    Mammoth mint white emerald green 880w

    Well yeah generally, the royal blue and deep red diodes today put those bulb diodes to shame... Plus you can shades of blue and shades of red today, and even a cunthair or white in there to just to even it out...green is getting better too. The only argument for using green (at least the way I...

    Mammoth mint white emerald green 880w

    You're right, and the blurple today isn't what it used to be, it's much better. Wider spectrum choices in both red and blue, along with white to serve as green.

    Mammoth mint white emerald green 880w

    White and red is all you need. You can get fancy with UV,FR,Green,Blue whatever... But I doubt you're really going to notice that much of a difference other than maybe better terpenes and plant shape. CO2 and intensity are more important than all the mumbo jumbo.

    NEWS: New Red diode from Osram

    I heard through a guy (in the LED industry) that the true increase in efficiency would only be around 5% for the 3737's. But 5% is still the bump we've been anticipating over previous generation 3030's. There 3535's that are quite good too.

    Upgrading LED Lights

    I'm missing a light with a switch, more blue in veg, more red in flower. But generally, the only reason you'd be getting better results with one brand over the other is spectrum. You're better off getting a light that is geared towards RGB ratios, with higher concentration of red in the...

    NEWS: New Red diode from Osram

    Yeah, Osram is quite good on price for what you get. Always have been.

    NEWS: New Red diode from Osram

    Not sure why they have 2 far reds GF 1 and 2? I don't think the 640 is released yet. The 3737 were advertised many months ago, but they were not available until recently. The white one is pretty impressive too at almost 10x PPF a lm301 from Sammy.

    NEWS: New Red diode from Osram

    Well yeah, that's true to an extent, and you can get quite high red from 3000k diodes, but the more phosphorous you put in them, the less efficient they become. The added 660nm red also peaks higher than the red in whites quite considerably.

    Interesting? Samsung Shifts Focus: Exit from LED Business to Prioritize Semiconductor

    I could almost see this coming... White light is no longer most efficient in the 301 package from Samsung, and they never did make red, or blue in a 3030 package. I do like their 437nm contribution, although their own tests show better flavinols coming from a non-437nm diode. If they would...

    NEWS: New Red diode from Osram

    So, Osram recently released a new 3737 Red diode which is 11% more efficient than previous generation. Another thing worth mentioning is that the peak wavelengths are shifted from 646nm-666nm from previous generation to 665nm-680nm. So more towards the 700nm mark. I'm not sure the difference...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    Dude, there are several diodes which are out on the left board. As Rocketsoul says, just cut it in half an discard the faulty side. Then run the positive and negative to the positive and negative on the driver an run half the power. You could probably use a wattmeter to know what wattage you're...
