Thoughts on the Zeus 308 board?

It doesn't even mean they are not top quality product. We should wait for some tests.

I didnt say anything about not buying the boards did I?

Check back in a year and see if they are still in business.

They never last. I've seen plenty come and go in the UK. You cant maintain selling crap or copys.

In fact here is another company following the same shit.

That's my point. They arent in it to make a quality grow light that will last. I can guarantee the only thing they are in it for is a quick dollar.

Yep. You have to be 4 steps ahead in this game, you cant do that by imitating as you will always be 1 step behind.

This is a joke. I've had a few people come to me after getting scammed thinking they were the real thing from them.

Did I say anything about you telling people not to buy these boards?
Calm the fuck down.
There will always be different sellers in a market

I would argue the same Airwalker - with my limited LED knowledge. Its easy to find drivers and lm/w is superp (if you are into lm/w)
3000k and 3500k are more or less the same, but the 3500k is a little bit more suitet to veg+flower (4000k and 5000k veg only) where 3000k (and 2700k) are more towards full flower - but both can be used for both veg, flower or veg+flower.

This is my understanding. Please correct me if I'm wrong

Some people veg+flower with 4000k also with great results. I think the ones I seen were with 90 cri though.

I got a test light from atreum. One of the 288 boards. Driver will be here on Friday. Will run some tests then.

I appreciate the seller giving away lights for tests. Dunno where he is going to sell these boards, if eu or us.

I would always go with strips

oh thx. That was hard from smartphone

Well I don't know about low quality, counterfeit boards.. They could very well be top bin diodes. I just am pretty sure that these guys are just in it for the quick cash. So I'm not thinking they are going to take the appropriate measures to ensure 100% top quality, aside from entrusting the supplier.

Look at Citizen cob spectrum 4000k 90cri. Bring on frost.

I seen it. I wasnt ever really dishing on the boards and am 100% happy they actually took the measures to prove they are using quality.
