The directional reflectors and magnifiers give the light spread a solid 3'x3' footprints at 16" in full power mode.
Half power it has same footprint however without asking nasa I suppose it's just half the output.....

Is air able to get into the side vents with your Osram lights up against go green lights? You might want move the Osram lights out just a hair so the middle light can breathe a bit.
Looks like a decent light though.
Yes I checked this. The room temp is now 73degF the ports that are not covered up are blowing out slightly warm air. So I am not alarmed.

I will however ask for any guidance on a better light mounting system.
The way I have my lights strung up takes away about 12" of grow height I could utilize at some point. So if anyone has a simple solution they've used I'm all about hearing it!!

This morning the top of my FLO(middle plant) were droopy and sad. No burn but that tells me that FLO was not ready for the heat output of the CXB3070 COB after thriving happily off the Osram Oslon Zelion HL panel. However it will adapt and recover just fine.

Total grow room temps have gone up about 3 degF which I'm happy about because I need heat.

I flipped to flower last night so we shall see the outcome. My wattage usage for my S&P 6" 150s inline fan, fan and lights are now consuming about 450watts. I am interested in seeing my outcome. I'm wanting to buy 2 360watt solar panels to make up for my grow usage.....tho my whole house utilities bill was only 140 this month......

If the case on the 200w is just under 12" wide, then it looks like the COBs are about 6" apart (on center)?

What country is the company located in, and where are the lights made?

The prices look very competitive for what you get. Could be a solid contender.

It was shipped to me from NY if I remember correctly.

And Area51's are shipped from somewhere stateside too, but they are made overseas. It's one thing to make the light in China -- when it comes to customer service, it can be another thing if the company is based in China and all you have locally is a distributor. That's why I was wondering where the company is based.

Mostly I'm curious how the industry is moving, if it's possible for lights made in this country to compete against ones made in China once everyone is using the same parts.

I also wonder if they did grow testing and decided that this COB spacing is optimal for growing, or if bean counters realized that if they made the lights smaller it would be significantly cheaper to ship them... They say the four COB light is optimal for a 3x3. If I were to build a light for a 3x3, thinking of it like a # sign, I would put them in a square 12 inches apart. That would seem to me to be the most even spacing. But I'm new to this, so maybe they know why putting them 6" apart (on center) is a superior layout to cover a 3x3.

Go green LEDs has a thread in advertisers I believe. Ask them.
I found them in eBay and they're shipping from NY so I'd guess they're based in us or that's their satellite company in the us.

No clue ok the science of spacing but it looks a lot like PLC and I know he's smart on his lights.
