New 400w Induction light vs. 1000w HPS
Tank was just blessed by the light gods who saw to it he inherited a nearly new 1000W digital adjustable convertible (lots of bulls___) HPS light because my grow bro with way too much money decided he had to try a new induction light! He got a 400w for 1250 bucks...the 1000 was prolly around 330. The 1000 weighs well, not enough to bother weighing! The 400 weighs about 53 lbs fully rigged. That's pretty heavy on his little flimsy tent poles! We have safeties on it, just in case! The 400 is also very large and nearly fills up the space above the canopy in his 5x5 tent and is prolly 4'x3.5' with reflectors on. the 1000 is very compact... a 6" tube by about 30" long. I will get the exact electrical details and break it down to actual wattage. I know the 1000 is rated @ 11Amps and only draws 8.8A @ 120V. I don't know the exact data on the new 400, so I will have to check on it. I do know the entire purpose was to lower the electric bill with the 400 so we shall see what happens. We are growing out some of my AK-47 strain in dirt for comparison purposes as we have both had plenty of experience with this strain. I will let ya'll know how it grows! Stay tuned!
