So since you guys are so knowledgeable about all the great LED companies out there maybe you could help me pick a new light for my 4x4. I'm just sooooo confused!

I could add a dozen + more obscure and better known companies and panels too. The point is you guyz and galz have become so stale in your corner of the internet I'm just wondering if affirmation is your thing when it should be information because that sharing of info is what drives LED cannabis growing for the masses. Sure most of this stuff is overpriced, but that's the real world of budgetary politics. For us it should be to look, listen, wonder and learn and not say only this and that is good or bad. This is 2020 not 2014 when choices were slim, so explore a little and stop paying too much attention to the arguments of the shills, salespersons, parasites and the know-it-alls who think only a handful of companies are worthy of your respect and attention.

Some interesting products and companies, thanks for all the links! I voted for the Verta at the top, I insist you buy it and give a full report! ;-)
10 Year warranty on the widest strips I've seen and populated with Samsung, Lumileds and Osram. 7 Year driver warranty.

S1 spectrum on the verta is interesting, never seen it on a full fixture, but maybe not 100% flower centred.

I think you'll find that most of us are ready and willing to pay attention to any company that offers full transparency regarding components, legit third party testing numbers, and a reasonable price. Yeah, there's some brand loyalty going on as well, but consider that most of those brands check the above boxes - in other words, they earned it.
