Have any of you 1000w DE growers finished a crop under LFSW DE? This is not a poll.

I'll give it a shot and assume you mean the square wave vrs sine done by hortilux.This is not a LFSW DE comparison since LFSW appears to be a new concept in DE, to me it is anyway.
This video even though dealing with SE lamps shows a nice comparison between square and sine wave ballasts.

It would be interesting to see what the 860 allstarts would do on LFSW ballast. Quick scan of google yields nothing.... I guess no one has tried the combo publicly. I wonder if advanced tech lighting or hortilux would comment on that subject.

Testing this now, in the dissent grow.

Noticeable difference in output? Thats exciting.

@dbkick sure thinks so, and he's seen it in running on my mags here. I'd expect easily thirty percent more output, and it's likely running LESS watts doing it; it's a digital unit and so it's almost certainly more efficient than a magnetic ballast and therefore would pull less excess wattage to provide the lamp with the same 1kW.

I'm gettin allllllll jelly!
