Thats very interesting regarding testing wattage. I've been very happy with my leds to date so haven't considered testing what their true wattage is, but might do just for interests sake. Its not terribly surprising to me though that Chinese made appliances are not what they seem - its a shame all the same yeah.

Can I ask Omni what distance you have your young plants from your leds? I have a low height vege area and occassionally the taller ones get a touch of light bleaching, and I don't think its the PL-L thats in there with them. Just curious.
