[yahooman]

Looking at both these lamps,im totally new to led growing and have just about zero info.....these 2 lights are in my price range and will cover a 4x4 area for flowering.anyone with experience using either or both lights would be appreciated.
Im in canada and if anyone has suggestions of another brand with similar wattage id like to hear about it...also any good sales online in canada.
Thank you

Neither........ Add 60 bucks to your budget and get a Viparspectra KS5000...... $360 on amazon.......This will blow those one's out of the water...... hands down a better quality unit.

Out of stock everywhere in canada.
There is a 4000 on ebay for $600 SHipped,but a bit too expensive

Theres a reason its sold out , I'd say be patient and set up notifications for when it gets back in stock, usually they drop about every 10 days or so in the us, i'd assume its the same in canada

It's not actually a 600w light. In those days, they would say 600w, meaning it could replace one. It's actually 260w. If they spoke of actual LM or PPFD it would be helpful, but they say nothing of the lights output. Marketing that again, you couldn't get away with now.

That 5000 light, is actually 500w. It's not like a pair of these 600s though, as it's using decent LEDs. It could easily be like 3 of the older units. Which we must remember, are old enough to of died of natural causes. How long they have left, is anyone's guess.

Don't walk away. Run.


We just had a big thread with poll, about what we got, and how it lasted. IIRC Spider Farmer are worth a look.

With a 4x4 to cover, you do need to think 600w+ so the lights so far, have not been good enough.
