Never seen or heard of this one, looks interesting though for 1w led light.http://www.gurugrowlights.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=33&osCsid=78873d3ac186e0e1da0fd8513470f6e9
is this worth it? or can someone recommend me something more dankier'
This is more like it. I can personally vouche for advanced led products. My 3w extreme flower is amazing and my diamond series should be even better when I get it up next round.

Hey Silverthorn,
Here is a comic that represents exactly how I feel about finding a good LED grow light.
Here's the full comic: Why Finding a Good LED Grow Light is Worse than Eating Cardboard
Here's just a snip of the comic that mentions us over here at LED Users Unite. haha

Tough to say since I don't see too much technical info. Just guessing, but if the actual watt pull is what they say, it might perform between a 150hps and 250hps? But with less footprint probably. I wouldnt do much more than 1 full sized or two smaller plants under a ufo, or just use to veg.

Not many magnum users around here that I've seen. I like what I've seen, but there's also some questionable marketing tactics theyve been called out for using. But apparently they grow well, and supposed to be realeasing a new light soon too.

that panel that was posted at the bottom of the previous page was looked at by s1 who used to frequent this thread and was a very very smart man when it came to lights and how they worked and pros and cons to them fuck me for not remembering his name right now i feel bad as he gave me lots of info and was very helpful but he left this thread when it turned into a bickering war. Those magnums are supposed to work good everything i seen grown on em looks real nice, a bit pricey though for a panel when you could just get a blackstar that works just as good. That being said its a good panel but yea they got some questionable tactics with marketing and stuff like that but hey who doesnt thats sales.
FOR SALE: Black Star 240-watt lights. Very new. Used for only three months. In excellent condition in original packaging. Must sell because I am short selling my home. Lights worked excellently and are a good alternative to the costly HPS systems. If legitimately interested, please send me a private message. I am real and hope you are too.

1W diodes are more energy efficient then 3W diodes, but 3W diodes penetrate the canopy better then 1W diodes.
It's the "which came first, the chicken or the egg" debate of LED lighting.
My LED lights are 1W diodes, so I lollipop and top my plants accordingly to get the most out of said lights.
That's the true key to using LED's, adapting your grow style to accommodate their strengths to maximize your garden.

I know that the autos are not light schedule sensitive by who knows for sure. I found that dropping my BS 240 times from 12/12 to 11/13 each week all the way down to 9/15 forced my ladies to finish as the panel will just keep them growing almost like the sativa phenos you reed about. Just a thought that can do no harm.
Thats my chronic ryder thats been under a 240W black star for the past 2 weeks.. all the time before was just usin CFLS .. oh its already over the breeders 65 days around day 72 now

the difference always depends on the company you buy it from but ya distribution is the main flaw with ufo's and most companies make shitty ones the only company ive heard of having good ufo's is prosource and they are hella expensive , dont know what your budget is but i would gra two blackstar 240's for that space if ya want budget priced panels .... if ya got the loot go with spectra's from growledhydro they are about 700 per 290w unit but they are the real deal man you wont be disappointed you might even e able to get into contact with mike and he offers a bit of a discount for forum members
