Anybody have any luck with VIPARSPECTRA LED's?
I just want to add. My posts was not being harsh on vipar. They work well , however take the v900 i have it will replace a 400 watt hps. Not a 900 or even a 600. If your light pulls 415 watts like my v900 u have a 400 watt grow light not a 900....so take the wattages and coverages with a grain of salt guys. U need more than they tell u

Well not sure if after 3 grows you will get the same results? At least add supplemental light...1 st time grower, I know there is more efficient out there. Would definitely use again.(For personal grow)
Got ya, I agree that prob after 3 grows you'll want to upgrade. Just bc there's so much better and prices on A+ gear keeps plummeting. They had their place 2 yrs ago but not now.

900w Viperspectra in 2x4 box.
Recommend for personal small closet grow.
Probably good 3 grows Max before replacing...
I wouldnt make claims like that if you dont know..
I dont recommend these lights to anyone, even if on a budget.

Bro, nice looking plant but it's not ready to flip. Needs atleast 3 more weeks to fill in more.

Don't worry about what others are saying about your setup. If it's working for you then go with it.

Other's are just trying to point you towards a better lighting choice. With that said 10 year's ago blurple LEDs were cutting edge.
Thank you my friend..i ll keep use them till i see i need to replace them..but..what is the difference of cob and quantum boards?..are they ready to buy in full spectrum edition at the online stores or it is something i need to create by myself..??.by collecting pieces and try to make the best analogy i can..?i am pretty new to the whole thing and i need to learn..

Reality is you could build a strip or qb that would shit all over the vipars and probably same or less outlay.

1200 actual watts would cost ya about 1700 usd
Oh ok..do you know where can i learn more about them and where can i research for the analogy of the spectrum that i want to create?(full spectrum)..and also where can i research for the materials that i ll need to create this whole project?..Thank you for your usefull info and your help!

Aim for 30W per square foot of growing space, 240w of quantums is enough for a 4x2 tent
480w for a 4x4 etc..
At this time with my 2x vipar 600w each,total 1200w..I have 538 TRUE WATTS in the 1m x 1m tent..that means that i have 50 TRUE WATTS per sq.foot..!My plant loves it..i am in day9 of flowering, today i stopped tucking and i let her to stretch up and i post this photo right now.

Yes but those lights are much less efficient, more of your watts are being lost through heat.
30w psf dies a great job with quantums :)
i really have no idea about quantums or cobs or whateve anything else about led lighting..what is the difference bettween 538truewatts full spectrum vipar with another 538true watts full spectrum panel???same spectrum,same watts..so what is the difference?and how watts are be lost through heat?
