We will list them later on our website, the price I quoted includes UPS shipping, Inventronics driver we use on Mega Plus, please email us info@hortibloom.com for order issue :)
Your light looks like a blatant copy of another light

Is it made in the land where blatant copies are very common & condoned as it boosts their economy dishonestly

Feel free to throw a wobbly

Hey RIU led experts. I'm in the market for a new light. I'm not a DIY guy and I'd like a prebuilt from within Canada so I've narrowed my options down to the 3 listed in the title which are all available in Canada but I am unsure which will fit my situation best. HLG 550 v2, BCBlondes Gamechanger or RapidLED Chilled Logic Pucks now that they have a .ca website.

HLG 550 uses 480w covers a 4.5 x 4.5 area and costs $1350 cad
BCBlones Gamechanger 680 uses 680 watts covers a 5 x 5 area and costs $1339 cad
2x Chilled Logic 2x4 uses 630 watts covers a 4 x 4 area and costs $1300 cad

Hey Bro. The easiest way to compare grow lights is to look at the total par that the fixture creates.

BCB 680 GC 1636 PPF
HLG 550 v2 1178-1257 PPF
Cutter Kit: 1200 PPF

The HLG and cutter kit put out about 75% of what the BCB 680 GC does. You will literally grow 25% less weed with the other lights.

Hit me up at bcblondes@gmail.com or at 604 265 5779 to chat, I can send one out today. There is no comparison when looking at bang for buck.

All diodes used in my current offerings are Samsung lm301b 3000k SK bin, and genuine meanwell power supplies. This is proven with my 3rd party testing report which is on my website.

I am a true Canadian company, not a usa owned company with Canadian distribution like the other guys.

You need to watch what you say man.
Ya your "Game Changer" has a small amount of Par more than the others and honestly in a 4X4 it's TOO MUCH LIGHT. but not only that. Your light is quite a bit more expensive.

It has 4 levels of dimming, 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%. So no, it doesn't have TOO MUCH LIGHT. Its designed for 4x4 or 5x5. I use it on 100% power on 4x4's.
The HLG unit is actually more expensive than my light in canada.
The Cutter kit you mentioned is a DIY kit, its not even in the same category.
When you refer to 36% more light being 'a small amount of light' it clearly shows your bias.

Have a great day

@BCBLondesLEDGrowLights Bummer dude you're late to the party. I already went ahead and ordered the rapidled lights.

If I could have found more instances of people growing with your lights and I would have put more consideration to your light but the fact you are the only person on instagram hashtagging your light leaves me a little worried. I looked around a bunch online and just couldn't find any grower reports/reviews of your light. Your light has great specs on paper and while that may be true I need more than just the sellers word. The communities stamp of approval and community advertising goes a long way. I recommend you encourage your customers to use the hashtag on their instagram. If I could have easily found a bunch of successful grows and happy customers of yours I just might have went straight to purchasing from you before ever creating this thread.
