Looking for Help to test new LED Technology

Hi Guys
We have a new technology in LED and would like some help to test it. SO before I get accused of being a spammer because I dont know the forum rules, (happy to advertise or sponsor), but let me explain the technology to see if it is relevant to you guys first.

Surexi Led modules are small discrete led modules that come in


  1. (First Unique Point,) 4 Spectras, meaning the led colours are premixed inside the package. The package is a small square module that has
  2. (Second unique point) the optics built into the package. The 50 Degree beam angle has very sharp cutoffs meaning the led delivers more in beam lumens. Typically led technology is constrained. No matter what the datasheet on the led says you must depreciate the lumen data by 15% for Power Supply Losses and 10-15% for secondary optic efficiencies(in efficiencies). So the ability to build the optics into the led package means you remove to a large extent the optics inefficiency issue
  3. (Third Unique Point) The premixed spectras delivery light in umols. or Photosynthetic Photon Flux (PPF).Photosynthetic Photon Flux (PPF) is a unit of measure to express the light quantum in photons of solar energy (specific to wavelength) related specifically to photosynthesis and is measured with a quantum meter in units called micro-molesThe Photosynthetic Photon Flux (PPF) calculation is:mol m-2 s-1 (micro-moles of photons per meter squared, per second)

    The table below provides a reference to light levels for (certain) plants or solar conditions

    Approximate PPF for Healthy Plant Growth PAR (micromoles)
    • House Plants 30 to 200 PPF
    • Leafy Crop Plants (i.e. Lettuce & Basil) 200 to 600 PPF
    • Tomatoes & Other Fruit Crops 400 to 1000 PPF
    • Approximate PPF for Solar Condition PAR (micro-moles)

      Full Sunlight in Summer @ Noon 2000 PPF
      Full Sunlight in Winter @ Noon 1200 PPF
The reason PPF is a better guide for Organic growth is that Surexi with premixed Spectra delivers light in terms of radiant energy rather than lumens. If ever look at datasheets on 650nm Royal Blue or far red 660nm , you will note the data refers to milliwatts rather than lumens.

We have a calculator will actual provide you with the amount of umoles we can provide x the amount of modules required to provide te correct amount of Spectra required. The 4 Spectras are
F1 SPECTRUM
General Purpose, High Efficiency
The F1 spectrum is suitable for a variety of plant species throughout their growth cycle. It contains a high proportion of red light, which spurs photosynthesis during the vegetative growth stage and facilitates the flowering stage. It has the highest photon yield efficacy of all Surexi spectra and is recommended for applications with a tight electrical energy budget.
F3 SPECTRUM
Best for Germination and Flowering
This spectrum produces the fastest germination for plant species whose germination requires light. It also gives the best flowering results among all Surexi spectra. Recommended for use in germination chambers and for flower production.
F6 SPECTRUM
Best for Vegetative Growth
The F6 spectrum has an enhanced blue region and provides the fastest vegetative growth results. The increased blue content reduces plant height, thereby improving plant appearance and space utilization. Recommended for the production of leafy green vegetables.
F7 SPECTRUM
Best for Seedlings
This spectrum has the highest blue content of all Surexi spectra and produces stocky plants with short internodal distances, highly desirable at the seedling stage. Recommended for growing seedlings prior to transplantation.

Is this something of interest???

I am going to be doing a comparative grow coming up between Blackstar LEDs, Hydro Grow LEDs and I was looking for one more unit to add to the test.

PM me if your interested in sponsoring the grows third LED.

Would be interested to see how this turns out. I currently use Lighthouse Hydro, and Sunshine system LEDs. The problem with many of these new panels are they usually are just re branded junk or outrageous prices.
On my way to become a medical grower so I'm always looking for more lights.

Hydro Grow Leds are owned and operated by Cammie (formerly Cameron Scott Wieldraayer)the trans gender scammer. It has been well documented. If you're looking for a third company to add I would love to see Grow Hydro LED (not to be confused with Cammie's company), Hydroponics Hut, Stealth, or Advanced. Just my 2 cents.

For more info on Cammie's hyjinks see this thread

Sorry to crap on Led Grow Hydro if you already own one of their units man, I have seen good pennitrator journals. I just came across many disturbing things during my research about Cammie ripping off people in start up businesses that she/he starts, runs for 2-3 years then leaves people holding the bag. With the overwhelming number of people who've been victim to her ploys I couldn't in good faith give her my business and wanted to make sure others are aware of her background. Even if her venture into led lighting is legit, she ripped off a ton of people with promises of Nissan parts that never arrived.
 
I am very interested!
I have 2x240w 7 band HTG Supply and 1x120w Triband HTG Supply LEDs that are about to go
But I would love to try something else in my grow!
Signe me up!

I have two blackstar leds...tried and proven..........wouldnt mind putting them up to the test against the new comer

Im very interested.. I have a small closet grow that could use the extra light and I also have 12000w commercial grow so I can run compparative testts withmy hps, regular mh and cmh. Sorry for shitty typing my phone buttons suck.

PM me if interested.

Edit: just read above posts. Seems kinda sketchy butt im still willing to test it as long its free of cost.

I'm also interested, I'm about to start a new grow using a couple blackstars also....get at my inbox if legit

Would be happy to, not sure I posted enough for PM rights. what do you need?

I will test the unit for you, and grow whatever you would like. I have a grow tent 4x4, and would be happy to take live footage. I would be happy to post weekly results, and as many photographs and measurements you would like. Send me a message if you are interested and I would be happy to work with any and all thanks!!!!!!

I actually just got a call from Michael, who owns Grow LED Hydro, and he is providing a 290w for the test as well.

So the test will be will be Blackstar (aka Lighthouse) VS "Hydro Grow LED" (aka Penetrator) VS "Grow LED Hydro" (aka GLH)

All of the lights donated draw between 290-305w (actual draw) and are rated to grow a 4x4 area.
We actually just had our 3rd company confirm for the test, but if your willing and have a comparable light, we will set up an area for your light as well and include you in the testing.

Do you have an email address I can contact you at?

5x4 ft? It looks very unique!

We have to keep everything uniform to control the testing and have the light as the only variable, so it would have to be a unit which would fit in a 4x4 space.. unless maybe I mount it at an angel so it fits?

Do you have an email address I can contact you at?
