I have a total of BP1500 bought one at a time and like them more and more. A 3k or 4 k may be in the future. Regardless, wouldn't buy any other led at this point for price and quality.
Look into kingbrite. Better quality and more cost-effective than anything on amazon.
i would have agreed but i keep seeing prices like $180 shipped. Most amazon copies are from the same factory and cost $200 delivered. I would pay the extra $20 and deal with amazon.
Yeah I thought about Kingbrite and even went with Alibaba for my flower light. But the light from amazon was returnable for 120 days at the time and here in one day.i would have agreed but i keep seeing prices like $180 shipped.

So @MIMedGrower ive gotten a lot of info from the great people here but yours has been spot on consistently, and I catch a lot of your other comments on multiple forms when I'm sifting for information. What's your opinion on the light if you had 350 to buy any light what would it be. Your crop shows your knowledge as well as reeferRons and thats what I look for. Mouth will say anything but results show. I respect all my fellow farmers opinions because anyone can grow it but to grow a plant to its full potential takes skill and thats why we are all here after all right? To learn and give knowledge and help those who are learning. So once again I appreciate everyone's 2c because its all trial and error right?

Plus IDK if you can find 300watts for $230 shipped even straight from China?
Amazons return policies keep me coming back...120 days I coulda almost grown a whole crop and still returned it if I didn't like the results...that's what sold me.
My flower light... I took the risk and ordered from Alibaba...Best $650 I ever spent.
3 - BP1500 in 4x4.
Seriously?thats great but we can grow plants under a cfl. You didnt even show the lights.

If I had seen the same models with the same heat sinks on amazon, I'd be inclined to agree. But most of the amazon ones in that price range have those cheap aluminum pie plate heat sinks.
I'd grab a cmh, can get a nice one for that, like the phantom with remote ballast and huge hood
I was super uneasy about buying a Chinese knockoff, I too am or was a HPS/MH guy for many years and the only reason I decided to change was that the wife said no more running an separate A/C in the basement just for the plants..The only way I could see around that was going LED.That seems real nice.
yeah but the cheap finned ones are not much better are they?. 2.5ml thick from most budget lamps.

I'm disabled and on a fixed income so I was in awe at the prices for some of these LED lights...highway robbery I tell ya. Even the $1000 I invested on the new lights was a nail biting affair ...lol
The reason I did go with the light is over on another forum (RIU), a guy was using these lights and had great results..after doing some research and discussing the pros and cons with him, I went for it.
Still my first grow with the new lights, but so far I'm happy as a hippy in a dope farm! The plants are I would say right on schedule with the old bulbs with even shorter internodal spacing... I'm at week 5 flower now and like I said I'm happy with the results so far.
So nice not having to worry about heat. I cant attest to yield or potency yet as I haven't got that far, but the plants flowers are getting fat and frosty so I think I'm good.
