Check out the spectrum on my Amares. You'll see that 35k is not quite as full spectrum as you think in comparison. You know me Six, I'll be doing a grow with it to show results too. Pretty sure there's UV diodes but not sure. There is IR though. I'll check n lyk. Still haven't plugged this monster in yet.
Not sure what other data I could share beyond what I have already?Well if it does have uv and ir then thats a good thing.i just see some china panels toss some nifty red and blue diodes around a older cob and call it the whip,this is why i was asking for specific information on par,chip,and spectrum info from you a few weeks ago.people dont want to just take someones word for it,we want the hard data.so dont be so offended when somebof us keep asking the same questions about amare.its when you take it so personal that some start to wonder if your not just pitching a sale lol.
I do want to see your tests and par reports and hopefully smo is building you a decent diy cob setup to compare against and not some over driven shitzen panel with all the wrong drivers and heatsinking lmao.i know he aint doin that,just gotta make sure you compare apples n apples
It has UV. And amare prides more in the diode clusters then the cobs. They are focussing mostly on delivering a spectrum near our sun at a max possible CRI. The cobs ar for deep penetration and mb for a wider covering area.
You're absolutely right pizzon. It's more about the spectrum. All top components are a given. Hence the high par #'s with the sun mimicing spectrum. High par w/ a shot Burple spectrum ain't helpin. So, there's allot more to it then par. Also more to it then common beliefs. All that green is what allows for further penetration. Plus gaps are filled that cobs just fall short on.
I get you have issues with the guy but its sometimes best to just leave it alone, no ones going to think that sticking a fork in a wall socket is a good idea. People can do their own research on the product and ask more spear headed questions after they choose a light they like. That said Im not trying to stat anything just stating that letting it go may be a better route to go.
this is part of that gets me with this Amare circle jerk thing is i think they believe that by focusing on certain nm they are doing something special but all they are doing is changing the SPD
Their reasoning, as far as I understand it, is specifically to target photomorphological responses. Whether it's a positive or negative change, or even worth considering, is entirely up for debate. That is what sets them apart from other brands, though. I think it's best to see it from this angle rather than debating efficiency, penetration, or any other moot point in an age where ultra efficient leds are becoming the norm. I see a lot of room for constructivity here, and would love to see testing of say 3500k vs these adjusted curves in plant tissue response. It could even be inhibiting or promoting terpenes, etc. Just my thoughts on the matter, I've seen a lot of hate and backing on the subject without much testing or apparent understanding of the intended purpose of such a spectral shift. No offense intended to either side.
what about old red/blue grow lights?

I absolutely agree. I'm not plugging them in any way; I just wanted any debate on the subject to be focused on the only thing they're doing differently than other commercial fixtures as I have an interest in the outcome. I've seen very different results myself, but haven't had enough specifics to come to much of a conclusion on whether it's worth it or not, and even less so on x configuration to achieve y result. Thanks for threads to check out, I'll look at the 4000+660 and 5k for sure.
The quality is more based on the growers skill and genetics not the light.
Actually heatsinks that most haven't even seen yet. Oversized for once too. As for the drivers they are coming direct from meanwell. Don't worry six things will be fine. Locally they don't last more than 12 hours on the shelves and it is not another standard Home Depot hardware isle light like we see so much of.Well if it does have uv and ir then thats a good thing.i just see some china panels toss some nifty red and blue diodes around a older cob and call it the whip,this is why i was asking for specific information on par,chip,and spectrum info from you a few weeks ago.people dont want to just take someones word for it,we want the hard data.so dont be so offended when somebof us keep asking the same questions about amare.its when you take it so personal that some start to wonder if your not just pitching a sale lol.

Sun grown weed may look like dirt but should be the ... best?
You think? Personally I can't say I do. When has sun grown weed won a cannabis cup or tested highest in thc? I also believe fake titts look best
