I see a lot of growers using vertical bulb arrangements on here. What I've yet to see is a grower using a decent reflector, VERTICALLY, to ensure that the output of the bulb is all directed towards a nearby plant instead of some useless direction, like into a corner or a wall. I wonder how much such an approach might help?

I went ahead & bought the real Adjust-A-Wings awhile back & let me tell you I have been to many large warhouse type grows, the Adjust-A-Wings are the best IMO hands down, run them 1000k with Eye Super HPS bulbs :character0035:

I know first hand that the quality of that spesific knock of is very high and there is actually no really difference but for marketing cost for the name brand with this itme.. I have seen the knock off as I know the importer of the product coming inot b.c. and beileve be its totally worth it and its a far more realistic price.. they work great.. and the picture doestn do it justice.. you will not be disapointed.. these are killer.... and priced to be great sellers..
zero quality boost with the name brand trust me..

After further research I found that knock offs do not disperse heat the same and have hot spots. Adjusta's also have a coating that others don't. German engineered baby. Good luck to you all. :sun

The dimpled finish will throw more light than the cobble stone. The smaller the dimple the better.

I just looked at my adjustawing and it looks most like the stuff in your top picture, not the cobblestone pattern.

If you can get highly polished ceramic coated material, let me know where you're sourcing it from, as I'd like to build a few more of these myself! I also want to buy stuff that has no roughened texture at all, just mirror finished- so I can part my hair in the reflection if I want. I got some plans for stuff like that...

If anyone is interested in getting the knockoff Adjust a Wings, I have a few for sale. I have a room full of real Adjust A Wings and have compared it side by side. These are completely the same except for the socket. The pattern is exactly the same. PM me if you're interested I'm looking for $100 each + shipping for the large size.

I want the flat mirror polish stuff (still ceramic coated though) for another use besides reflectors. You see, I think people don't pay nearly enough attention to all that light leaving their growing area and I'm gonna use some of this stuff to make some 'bounce cards' and see if what's in my head makes any sense on the wall.
