You are full of shit.
Here is one of thier new lights. Just got it.
Ive worked with geyapex since the first light. They have delivered exactly what was ordered everytime. They listened to suggestions on how to improve the light. The first ones had small heatsink that needed fans. Notice the new ones are nothing but a huge heatsink. I think the old models may still be available.
Yes this is a newer company. As far as I'm concerned they are professional and back thier word.
Anyone interested can either listen to the ones just bashing for no reason or to the ones that actually have experience.
Is that the Bridgelux cob?

I'm not 100% sure. I need to get the specs on it.
The first light I got from them had citizen 1212 cobs.
This one is branded under thier name. Supposed to be full spectrum.
Give me a few minutes and I'll get the specs.

This one is the bridgelux cobs. I'm waiting on specs now.
The way the light is setup you choose what cobs you want.

On the website it does not give that option now

I was just on the website. It says it's available with different cobs.
Click on parmore and it shows the different models.
The luma series are on sale. $179 bucks for a 4 cob light is a steal. Thats cheaper than buding one.

Looks nice but one thing I don't understand. I see arrays with 28 white diodes and 8 deep red ones, right. When we want a series parallel circuit with equal voltage on each parallel string the only logic configuration would be 7 white and 2 deep-red in series and this 4 times in parallel. But on the array they have mentioned a 12s3p circuit and such a circuit design means one of the strings would have 4 deepreds while the other two have only 2 deepreds. So one of the string would shine much brighter and this leads also to thermal runaways. So either its a mistake and they have printed something worng on these arrays or they have found a way to distribute 8 diodes evenly on 3 circuits.
Diodes look like white Cree XT-E's and the red or deep red ones could be Cree, Prolight or Epiled 3535's. Not bad but the efficiency of this light is maybe ~2,0μMol/J. But I like the way its made; fat heat sink passively cooled. I don't like lenses but they need it to get IP65 ratings and most if not all commercial lights use them. So its a common evil. But the rest looks okay!
Can not keep up with the 2,7μMol/J of a fluence spider2i but it costs for sure only a fraction. Same old story; you get what you pay for.

That is a good looking rig ... is the driver fixed or standoffs ? Wondering about long term use and thermal shutoff of driver. Heat fins look pretty pronounced thats why im asking. Lens look removable too... looking forward to seeing this fired up.

Sure.
Remember this is just this light. They offer it with other cobs as well.
The luma series is on sale. I may buy a couple more for myself. Less than a dollar a watt. I cant build them that cheap.
I think this light would be better suited without the reds and uv added.
I will be honest and say that I would prefer the citi, Vero or cree. I was asked to test this light and that's what I will do.
Bottom line is that they need to change some of thier marketing. This light will not replace a 600 watt hid. I think that's more on someone in marketing. Get rid of the exaggeration and stick with the numbers.
The company is legit and will send whats ordered. The more companies offering lights like this the cheaper they will be.
When I test something I am honest with the short comings. This company has listened.
The driver bolts to the heat sink. The heat sink has a milled section for the nuts to slide in.
The driver just kind of sits on top of the heat sink. There is also room to mount the driver somewhere else.

Picked one up(Citi 1212) a couple weeks ago. Immediately opened up the case when it got here - it's legit.
And yeah, the lenses are removable.

Yea. I ran mine without the lenses.
