 3590 DD 3500k was not quite out mainstream yet, but I'm sure...

So I assume that you might be interested in this...Since you clicked on the link and all. So for the past 6 months I was using the GUNBOT (you can find it on BTC Forum) I was able to make 5% a day with this bot when it was turned on and started with $400 and now I'm at $1,600. I took all that...

Hey does any one here have these? If so where did you get them? If you know someone thats selling some Im interested as its time to buy more lights. :)

If you have a request post the spectral waves and Ill crunch the numbers. So far Ive only ran the CXB 3590 3000K 90 CRI and the Luminous Generation 3 CXM-22 3000K 90 CRI as its been shown that 90 CRI produces good results (Thanks @Rahz ) I started here to see which of these would be the better...

check out crash course. It's pretty legit. Here's one on photons and other physics.

Fans on Amazon and is Prime Eligible (2 day shipping) isnt a bad option if you need a lot of them. Specs are on the website. Easy to build but make sure you check the print on the power cord so you don't mix them up, otherwise you will be needing a new fan. The fan is called the Blizzard 8"...

Not much is known but it has more red and blue than the cree 3590 3500K. Its about $50, but its also 275W instead of 137W, if anyone had under driven them to around 100W or so I would love to see the numbers on that. that would make it around the same cost, a bit less of a spread but if it...

Anyone know of the performance decrease of Lens? compared to no optics? Also looking for a light spread of them if anyone knows of a thread. Looking to find the Par difference and see if I can run the lights higher.

I'm looking for some Vero29C 2700k 90CRIs and I've not seen them anywhere. Can someone point me in the right direction because I'm just not quite sure where to find them. Thanks in advance

Im not talking about that one guy on YouTube said, but what have you personally gotten from switching to cobs? G/w or how ever you measured your area. I've seen between 1-1.4, but I'm still in veg with my first light. I've also heard of a 35%Efficient is about 1g/w. So if you're running 60%...

took forever but here's the (almost) finished product. It took about 3 hours to make. Parts: 1 4x8 1/2" plywood $12 Free cuts at Lowes. 3 52Lb Activated carbon $150( I didn't use all of one, and honestly this could be smaller) Circular saw, or saber saw $25 Screen for a screen door $20 4'xwhat...

Ive seen a few and I know it almost seems as hard as getting into DIY lights but its just as simplistic. If you are interested I have a sample available with some a few options that you can do. The first is to hook up everything and let the radiator sit in with your reservoir so that it can be...

I thought that I would put together a light that was cheap AF and put down the photons. and the details are all here. I know if you were to use this in flower it wouldnt have the reds that a flowering plant craves... So what are some solid options to help finish out this light? Ive seen a few...

The title says it all, Ive been mixing and matching with the LED calculator and this is where I think Ill really be happy I would settle with 500W at the wall but Im just trying to run the numbers. If its possible to get over 800PPFD I would be ecstatic. Thoughts on how to achieve this? Assume...

I was going to post this in my grow adventures however I feel that the info I have from today is a good start as I understand that not alot of people use light meters. I know its not the end all yet but it is the starting line. We have all heard that COBs can out preform any other light in the...

So Ive been following this guy on youtube for a while... In the last few recent months or year I can remember he has started to show his own grow light that hes made out of LEDs. He will not give me the make or model of them but swears it will out preform a Gavita. Now I know most people...

This is one of my update videos, not the best update... But for proof of concept... It works and cost me $110. Keeps the water cool.

So these clones were all put in at the same time roughly. So I have dropped the water level and brought it back up... The leaves were dry and so I brought the water level back up... That didn't seem to fix the issue with the other leafs, still droopy.. The water temp is 70F and the ppm is at 500...
