Hi, new to the game and cant decide what to get but I come across two of the above lights to accommodate a 4x4 tent. They are secondhand and for both guy is asking £270. Are they worth the money? Thanks

That light would about cover a 2x2.

360w are no way enough for a 4x4
uk?

 

[blake9999]

You would really need 4 of those lights. You see, buying the el-cheepo lights don't save any money. You better off going with a 600W MH/HPS combo.

 

[maksimilijan]

Yes, UK. So basically they are not good enough taking into account what is out there at the moment?

 

[maksimilijan]

Thanks, I will have to have another look but it has to be led light as I am off grid solar and on a tight budget.

@diyled is probably the man you're looking for if you need quality led lights in EU

Are you going to run your lights of batteries at night or running them while you charge, daytime? One user here on RIU runs his flower at 8-9 hours to not drain batteries. Flower cycle was significantly shorter.

It will be predominantly at daytime but I think with my solar system I should be good at night time as well. Was his yield smaller as well because of a shorter flowering cycle?

 

[Rocket Soul]

Mostly the same, i ihink his handle was torontoke. Search for 8 hour flowering on the forum or similar.
And +1 on getting intouch with diyled. The samsung strips he uses for light have been shown to be the most light / watt around. Forget about blue and red light, its 99.9999% bogus

 

[maksimilijan]

I just did, and for my 4x4 tent his light is £380

 

[maksimilijan]

Just to confirm, when I said 4x4 I meant feet.....

How many watts?

 

[maksimilijan]

How many watts?

375w equivalent of 550w hps

Sounds reasonable, especially if its its built for you or very easy DIY. Hard to comment without any real idea what hes proposing but genrally his stuff are good.

Thanks. I must admit I like the simplicity of his light. In my view more gizmo less quality and vice versa

 

[blake9999]

Another +1 for dealing with @diyled . He's in EU and your best shot at getting a decent price.

 

[maksimilijan]

Thanks guys, really useful information as there is so much crap out there and not enough knowledge or hands on experience on the LED's.

The h350 isnt designed for a 4x4. It would lack light in the edges and you need more wattage.

Check out our quantum board section. We will have them in stock in a couple of weeks.

Good quality leds are not cheap. But you get what you pay for.
