I haven't been able to find a more effecient umol/j light, or even ppfd map than the Geekbeast Pro 630 watt.A Timber is like $800, right? A HLG QB96 rig shouldn't be much more than $600 for equal wattage. $180 for two HLG-320H-54A drivers. $$380 for six QB96's. $40 for misc wire, connectors, and hangers.
Advantage to running in 2x240 vs one 480?Two 240's. Now I run three QB96's per 240 for a total of around 480watts. It's plenty of light for me, and frankly you can crank those A type drivers way past 240watts. I can hit close to 300watts with both dials set to max.
Lol that’s awesome - should be killer resultsI am going to be jamming (3) Spiderfarmer SF1000 and (1) SF4000 in my 4x4 lol I am excited to see what I yield
Lol I would think I would kill the plants with too much ppfd, but I do have co2 enrichment. I think if I bring it up to 1500 ppm they should be able to soak up the lightLol that’s awesome - should be killer results
They seem decent. What's the cost on those after shipping? I know there were issues with the Far Red only being able to be on during main lights on, but maybe they fixed that?I haven't been able to find a more effecient umol/j light, or even ppfd map than the Geekbeast Pro 630 watt.
If I could go back before I spent money on any of my other lights, I would have just bought that one in the first place.
Aha. import fees get you there.Advantage to running in 2x240 vs one 480?
I’m looking at this right now - seems like a lot of light for the $...

I’m in Canada and it’s always a bitch ordering from US ($75 shipping HLG, then I get hit with duties at the border), they don’t carry the qb96 in their Canadian site for some reason
Being able to spread them out more and have a move even canopy coverage.Advantage to running in 2x240 vs one 480?
Ok right, that makes perfect senseBeing able to spread them out more and have a move even canopy coverage.
I decided to get 2 x P1500 and 2 x P1000 Viparspectra for 2 tents instead of single lights in each tent at double the specs. Means i can spread the lights out to cover the tent, split them in to smaller tents as singles, arrange them to do a long grow space like a 2x8 so they are more versatile. And if your one and only single light fails in the middle of a grow you still have lighting while you source a replacement.Advantage to running in 2x240 vs one 480?
