Two 315s in a 4 x8 you say?
That stretches the 3' footprint that they recommend doesn't it?
How high above the canopy are you?
Two 315s in a 4 x8 you say?I'm runn
I'm running two 315s in a 4x8...3100k Phillips agro bulbs,I'm getting totally different accents coming through,on plants I've grown all year..the growth is different,the smell,there's lots of cool points.ive had deficiancys.but I'm not gonna blame the 3100k bulbs,as I'm being idle at the moment,new job,so its probably me.
If I use a conversion kit for a 315 and stick with the standard horizontal reflective hoods that are more rectangular than the vertical hoods that come with the standard 315 kits , which tend to be more square, that should give a better footprint right? More rectangular?
yeah mate,far from ideal,but I don't really use the ends of the tent.have tea brewing one end,and fans on upside down buckets the other.lol. But,like I say,just testing at the moment bro.will add some led to next run.im loving them though,real cool spectrum..Two 315s in a 4 x8 you say?

I've heard vertical hoods are best.gonna get some round parabolics eventually ,with vert holders....If I use a conversion kit for a 315 and stick with the standard horizontal reflective hoods that are more rectangular than the vertical hoods that come with the standard 315 kits , which tend to be more square, that should give a better footprint right?

3x3 coverage I've read somewhere.from a Phillips site..I am positive it would take 3 315's regardless of reflector. They are more like a 400w hps not even for footprint each. 2.7' x 2.7' on average

Yup. A good price, similar to the prisms but without the cord. Shouldn't need that should I? Isn't it the same cord as a Phantom 600 hps? Or is it specific to the Cmh ballast? Looks the same.The large facilities running 315s run them at 5 per 4x8,I know that sounds Overkill but their yields back it up.I think at least 3 over a 4x8 would do well for most of us while cutting electrical in 1/2.
Never seen the Illuminati ballasts jmg,they are priced well.
got a link??? Sounds interesting...Anyone else hear rumblings about a major bulb company announcing a hps/ cmh combo bulb....?
you can now get 630 ballast with two separate reflectors,one each side of the ballast...sunplix do a nice one,remote ,and dimmable.Don't forget we dont have to hang multiple 315's anymore. My wall was filling up quick with 315 ballast. I went with 5 630 DE CMH lights.. If you can get wholesale pricing there not expensive.
