Yeah I agree with this..........get the cooler running panel with higher lm/per watt temps??......add warm white cree bulbs if needed.........remember it has a flat heatsink, that fan ever fails ==no bueno
I don't know if I'd even call it a heat sync. That's one thing that boggles my mind with Hans panels. How the fan redirects heat through sheet metal.
 
One of us should do a 80w vs 65w test with clones and the same environment, soil, nutes,... :)
Hello guys, perhaps a bit late in this discussion but I am doing just that.

About 2 years ago I was living in an appartment and bought 2 65W Hans Panels, intended for a small scale grow in a closet. However, I had to move and never got around to setting it all up. The panels moved with me to the next place and I had to start over with my plans as I now had a bigger space and it needed some serious construction before being able to grow anything there. AND before I got around to it... I moved again :D Now to an even bigger house with a quite nice basement where I now have set up my grow. But to fill this space with more light I once more went on to Bonsai Hero's website and saw that Hans had made a new 80W model and I bought 3 of them.

So, one of the two 65W panels will be used for mothers in a closet and the rest (1x65W and 3x80W) will be used for veg and flowering.

Check out my grow journal:
White Widow, Rhino & The Ultimate in coco with LED's

Here's my setup

The panel on the far left is the 65W and the rest are 80W panels.

The only White Widow and Ultimate that survived sprouting will both become mothers and moved out from this area to a closet. I will also pick out the strongest White Rhino of the bunch and turn that into a mother as well. So, I will have 4 White Rhinos that will be run through their full cycles in here and one of them will be sitting under the 65W while the others under 80W.
Right now they are all switched to the "SEED" setting and from what I can see the 65W panel is a bit more red in its light while the 80W panels are a bit more blue. Right now the smallest of the Rhinos are sitting under the 65W light but when I have picked out the mother and moved all the mother plants from this room I intend to stick one of the stronger/bigger plants under the 65W so I will have two Rhinos with the same size under both LED models, just to see if there's any difference at all between the two.
Also, I recently visited Bonsai Hero again and saw that Hans have now developed a 150W model and I'm considering buying one or more of these as well at a later point and make an ever bigger experimen. This new model have only two settings though.

So come follow my journal and see how it all turns out

Your journal link isn't working for me. It says I don't have permission to access it.
 
Oh ok, I checked and apparently I had a setting in privacy that nobody could read my blog... Weird that that's the default 'cus I sure as hell haven't unchecked that box. Anyway - try now :)

I like how you suspended your lights from the 2x2. It gives you the option to easily raise or lower all 4 lights together if needed. Def' something to look at when I get my tent set up.

Good luck with the grow.

Thanks Heavy Consumer! And as the lights are suspended using carabiners I can easily turn the lights 90° and then the 2''x2'' also gives me the option of moving the entire set of lights back and forth if I need to get a second row of lights in there.
