We manufacture the HLG-550 in USA. The aluminum we buy we pay extra for American processed instead of Chinese (yeah I know not that big of a deal but we are trying). We custom CNC the Aluminum and process it here in the USA as well. Also the HLG-550s msrp represents a margin for retailers. You can find them in an ever increasing number of small mom and pops hydro stores. Again we are trying to support those people that have been supporting this industry for years. The HLG-550 can be had online for less than msrp if one looks around. The guys over at growerslights are good people and we let them offer kits as they fit our idea of good customer service. Not saying that all our retailers aren't great. Most just don't have the time to offer the service of pre assembly that growerslights does. Buying an hlg-550 also funds our future projects and development better lol. To put it out there and being totally honest. We make ok money but so far have invested over 100% of it back into the company. (the company still owes us money lol). In December alone we spent over 2500 in lab testing alone. When you calculate in the 10k we spent in Dec on prototypes that will never see the light of day you can see why we aren't ballin lol.
Buttttt you can know that we are hard at work basically for you trying to breaking the ceiling of efficiency. I know corny right lol.
Thanks again guys for being supportive of our efforts. If not for you we wouldn't be here.
