The heat may be a problem at 50 but you can dial them down. :)

My 4 x 4 is currently running at 30 per foot and it is manageable with a scrubber.

And i didn't mean to cause an international incident. There is enough of that going around without my help.

:)
No incident; it's just that with the efficiency of these new lights, 50W/ft² might be past the point of diminishing returns.

A GOOD thing lol

Apologies for interrupting your grow. This isn’t about politics. It’s about espionage and counterintelligence. This guy is a Belarusian operative for Russia claiming to be Greek.

I’ll leave you to your grow, I learned what I needed to.
Uh, what did I stumble into?

Do I need to worry about walking past 3rd floor windows?

I have no idea, but I’m pretty sure I just caught a person or an algorithm operating from a computer in Belarus trying to pass off as a Greek-American.
What did you catch? Why do you think that? I'm not doubting you, I'm interested in how you figured it out.

Because he went to respond to my message that contained Russian Cyrillic, and his computer captured every character in his quoting of me except for two which the Belarusians don’t use. He also deleted the messages, but not before I showed Potroast. Not to mention he immediately jumped to trying to invalidate me when I barely said anything politically, and not at all about him or even too directly about Trump. I simply said “Don’t boycott American business just because you hate Trump. We hate him, too.”

If he weren’t Belarusian, all of the Cyrillic letters would have been repeated, just as anyone else who would quote my messages containing Cyrillic. The only two that weren’t, the Belarusians don’t use, opting for an I instead. For some reason, he translated my и/й to a U, but all the rest of the characters were left the same.

I noticed the same thing from another dude Potroast banned. I don’t want to continue bogging down this guy’s thread, though.

Yea I read that light penetration was better.
Hopefully this won't start another fight, but that whole thing about COBs providing better penetration is myth. That doesn't mean you didn't buy yourself a damn good fixture though. I'm sure you'll be very happy with it.

I don’t believe it to be a myth. Light from a single source vs light from multiple sources provides a difference in how that light penetrates.
