A couple weeks! A couple weeks! You sure know how to drag things out to build up the suspense...
should be flowering in a couple more weeks
happy holiday - when u return maybe u can explain your '3' year warr in detail - await your response
You’re quite familiar with the details of their warranty as you lament about it relentlessly.
maybe in southern calif asking a 'question' without getting an answer is 'lamenting' - to my mind a '3' year warr means just that... something goes wrong with a unit , it gets fixed - i understand the shipping part - but when u have to pay in addition to the shipping ,cost of part and a service fee (or whatever they call it) after 12 months... in my neck of the woods, that aint a '3yr warr'..
ofcourse i have no doubt that they are 'honest'....
Hey Unc….Thanks for your time , and hey.....not a bad gig for a free light huh .....thread for light.....win , win for all parties involved.....Hope the unit pulls a good Harvey for yas…..now.....totally agree on the silliness of side by sides since they really don`t prove anything with just 1 run since all new setups have learning curves and take time ta dial right ?…..plus.....
450 watts in a 5 x 5 tent is only 18 watts per sq ft , although Mars Hydro claims @ 12" above canopy , covering a 4 x 4 flowering area , it has the equivalent wattage of 800 watts of HID lighting , and that `s the equivalent of 50 watts per sq ft that`s always been the optimim sweet spot for dense hard nugs with the highest quality I ever ran IME....so....time will tell....hope she puts out for yas…..and then....
You`ve got a 4 x 8 area with 1200 watts @ 37.5 watts per with your HLG`s , but yet the 1000 watter in a 4 x 4 tent with 62.5 watts per sq ft that I`m sure is hard ta cool , so there`s a lotta variables involved just from different environmental factors alone , much less the different light sources from diodes to HPS bulbs ....
I do like the idea of being able to mount the Mars Hydro meanwell drivers outside the grow area during the dead of summer , but how much heat does it really put out compared to HID lighting....aight…..nuff outta my old ass this day.....Good luck Unc and thanks again for true documentation on advertised units on all your threads…..take care and....
Peace....DHF.... …..
does this have anything to do with my thread?
Well some side by side grows can be helpful. Like brother Issack's thread of 4 x 1000w vs 4 x 630 cmh. Same clone, same feed, to me it was a must read thread.

Hope you don't mind me dropping the ic link Unc.
Is it my dumbass from FLA......
Or is that link not working?????....
(Prolly just me....)....

Seems like they are locking of watering? downhearted. The light is TSW-2000, right?
learning curve...this lamp doesn't create quite the same level of water/nute demand as the hlg panels or a 1000w hps plus we had a little "cold" snap...or rather a couple of cool nights in a row so they have been staying much wetter than i'm used to...and i'm trying to keep them on the same watering schedule as the rest of the garden...They do look to be over watered in those two pic’s...
Maybe they were just watered before the pictures were taken...
