best area51 led for my cab?

hey peeps

I have a cab that is 4' x 2' x 6,7'

I have a blackstar 240 but want to add another led. I have heard good things about area51 so im considering getting one of those. Which one would be the best one? the all whites or white and red? and what wattage?

I heard blackstar240 penetrates 3 feet. Does area51 penetrate deeper?

Thanks!

You would need at least two.. And the ladies tell me the A51 penetrates the deepest.. haha

Go with the Area 51 RW-150, as their red and white spectrum yields more. You'll definitely get deeper canopy penetration with A51 than you will with a Blackstar.

You may want to get two RW-75s because your area is not square shaped.

Neither is an rw150 or xgs...if anything the 75's/100's are the most square in shape than anything.
A rw 75 is exactly half the 150's....as if cut down the middle...12 lenses cut down to 6....72 chips cut down to 36.

I know that but you can spread them out better each could cover a 2x2 area which could be 4x2 coverage. And I have two blackstar 240 panels and they cover like a 2x2 but you got to keep them very close so they don't get much penetration the area 51 gets better penetration I have a sgs160.

so everyone agrees that the rw red and white spectrum is better than the all white xgs190? im not sure what to get

I think it was @az2000 that did a grow side by side with the 150 and the 190 and they yielded the same, so less power used by the 150 would indicate its more efficient. But that's only 1 side by side grow that I've heard of from a trustworthy guy. So take it fwiw. The owner is on here he might chime in.

BadKarma said the same thing. I think his experience was more than 1 grow.

The extra 40 watts might be worth viewing plants under more natural light. But, the RW looks natural enough to me. The XGS creates an unnatural iridescence on the leaf surface. Like, how new growth tends to be a little more lime green, the XGS seems to visually amplify that color giving it almost a glow or fluorescence. I like looking at plants under the RW I think.
