Hello,

Am about to begin this build with 2 rooms, each with 14x vero 29 C at 1.75a around 120w. Will mount them on 150x120mm pin Fin heatsinks together with Khatod PL1845SR ultra clear silicone square pattern lens. They will be driven in series by HLG-480H-1750C drivers and two HLG-240H-1750C.

I have been reading the debate about the 80 CRI or 90 CRI. I really thank the dawg for his side by side grow to show us what's happening. Still for a big build like this I would like to know if it is better to use 90 over 80, just because I really like the efficiency of the 80 CRI's. 90 CRI seems to finish early but end result I don't know yet. What about product quality?

Also would like to know if anyone is using these a-symmetrical Khatod silicone lenses. On paper the square 120 degree radiation pattern with even light spread seams ideal. What do you guys think?

Thank you all

I don't think there is a big difference in product quality and quantity but a huge difference in time needed for a run.
It seems the spectrum quality balances the slightly poorer electrical efficiency more than off!

And about the kathod's, the more even coverage the better!

Sounds like a nice and powerful setup!
I believe you will be amazed by your initial results!
