Damn, these threads regarding lights always go south. I could give a damn about what light saves a watt, ppfd, blah blah blah... I've been using the same 4ft 4 bulb HO T5 for years. Works great for vegging, starting clones, seedlings, etc... Is there a better light for these purposes? Probably. Do I need to go out and buy it? No. I'm trying to grow weed not spend money and I'm doing a good job at it with a T5 and then flowering under a 600 watt HPS. It's old school but it works. This isn't rocket science it's growing a plant.

I am doing the same.
Really impressed with the low electricity cost since changing to Quantum boards.
All that light for sod all cost.
Less heat & no need to replace bulbs = all good

Personally I don't begrudge anyone for using whatever they like. Why should I care? I use what I use for good reason - efficiency, stealth, heat and headroom. Those are my primary concerns when I look at lighting, in that order. I suppose it's a niche that QBs fit very nicely. I don't expect someone else, growing under different circumstances and conditions, to believe my gear is the best (but damn son, those QBs are killer!).
