Whoo man what a salty thread this is.
Reminds me of the time I was in Cabelas and saw a Stevens 350 pump shotgun on the rack and noticed hey, looks like an ithica 37!
Made in sun city machine factory, China, But exactly the same as an Ithica 37. Only real differences were the fact that they didnt design it, it was stolen technology, inferior craftsmanship and less than half the price of a real used ithica 37. Also a bit heavier due to the steel reciever where the ithica was aluminium. Oh.. Couldnt slam fire it like I can my Ithica either.. So the chinese actually engineered that "problem" out of the design.
Did i buy it? You bet I did, and it goes bang every damn time. One of my favourite shotguns actually.
My takeway from the analogy is that sometimes cheap and shoddy works if its what you can afford. And a TON of people simply cant afford to drop $1500+ to light up a 4x4 tent.
Are the SF lights inferior to HLG or Gavita? Lol of course, but will it grow weed? From what ive seen so far, yeah.. probably will. If you can afford the high end American made LED lights go for it, but a lot if not most homegrowers simply can't afford them.
Myself, Ill stick to the time tested HPS/MH combo.
HID FTW!
