theoretical super duper reflection chamber

[harmonicminor]

Side and floor reflection is a LOT better than no relfection at all. Your tests were incomplete because you never added what most people have which is side and floor reflection. Try it and you'll see what I mean. Goodluck with your theory though. It would be great if it did in fact made a difference.

due to the nature of the exponential light drop off I think by the time the light bounces off 2 surfaces and then back to your plants It will be greatly diminished in comparison to 1 bounce.
heres a pic of what I mean
If I hold the reflectors any farther then I cant see any light hitting bottom of the plants at all
I can quickly adjust and aim the reflected light also

I tried bouncing light at more of an angle and what do you know??? It captures the light that is going down and bounces it back to the plant better. now if the plants were arranged in a circle under the lamp you could use a center reflector that bounces light out in a circle to the plants and have walls on the outside of them Rating: 5

same thing but with mirrors
I know I know, mirrors suck in lumens like a sponge but......
I see more visible reflected light for some strange reason

another shot

anyone can see it works (i suggest you do a light quality study - your own pics are excellent starting point- determining the amount of light reflected for promotional purposes) . now what u have to do is get it smaller (more compact for shipping) make sure its made of decent materials) and ez for nubes like me to use...LOL did i mention im a retired mkt director? PM me and ill give you my email and remember LARGER things have been started on MUCH less....good work!

[harmonicminor]

how do I pm you?

and....did u ever see my brain enhancing protoplasmic based serum? *lights another spliff*

lol just kiddin

you got mail :-)

LOOks good yea I think that would work

Well I will try again ADJUST THE PARABOLIC SO IT GIVES A WIDE EVEN LIGHTING. It will take some time to do this but my room was only 13 x18 feet. on a suncircle and produced .468 g/w/m Its a real bitch to adjust the light because of the type of bulb , the mounting bracket. Note this picture, and remember its running on a suncircle, so the far edges 6-10 feet away will get even lighting when the suncircle get there.

whats up harmonic, check out my new "chili" box, the reflectivity is awesome.
