Mean well HLG 240H-C1400B is the driver im using per 5 Vero29 90 CRI D (3000k) cobs,using 15 cobs over each 4x5 area,
Ive been trimming for 4 hrs the past 4 days and have 2 plants left.
I have to say the colas under the Cobs are bigger.Without a doubt there is no comparison.My wife and my helper both agreed without a doubt.Trichs and color were the same as CMH.I have some pictures i will upload later
Are you using the 36 volt or the 29 volt veros?

Awesome thread you got going here Heisenbubble .

Can i ask what was the ballast and hood used bud for cmh.im bloody lost
to what 315 fixtures i should use for my 5x5 room for 4 plants
My eyes lit up when you mentioned you are going to use an 1000w cmh fixture
I havnt been able to find much on these if they are reliable etc.would b perfect
for my small area..
Cheers Max

Really..i had a geezer of the sunplix bout a week ago..is this the one that runs the 1000w/630 w hps ,mh and cmh ..or is it a stand alone 1000w cmh fixture..im in aust bud..it would b a better alt if i can get an 1000w cmh .i dont see much about them when googling,specially bout the bulbs being used and there reliability...a 1000w cmh would kick the shit out of a hps same wattage i gather?

Some Cob CMH comparisons.
Colas pulled directly from under the lights.No cross lighting whatsoever on any of these.'Like i said the comparisons are barely noticeable.Cobs produced about 30 percent more bud than the 2 CMH.I believe it would take 3 315's to compare to 700 watts of COB.

Hi mate, yes that's it. It's 1000w de CMH, but will also run HPS and MH bulbs. plus it has a dimming feature if you want to run it at less power. Better light spectrum and less heat than HPS, plus it runs more efficiently I believe saving power costs. We're just getting them here in the UK now, the first units are arriving in next cpl of weeks and once they're here they will be available in Europe as well. Are you in Austria or Australia? Lol if you're in Australia then you're in luck mate coz I know ppl are already using the Sunplix over there. If you're in Europe then drop me an email and I'll be able to tell you where you'll be able to get these from, because I know the people importing them :)

Hell I'd like to know more about this double ended ceramic metal halide LEC light. That I don't seem to be able to find.
Where you based mate? You can google SUNPLIX to find their US site, or if you have insta you can check out their page and see all their products in use by different ppl. If you're in the UK or Europe then pm me and I can tell you where you'll be able to get them from very soon. That goes for anyone else interested in Sunplix units in the Uk and Eu :cool:

Growers Choice has a 945 watt ceramic metal halide bulb but it's a veg bulb 3200k. No flower bulb yet.

I know Sunplix have 1000w de bulbs in 3k, 4K and 3k H/O (which I think is same as 3kr) I have the data sheets from testing, so I know these bulb options are definitely available.

Lol, not quite dude. What's difference between what ive said and what Toaster said? I was simply telling ppl what ive found about available 1000w de CMH units and what ones are around since following and seeing the results of this thread. I've got a 630w unit but have wanted a 1000w de since Mr Heissenbubble first mentioned the Nanolux in this thread. The Sunplix seems to be the best unit at the best price imo, and with lots of ppl already using them from what I see on insta. Its only my opinion and only for others who were asking about 1000w cmh units and where theyre available as they couldnt find any.. I wish I did work for Sunplix though! Lol

Hey sorry this is random. Can’t figure out how to start my own thread.. I’m brand new here. So long story short, buddy brought over some bag seed plants that he didn’t have space for (5 gal pails) and I tossed em in a discreet ass spot in the yard and watered them once in a blue moon.. Then they got big.. and hector af. So I broke out the nasty old 400 watt hps street light and greasy ol 400 watt MH and brought em inside... couple o fans blastin.. dehumidifier at night. problem is I did not mark the calendar when I started em flowering.. (I know right) no idea where I’m at if anyone cares to guess. Could be fun. I’m guessing week seven. Also things be getting hector round these parts and I’m battling humidity. Chop or don’t chop..
