    please dont go with these lights....with an investment like this you need that 3 year warranty them top brands offer n the 90 day trials are awesome too cuz u might not like them

    i would trust a company from china (and ebay at that) with that much money and they say...

    "Recommended height above plants: 31 to 40 inches
    Recommended Lighting Time:
    Vegetative Stage: 14-18 hours on"

    these companies don't even test their equipment most of the time and if it breaks 1/2 way threw your grow your shit outta luck.....

    Shirogane7 i don't know if you have ever used a top of the line LED (or any LED for that matter)....alot of these companies on ebay tell you they are 450watts but that is just what the led chips are rated at(probably 3w a piece) and they are only pushing 250w(50 of which are used on the 3 big fans on the back) so lets do some math here...450 divided by 3 is 150,so 150 chips rated at 3watts a piece yet they only have 200 watts of power pushing them so...200watt divided by 150............ya your pushing 1.33 watts thru 3 w chips....dosent that seem kinda fishy.....
     


  2. I personally.. Went with:

    2 Blackstar 120W UFO's.
    1 Blackstar 240W Panel.
    15 50W LED Grow Lamps.

    All seem to be working well.

    Got warranties on all of them for 3 years.
    And applied for the growing program on the site that rhap suggested.
