I've checked some of the vids out but it all seemed very foreign to me. When I move and begin building my room I will be watching and learning from those vids. if you want to send me some links for parts I would be very appreciative.

I've been checking out LED's too. It looks like they're some what reasonably priced if you have the know-how to build them yourself. I don't. My eyes glaze over when I start watching those vids. So, I've decided to go with the 630 watt LEC's to replace my 1000 watt HID's. Probably not as efficient as LED's, but there will still be some energy savings.

You don't need to learn the tech if you don't want to or have trouble grasping it. Just need someone that does that will recommend what you need for your set up,I'm always around. Assembly is pretty basic,you can buy heatsinks that are already drilled and tapped and there are holders that are solderless.

exactly how I felt watching the vids and reading through the led forum. not familiar with lec's but if if i have good instructions I don't have a problem building stuff. Energy savings is a definite plus but I am going to try to be efficient as possible when I build my new room so leds will definitely be the way to go if I can manage it

Good luck! I know my limitations though, and building shit is one of them. Shoulda seen me trying to put together my Costco shed last weekend. :shock:

There are some great pre-built lights on the market now,just plug and play or you could have someone build it for you if you want something more custom.

I've looked into all the different pre built leds and it's hard to tell good from crap. At least for me it is.

I can tell from reading the specs in a couple minutes,there's only a handful that I would recommend at the moment,the majority are crap or older tech.

That is why I haven't dropped the cash on a prebuilt one . I'd get one that was 2 years behind or something. Lol

Josey made the GG#4 available to many people without charging a dime.He let it be known peeps were free to share her.For someone to throw pollen on it and charge 450 a cut is disrespectful imo.
