Nice to see that people here are experimenting with this kind of lights. Over here not many people are trying or using this yet....
I'm thinking about to set up a small room or tent with these new
Dimlux fullspectrum (fullfixture)
The downside for me or the most people over here is that these lights are extremely exspensive and added to that is that with these lights u should get higher quality weed but here they don't really pay that much more for it (sad conclusion) If they would people would be more willing to invest over $1000 for one light.
All tho I'm curious and I like to try something new.
Here the specs for the ones who never saw this model,

Dimlux Expert Series - 2 x 315w CDM (Ceramic Metal Halide) - Full Spectrum
Dimlux Ceramic-Discharge Metal Halide systems deliver a spectrum that’s much closer to natural sunlight than typical high intensity discharge (HID) systems. These state-of-the art lamps generate a greater level of useable plant light (photosynthetically active radiation) and run with a blinding intensity that's immediately apparent to the naked eye. The lamp is optimised for the bloom phase with enhanced reds, but, because it's full-spectrum, it will produce the goods in both veg and flower – expect to see increased growth rates, tighter internodes, an improvement in overall vigour and an increase in final weight. Come harvest time, you'll be left wondering what you did without one!

- Highly efficient - puts out 1.9 micromole (umol) per watt of electricity
- Extremely high PAR levels
- Full fixture – lamp, ballast and reflector!
- Alpha 98 reflector with single bounce clearsight (SBCS) technology
- Fully Maxi Controller compatible
- Adjustable output levels from 165w to 380w

1 x Dimlux Expert 2 x 315w CDM system (lamp, ballast and reflector), 4m power cable
Dimlux Expert Series - 2 x 315w CDM (Ceramic Metal Halide) – Full Spectrum
Dimlux CDM fixtures utilise ceramic-discharge metal halide lamps to produce a light spectrum that’s much broader than other forms of HID lighting (like standard metal halides and HPS). Its output is more comparable to the light produced by LEP (light emitting plasma) units. LEPs actually have a slightly broader spectrum than the CDM fixture, but they simply do not compare in terms of brightness. You can see with your own eyes, as soon as you turn this
Dimlux unit on, that its every bit as bright as its equivalent wattage in HPS, giving you the best of both worlds – a unit that delivers an LEP-style spectrum combined with HPS-style intensity! A truly exceptional all-rounder that will add much to the quality and size of your harvest.
Output levels can be switched between the following settings: 165w, 205w, 245w, 280w, 315w, 345w, 380w. With 7 settings, you have the flexibility to tailor your lighting to your plants demand based on environmental conditions in the grow area, ensuring that temperature stay well within range.
Because its full-spectrum, it’s also great for the vegetative stages, triggering rapid growth, speeding up turnover times and increasing the overall efficiency of your indoor garden. With a healthy level of blue/white light (at roughly 5000k to 6000k) internodes stay nice and tight, eliminating the issues with stretch that occur when using lighting with narrow, inadequate spectrums.
Everything is included to get you started, with lamp, ballast and reflector all rolled into one package.
This unit is fully compatible with the
Dimlux Maxi Controller. You can daisy chain up to 160 of these systems using speaker wire and control their on and off times centrally - no need for contactors and timers! Just power the system directly from the mains and let the Maxi Controller take care of the rest. You'll then have access to an extensive range of features and you'll be able to automatically regulate lighting according to VPD (vapour pressure deficit). VPD gives us a much clearer picture of how the environment is effecting plants, describing the difference in vapour pressure between the plants themselves and the air around them. By using this measurement to reduce output levels when necessary, you'll ensure that transpiration rates stay optimal at all times. The stomata on the underside of each leaf will then stay open, ensuring that photosynthesis is completely optimal at all times. The effects are nothing short of amazing!

Simply hang the combined ballast & reflector over the centre of the grow-space at an appropriate height using easy rolls or jack chain. Run the 4.0m kettle lead from the reflector to a standard UK mains outlet or your contactor and switch on."
Kind regards,

Ps; I will make a grow report when I have these toys.
