Hi all,

I was just wondering if it would be a viable solution to have 4-6 of these in a veg only tent. They offer warm and cool lights in 65W equivalent and in my area are often discounted via the local utility. Is it just not enough?

Cannot yet post a link, but if you google the text below, the first home depot link is them.

Greetings.
If I was going that route I would get 4-10 flood lights(LEDs), plug to socket adapters, power strips etc.

Or a19,a21 LED bulbs.
Good luck.

Better off going to a Batteries+Bulbs store and getting their 17W Spot floods. Or just ghetto DIY some COBs together.

You can do a ghetto 150W DIY COB build for under a hundred bucks..
