ledgrower Reviewed by ledgrower on 04-21-2006. LED grow lights... input please. Hello guys, I'm exchanging eMails with a representative from a LED company. I asked him if they could produce a custom light for growing, and here's what he told me: Our options are as follow: 940nm, 850nm, 660nm, 630nm, 610nm, 590nm 570nm, 530nm, 510nm, 470nm, 460nm, 400nm and a total of 64 LEDs in the bulb.

I got my new LED box finished today, it's fuckin awesome. I'll be moving the girls into their new home after their dark cycle is over. I should have some valid test results for you guys in the coming days/weeks.

MonkeyRacket,

Nice setup, can't wait to see how they come out.

BTW: For those building their own, here is a useful link I found.

What about the blues? Are they ok?

PJF: Your angle pread is too wide on those LEDs. I think you should be using a narrower angle for most of those lights around 15º should be okay.

Now I can say::: I love you.

Thanks for the pics.

I was told that as long as the mcd rating is high at high angle, they are MORE powerful than a 15 angle.

Example.
660nm, 4000mcd 15 degree angle.
660nm, 4000mcd, 100 degree angle.

This means that I am still getting 4000mcd spread further across the plants. Not in that narrow angle, so in theory those light a more than 4x stronger.

OK, I apologize...don't think I ever read this...still haven't, but I am going to. I breezed through 1st page and don't know where this is going...so, here goes.

Turtle...I want a bigass one with blue and red/full spectrum and I want a green one so I can go play in my room during the 'dark' photoperiod.

Once I read the thread, this request will probably be moot...
gotta go, bro, lw
