Or... You could not give your money to the same people who ripped you off with their deceptive advertising.
Check out migro on YouTube, he just reviewed a super cheap Amazon light that actually doesn't suck. Buy that one if you want a cheapo light, at least it's tested and is efficient and has...
You can use what you got. Throw all it at them in flower. But you'll have to limit it to one or a couple plants that actually fit under the area you can get bright enough with that thing. Can expand out into the rest of your space as you can pick up more lights.
It's a 260 watt light and it's not going to be very efficient so 40watts/sqft would be a good number. So that light is good for around 6sqft and you'll need 6 more to light 50sqft.
I'm guessing your 1500 watt light is a 200 watt light. So it'll light like 5 of those sqft.

I replaced my shit China fan with a 6” duct fan from them. Couldn't be happier with it. Even at high speeds all the sound is the air moving through the little holes in the carbon filter, the fan is so quiet you don't hear it over the air moving. At low speeds it super quiet. Would recommend...
That's crazy.. beyond the money, just lugging the water is making a awesome hobby more chore for no reason. Tons of people use tap water and get great results.
I don't think they like you... You can try it. But I think your going to have nothing but disappointing results. I'd run CFLs or T5s before that junk and I'd never recommend anybody flower under either. But at least you could veg under the home depot options and not have issues. Between the...
Yikes... I'm not a light snob and even I'd recommend returning that one if you can, or selling it, or using it as a step, or to hold down papers in a breeze..
Depends on your budget. They really aren't comparable lights. The SF is a way better product. But your paying way more per watt for it.
Edit: looked up that Viparspectra. Don't buy that. If your getting cheap blurple garbage it should at least be cheap. At least here in Canada on Amazon that...
