what do you guys think of these @NEW 225 LED Hydroponic Plant Grow Light Panel Red/Blue on eBay (end time 10-Mar-10 23:10:52 GMT) im not talking about LED growlights in general, these exact ones, you think they will work or just be a pos just made to make money?
waste of money....check out the top link in my sig to see some real LED lights or look at Weezard's who made his own and there are a few others who have some good lights bit those are POS...piece of shit!:jointsmile:
yeaaah thats what i thought.
thanks.
i know im being a complete noob but what are your thoughts on this 105w Red Spectrum 2700k CFL grow light lamp bulb B22 BC on eBay (end time 12-Mar-10 16:20:08 GMT)
many here use CFL very successfully but here is my recommendation for a low cost LED bulb that will work in a small cab...it is only $42! :thumbsup:
High Power Hydroponic PAR38 42 LED Grow Light 85 - 260V - eBay (item 220568901137 end time Mar-12-10 02:06:05 PST)
your plants will be much happier with a good LED spectrum here is a picture of a friends plants in a 2'x3' space vegged for 6 weeks in 1 gal containers using 2 bulbs with a total of 25 watts!:D
BloomBoss Spot 15w LED Grow Light Red/Blue Hydroponics - eBay (item 230446616840 end time Mar-14-10 19:08:22 PDT)

sorry i didn't mention this before but unless they say what wattage the
LED's are then you are getting ripped !
Just so you know, those are mostly clustered 1w diodes in the higher-watt packages. It is RARE to find 3w or 5w single-chip emitters.Quote:

Once you start linking the diodes together, you start introducing resistance, and thus power efficiency begins to drop.
In short, more powerful != better.
