There are about 20 different UFO lookin' lamps out there. Many are manufactured using cheap parts by folks with no regard for Western intellectual property rights or any scruples as far as "truth in advertising" goes. People buy these lights, figger out they done been lied to, and wash their hands of leds forever after. Tell all their friends "leds no workee."

Unless you know what emitters are in the unit (and how they're being driven) you are stuck taking the mfg.'s word for what you're buying. Chinese opportunists have poisoned pets and babies by artificially boosting protein levels in rice protein and milk products with melamine, among other scandalous behavior. You wanna trust them for a hort light? Who's gonna enforce a complaint against 'em, the BBB? What's your recourse? Protest in front of their embassy? :angry3:

I think folks are ready to start some "gutshot" threads of the various UFO ripoffs exposing what components are actually in the various units. :thumbsup: It ain't usually what they claim, trust me. Procyons are the only pre-fab units I'd feel confident buying at this point, except for huge-money T1 Smart lamps and comparable legit pro hort setups.

Just my .02. Just hate to see folks git took advantage of by liars. That's what our own politicians are for. Hermie.
