If the light it emits is multi colored, like red, blue or whatever they're not the best. The only multi colored light I'd use is the hans panel. COB is the way to go. And only go with top bin by a good brand that's ran way below it's wattage300 and 600 were both loaned out to me. I'm sure they are junk. I will need to locate manufacturer tags to answer that question. I'm hoping after a run or two I will be upgrading. I'll post a pic of them once I'm home in the garden tonight. About to be finished with this exhaust and transplanting my poor neglected ladies. The 300 they've been vegging under has seem to do the trick so far. I may use the 300 and 600 in flower tent and set up another light for veg tent. Who knows. Lol.
I'm old school and just getting hip to the LED tech. I'll look into cob for the future. This is first real organized indoor. I've messed around with small my, hps, and flour. This is first LEDs and they were loaned to me. I didn't want to be picky. Lol. I want to hone my abilities then upgrade lights as needed. Any good reference for solid LED reviews and not promotional blogs?If the light it emits is multi colored, like red, blue or whatever they're not the best.

Hard to upgrade your abilities with out proper light... that being said, i can grow a plant with a box of matches!I'm old school and just getting hip to the LED tech.

I've read a few things about mods to lights and people building fixtures. I'm a diy guy. Sure man. Share the info.Hard to upgrade your abilities with out proper light... that being said, i can grow a plant with a box of matches!
Plc, area 51, timber to name a few but better to build yourself. All it is, is two wires, COB, reflector (not really needed, just for light pattern) , power supply, fan and a heatsink. I can send you links and walk you through the process. It's really freaking simple. Basic electrical knowledge is a plus but again not needed. One connects the plus symbols the other connects the negative. Use a thermal paste to attach COB to heatsink or tape.
Most of the info is freaking pathetic, of course I'll get bashed for something but Google anything I said and you'll find that it's true

This a good cob, get 4000k run the whole grow, get top bin. The bin location is in the product number, I guess you call it?
Bin is reference to the quality.

You won't necessarily need this one so get your Cob and see what wattage it runs off, match that to your power supply. Get power supply that pushes 60%of recommended.
Get two 14gauge wires, like black and red, solder your connections. Probably need a 120v plug.
