Hydrofarm PARsource Commercial DE System Review?

Discussion in 'Lighting' started by DonFKennedy, May 15, 2015.

  1. I've been searching this for WEEKS, but can't seem to find any real world reviews ANYWHERE!

    Has anyone used or has a friend who has used HydroFarm's (PARsource) Double Ended System?

    I've found a lot of information on Gavita and E-Pap, but I have a close relationship with the owner of the local hydro store and I try to buy locally whenever I can. He says they work nicely and everything, but I ALWAYS research to see what is right for ME.
     
    I've seen the comparisons between the Gavita and E-Papillon double enders and I think Gavita wins it for me. He also carries the Solistek DE Ballasts, but says I'm better off getting the PARsource one... which is just Hydrofarm's greenhouse division.
     
    PLEASE, help me!
     
     
     
     
    I can't find any reviews GOOD NOR BAD.

    There are two versions that they produce (which seems like one copies the Gavita design and one copies the E-Pap design). Here is the official page: http://www.parsource.com/content/commercial-de-system-0
     
     
    And here is the most watched (i guess) review of Gavita vs. E-Pap... not that I care cuz I've read about 30 discussions on them, but it might help you help me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KssVhjA4DUs
     
     
     
  2. Come on.. I know SOMEONE has info on these
     
  3. No doubt,  PARsource just copy from GAVITA and E-P, and the DE bulbs are OEM by USHIO. Just looks not well designed, but no problem for use.
    Don't use Solistek DE bulb, it is not real grow light, and low quality, 
     
    The reflector of E-P seems good for heat dissipation but not good on light distribution. Buy GAVITA is right, buy PARsource the type looks like gavita also no problem if it is cheaper price.
