Look's like you got in there pretty good for being in a time crunch, mayne. Ready for take-off! We are neck and neck on our current grows (I'm on day 19 over here). Fun times, G.

Day 35, things comin along, not sure if I have a preference yet but the frost seems a lil mo thick on the mars side so far… mars has less stretch as well. Keep in mind the mars light is 40w less than the growers choice.

Do you think it's the distribution of LED types ( I'm only assuming they have different quantities and types ) that cause the differences you are seeing?

What version is your 6500?. Mine uses bridgelux dioids. The new version uses Samsung. Steller results from the Mars FCE-6500.. Pleased with the results im getting.

have the smaller unit in both variants Bridlux and Samsung.
They sure seem to run neck in neck.
Would have no second thoughts at all about going with bridgelux.
again in the future.

I got the one with the samsung diodes. Running other leds side by side I havent noticed any difference between the samsung and other brands, I think its more a selling point than anything.

I should have paid more attention to the 1st post lol.. It shows a FC6500 my bad.. The main difference is the FC is foldable whereas the FCE is not but the bars can be moved to any position. FC uses Samsung , FCE uses Bridgelux. The biggest difference is the prices. I tested a GC 400 but 1 of the bar LEDs stopped working.
