Has Anyone Tried These New Type LED Bulbs?

I have noticed a slight evolution in LED's over past year which now include bulb in pic.

This particular one is 54w but they look so much more intense than the older ones. I gave up on LED's having previously tried them using multiple square LED panels of the previous generation LED's ie the smaller ones, and was totally unimpressed with the very weakly low yield plants they produced.

Has anyone tried them? I was thinking of doing an HPS v's these LED's comparison test in ebb and flow rockwool system!

Would prob go for one bulb per plant in a tray (one long tray) which would equate to 162w for the x3 plants !


There good but need 2 to 3 per Sq.Ft. 3 to 5 inches from plant tops

I guess in a ideal world you'd want x2 set ups. One low heat system for summer and one that gives off more heat in winter, both with similar end yields!!!
No reason for the lower efficiency version in that case, far cheaper to buy a $20 heater. More the case of if you only grow inside during the fall/winter/spring. In this climate some/many/maybe most people switch to outdoor for summer.

I don't try to grow inside when it's 90f and 80RH outside. Not worth it.

Looks cool.. I would jus use it as supplement lighting.. Def something I'm interested in now, cause I jus can't get into the whole led system so these screw ins would work for me
