Hey Everybody

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the GlowPanel 45? Im looking at getting some sort of LED system and the 45 seems like a good low cost option for the size of my box. Im really attracted to the fact that it only uses 28 some odd watts and my electric bill is goin up by the day... The specs from Greners dot com says that it puts out lumens equivalent to a 250 watt HID system... Not so sure about this but would like a second opinion!

Thanks

I have posted on these twice. Don't get one. The light output is fine, but the power supplies are not current limited and are notorious for burning out and taking the LEDs with them. I had one replaced and still have two dead ones.

I have a triband 120w with three cooling fans and it has worked very well.
