$850.00 US PLUS SHIPPING
I'm on the fence about purchasing a water cooled version of the 350w light. I did the whole checkout+shipping thing to see what the full cost would be to my door and it came up to something like $650. Ouch. The quality and craftsmanship look top notch, but without cobs in there I think I'll pass. Plus to get the water cooling fully functional I'd bet you'd need a chiller too. Still exotic as f*** though!

Oh man I love these lights. Would want to see em grow some real weed lol. If you gonna make a journal can you give me a link pls.
They are to expensive unfortunately, for me at least, but I love how they look and mostly all these cooling features. For me nr. 1 priority is self cooling.

A simple water cooling radiator rated for the watts with 1/2" ID barbs would work I bet. Route the antifreeze filled tubing out of the room. Use antifreeze or computer water cooling liquid and you'll never need to flush the lines. Ohh and a res of course.

Well, man...I'm super glad that you only had to pay $850 for that light....but if $3K is going to be the retail price then I'll just write these lights off as another "could have been great" thing. That's just way too much money for an individual fixture.

As I mentioned before in a different thread about these lights, I think they are a nice design and more power to the guy who came up with them. But it's much ado about nothing, imo. The cooling options are great and all....but pick one. Water cooling seems potentially dangerous for an electrical device....I dunno. Water can leak and Murphy's Law is ALWAYS in effect.

I would say that the "fancy factor" is right up there, though!
