What? Did he have some vanta black walls in that tent or something? Mylar is 98% reflective. You could say 2% is being absorbed by the walls, sure, but 98% is being reflected back inside, how would you lose half the light from 98% reflective walls.. or are you trying to state a different point than I'm understanding from what you wrote?
And it is. But why are you so convinced of this?? You care more about Chip efficiency then system efficiency in the garden??
Do you understand how the measurement of PAR works? I would like you to do some research on the subject of the difference between a measurement of radiance in mW and PAR if you don't know. You will then have your answer as to why a PAR meter isn't suitable for comparing different fixtures and different spectrums. This wont cover beam angles and fixture sizes but it is one of the reasons why using a PAR meter is not an accurate way to compare different fixtures.
Bro, are you Teknik?
the problem is that the 98% are in a ideal world, 100% clean, no wrinkles, right angle etc.
sure, but you should still be getting more light in a tent than you would with the same light out in the open... Although, I suppose: if you had only a small tent where the canopy would fill the space and completely block all light under it, if that same plant(s) were in a larger area or tent with the same light then you could potentially get more light available to it?
No my examples are companies spending lots of money on marketing. A brand has value. It doesn't create itself. It costs lots of time and money. Why not let all cola companies call thier cola Coke? Why not let all shoe companies call thier shoes Nike? I never once said quantum board was scientific. It is a brand that we spent a lot of time and money in creating. I am certainly not ok with someone else benefiting from my work and advertising efforts.
It's a brand name. That's the name they chose. Paid to have it trademarked. Anybody who uses the term Quantum Board, for an LED product, is in violation of intellectual property statutes, and should prepare for a lengthy and costly litigation. The right to use the term Quantum Board legally belongs to HLG. It's really that simple.
sure, you get more light to your plant with reflective walls, but nowhere 98%.
And why can't you
We did trademark the name and the design is patented as well. We even have utility patents pending. It's just a matter of time. It takes 3 yrs for the patent to become final.... It's close. I have asked nicely because I honestly don't wanna be that guy that sues the hell out of someone.
Better to just slide 1 step ahead of them and loose the 550 platform for something with better distribution. Leaving them in a cloud of dust selling "yesterdays tech"

I 100% agree.
Sorry, but one last thing, because it has bugged me since I replied: Where is your proof that "What most do not realize is Spider Farmer is Mars Hydro...... They send this stuff straight to a Amazon warehouse from China." IMHO opinion SF is vastly superior in design and execution than any Mars crap I've seen. Meaning: if they have that superior talent, why are they making crap under the Mars name? AND, why would you throw that out here without providing proof? Not doing so, calls your credibility into serious question
yeah closest I can find on anything is just talk from other people.
You're invited. I love to learn!
