my reasoning behind going LED was the total waste of electricity that even my highly efficiently bright wing fluorescent was making (110W), and not forgetting the highly suspiciously orange/yellow glow I'm forced to have emanating from my wardrobe. Lol - Itā??s a nightmare!

IF these LED lights do what they are claiming to do (http://www.solaroasis.com/grow_shop....0Professional), then I'll be willing to convert some pounds to dollars and purchase from the US, but I cant understand why there arenā??t any UK distributors yet.

If I go online looking for good and honest personal reviews by customers about LED grow lights, there arenā??t any, just a lot of speculation - which, although more is always welcome, is no substitute for a real trial.

I'm not going to put these things down right away, because I have studied LED tech and know about what is poss. If these are good/get good enough (which is inevitable really), then all other grow lights will be obsolete, making all those ballasts and other things obsolete too; all those air cooled HIDS and all those range of products will go. It will mean grow projects can happen more out in the open in a house, rather than confind to some sellar, or spare room (in could be in the corner, behing a curtain), because the light the plant absorbs, we humans are not sensitive to (unlike the onslaught of light given off by flouresents and HIDs) and thatā??s why Iā??m really interested!
