I don't hate LED. I'm a proponent for LED. Data for the HLG-550 was collected from their website. Data for 1000w HPS was collected using the SQ-500 quantum sensor from Apogee Instruments at a mounting distance of 24". The HLG-550 is not a successor to 1000w HPS, it is inferior. If you want to...

There would absolutely be a drastic change in the amount of light the plants receive. I tested 1000w HPS @ 24" and it produced 892.79 µmoles/m2/s on a 49 point photometric uniformity test. On the 33 point test HLG showcases on their HLG-550 product page, the HLG-550 produced 625µmoles/m2/s...

Yeah, why so many tents? Is there a specific purpose in mind for that? If you are set on running 2x 1,000 watters, I'd go with a 4'x8' tent for flower so you have space for equipment, walking room and optimal reflectivity. For veg, you may as well get another 4'x8' tent and you'll have plenty of...

You may want to consider the possibility that you do not understand what he's saying. Many people have found they reached a point with psychedelics, a peak so to speak, where afterwards they do not enjoy the same experience as they had before. For me it was almost as if the substance was telling...

my rig is gonna run cxm22s. got a 25 pack for the price break - yeah they are still considerably cheaper than other chips, and very efficient at the wattage i'm looking for. i'm aiming for 1,450(+/-) PPFD in a 4'x4' footprint. There was a study I read on optimal PPFD for cannabis. I've got...

nice. i'm putting a 4'x4' fixture together at the moment. gonna be about 750w at full power. did you notice any major differences in using the more pattern type design vs even rows?

what convinced you that 7k led will be a suitable replacement for 12k hps?

hope all is well with you duck!

More like 750-800w for COB LED realistically.

I wish I were in a position to offer. I'm not sure how well I'd handle a thumbprint. Surely I'd never again be the same. I can however relate to, "coming back from the dead". After months of preparation, and a 2 day fast, 12 grams of psilocybe cubensis sent me to a realm where I'd never imagined...

Everyone who's seen the single COB I powered up commented on how overly bright it was relative to their expectations. I'm excited to put together a full fixture in the next couple weeks now that things have smoothed out over here on my end.

What made the COB experiment a failure? I'd like to know what configuration you chose for your COB setup. I'll be running a COB experiment myself in the near future.

Have you ever done a thumbprint?

I'm trying to dim to a specific amperage and will likely be doing a lot of that in the future so I'm fine with having spent $125 for the Fluke meter. Especially since I mistakenly purchased the wrong meter when going the cheap route in the first place.

It works!!! Thank-you!! The meter reads 1.380a for a 1.4a driver turned all the way up, so very accurate!

So I failed in wiring up the multimeter with my COB. When I plugged the power in, the COB didn't light up. I made a diagram for the wiring to make sure I didn't fuck anything up in the first place: https://imgur.com/KfMS8iY A/C In: https://imgur.com/d6aVoyk D/C Out: https://imgur.com/Fs0ZXFe...

He was replying to a post regarding cost...

Designing and assembling grow spaces for a living, the dream...Much respect to you sir

Yeah, I'll probably just grab a meter in the $30-$40 range. It should be accurate enough.

What do you mean by 'strips'?
