    California LightWorks "Solarstorm" LED Light

    Doups3 Great Link. The link contained the picture of the 5 w diode ... though not a great shot. ill have to do a bit more research on the existence of a 5 watt diode. But have to say, while I have not yet been converted to the technology or become a loyal fan of any brand currently out there...

    a different take on led lights--your thoughts

    The aquarium dudes are really into their lights. I only recently learned coral grows by photosynthesis, and getting the lite through water is a problem... but those dudes are just as committed to growing coral as some of us are at growing herb! I like what he's done with the light FOR AN...

    a different take on led lights--your thoughts

    at what distance below the conventional led lights are they achieving their spectrum?I would speculate that it would depend, somewhat. on the angle of the lens but would assert, if designed properly, the full spectrum would be realized within inches of the unit. his lights are designed around...

    a different take on led lights--your thoughts

    By 50 watt diode you mean a diode configured to hold some multiple of 1, 2 or 3 watt bulbs correct? I have personally never seen LED frequency rated in degrees kelvin (k). What spectrums does the referenced 100 watter cover. Please post a picture for clarification and to satsify my...

    a different take on led lights--your thoughts

    Are you stating you have seen a SINGLE 100 watt LED or multiple LEDS encapsulated in single unit making the single unit capable of reaching the 100watts? If you are saying you have seen a SINGLE 100 watt LED I would love to see a link. I have an extremely limited knowledge of LED but I have...

    California LightWorks "Solarstorm" LED Light

    Michael Dallen I had the same question. I just went to their web sit and read the page on efficiency myths where hey state ... "Compare this to a Black Dog LED. Our lights use actual 3w LEDs and pull up to 2.5 watts per LED bulb" which leads me to believe they are using two 3w LEDs...

    California LightWorks "Solarstorm" LED Light

    Doups3 "The light is super heavy! It weighs 40 pounds." I would guess that the EIGHT separate power supplies has a lot to do with the weight. Not sure if running 8 power supplies is a good thing.... guess the fact that if one went on the blink it would not kill the whole unit is good. BUT...

    which led light should i buy? growers with led experience only please.

    Smurfer You raise an issue that I have often wondered about ... the need for fans to cool an LED fixture. I am by no means an electrical engineer or considered an expert in LEDs (see my thread on the Science of LEDs for my lack of qualifications). However, I would think that a properly...

    Science of LED Lighting

    I hit them with my question and think they provided a very detailed answer ... still trying to decypher it all (kind of like Jethro - not real good a cyphering). BUT on the surface, it makes sense. What do you guys that are more experienced & smarter than me think of the response? Is this an...

    Science of LED Lighting

    Latest post from the 'cyber think tank' fellas .... They post some interesting info. Just seems like not often enough. Maybe, like other research / academic brainiacs they spend too much time at the library or on the computer BUT, maybe this commitment to a weekly post will fix that...

    Science of LED Lighting

    tatoojim and/or Baker: what do you mean by "led = to a 1000watt hps is fucking outragous"? willy led wonka: what do you mean by "trying to line the oversaturation of light and plant bleaching/burning issues"? Are you saying LEDs generate too much light? What do you mean by...

    Science of LED Lighting

    Contacted the site and have to admit they were very quick to respond. They seem to very knowledgeable and genuinely interested in my questions. But I don't even know enough about lights to ask the right questions. From what they told me, I would describe them as sort of a 'cyber think tank'...

    Science of LED Lighting

    Have never tried LED Lighting BUT have been giving it some thought and, consequently doing a lot of research. During my research I came across a site I thought might be of interest to the 'educated LED grower' .... for me, it is kind of Light Science 101 and a lot for me to absorb. So any help...

    Freezing BHO

    Putting my oil in vials has gotten to be a royal pain in the ass ... experience has not made this chore any easier. So the other night I tried an experiment. After purging I placed the pyrex dish in the deep freeze and let the oil freeze over night. Then I scraped it into a pile of frozen...

    Material for Making Various Cannabis Concentrates

    Harvest time is near and this year I have decided to try my hand at some extraction methods. I have read several threads & tutorials but have one question... how to best process my trim / popcorn buds for various extraction processes. I know prime bud is the preferred material and if the...

    12w x 16L x 9h

    "Use Bottled C02 to help cool. ONLY run C02 at night." Plants utilze CO2 as part of the photosentisis process which occurs when light is present. I believe the most efficient use of CO2 occurs with lights on. Venting your lights with air drawn from outside the flower room and exhausted...

    low temps at nite

    I too am a northern tier gardner with a taste for Kali Mist. While I can understand the anxiety associated with cool night temps ... if I let that stop me, I would never be able to hook up with my Kali Ladies. Snow, sub-freezing temps and clandestine rippers are the true enemies Great time...
