I don't want to be a downer but you could use a 400w HPS with 2 plants and grow way more than you need for personel use and your electric bill along with your start up cost would be way less, plus a 400w doesnt put off an incredible amount of heat. Just my 2cents.:wtf:
Check out this LED flashlight. Also uses CREE LED's which are the same as the Procyon 100:

LED's will get better and cheaper. LED's are way cooler than old fashioned lights.
:D
Dang, missed out on the $549 Procyons from indoor agriculture. Seems that was just a 'black friday' special which ran a little longer than that weekend due to some server issues they were having. Hopefully they'll drop the price permanently sometime soon!
What kind of light timer are you using? does the Procyon 100 have a built in timer?
The light shipped (finally) yesterday fedex ground.
The timer I use is a $4.95 timer from Lowe's.

I doubt there is a built-in timer, but with any multi-light setup u want seperate timer ne way.

CREE has recently announced (Nov 18, 2008) they can achieve 170 Lumens per Watt (lpw).
I don't know what the lpw's are on the XLamps, but I suspect they are more than the 55w panels. Would be interesting to know. Of course red led's aren't rated the same as white light used for human illumination.
Al interesting and recent developments though.
That timer is only for 2 prong plugs is it not? Light is prob 3 prong since most everything of any size is going 3 prong grounded these days. Digital 3 prong grounded timer at Walmart $12 and duel outlet type $16.
Procyon arrived. Need to locate some seeds or clones and get things set up. Anyone in San Clemente or Orange County who has some deals on clones, please let me know. I will probably head to CCR in LA to try to get some Grape Ape seeds or clones if I can. I just can't find Grape Ape here in OC and have found it's my favorite.
