First thank you to @DrKiz for getting me to this point...(I got the boss a steak, forget foot massages lolol)
Looking at two Meijiu bars and also a kingbrite. All fairly similar but in trying to decide I noticed Meijiu has the a8 ($740) which lists as 650 watts without UV and IR but they also have the octopus bar($800) which is listed as 600 with UV and ir. Both are running the meanwell HLG 600H-48B driver. Kingrbite($624) has a similar light to the octopus with 600w with UV and ir but comes with Cree instead of Osram. I am admittedly new to these new style qb boards/bars but trying to learn. If I understand things correctly, the power comes from the driver so shouldnt they all be 600? I cant image not having UV an ir is like supercharging the driver to put out 50 extra watts lol.
I did send an inquiry to our friend Doris at Meijiu to see what see says but I will be surprised if she can answer it like you all can
I think the decision is between the a8 and the kingbrite really as I type this all out and look at it. Cant seem to justify an extra 180 for osram over cree which would be the difference betwen the octopus and the kingbrite
