30c is not a heatwave... Its not even swimming temps. You English are so funny.

It's been 35-37 c all week an my plants are just fine too. Granted lights on at night, but still no ac an 21-26 c canopy temps with my 1kw.
If it was only 30 c during the day here I'd turn on another light but I really hate to see temps over 28 or 30 at the highest for my canopy

LEDS will always produce less heat then HPS, plus HPS causes cancer

@kinggrow1 To prove HPS is as cool as LED you need to prove it to us. Photographic proof.
We need a picture of you holding a turned on warmed up HPS bulb in your hands. Just a little 250W is fine.
Then a pic of you holding a switched on 250w LED in your hands.
Hot tip: You may want to hold the LED one first.

40c right now, where I am
You guys are forgeting thermal dynamics imo.
LED will be king sooner or later. I have no doubt.
BUT,
We are comparing apples to oranges regarding heat, and light.
A. A specific kelvin temperature needs to be reached to produce each light spectrum. 2700k, 3500k, 4500k, 7000k, 10000k whatever.
B. Heat travels to where its cooler. Meaning smaller objects like diodes release heat faster, than a bulb containing an arc tube.
But the same kelvin temperature still needs to be produced to create the same light.
Think about how electricity is made. Or the energy / current within chipsets and motherboards in a computer.

Bad comparison , hold a chip without a heat sink attached and tell me what you think. Both will burn the crap out of you.
