I can only give my very limited experience. Ordered my PG180 at end of March, got by first of April. Has been working like a champ every day since so no need for company interaction yet. I hope it stays that way.

How much square footage is the pg-180 covering for you?

Its hard to say. I do not have a light meter but visually it appears that the PG180s effective lighting drops off dramatically outside of its footprint. When I raise the lights quite a bit, it does cover more area, but how intense is the light at the edges? Again, no way to measure. So judging by what I see with the eye, I only use the panel for 2 mature plants at one time (I only use it for flowering).

I will say this: my Pure AK is only 5" below the light as I cannot raised the panel any higher, the plant stretched tremendously in flower. I do not see any issie with light bleaching but the one top that is not under the light has bent itself to reach for the light. This top is actually at the edge of the panel case, not the lighted area itself.
