So I need to pull the trigger, I’ve done too much reading and just keep getting different suggestions. Well I’d like one last post about it.
so I want a quality led for a 5x5. I was looking at refurbished HLG Diablo scorpion. I don’t want to over spend but I want top notch lights.
My buddy suggested the chilled 1000, suggestions?
Photontek/lumatek Zeus 1000 has more even light distribution and you can use as few bars as you like, I love my Hlg but if I was buying now, Zeus 1000 all day.
Think I am going to try a few of these photontek 1000 pros. looked hard at the fohse as well. the fohse pull 1500 watts and cost about 2500 a pop the photontek 1000 pull a 1000 watts and cost 1525. Beleive this is worth trying, I wouldn't be able to run as many lights as we planned in this new room at 1500 watts a light. so many choices. led sure has come a long way in a short time.
I shopped around a bunch for a scorpion diablo before I pulled the trigger. The best price I could find was with growlightheaven.com, using coupon code HLG15. Brought it to just a couple hundred more than the refurbished models with the full 3 year warranty. I did also confirm with HLG they were an authorized retailer.
This is not a plug in any way, I still have yet to get mine (ordered it last Friday) but have tracking. I gain nothing from this post but just like to help out as I spent way too much time looking where to buy.
Ok, here is how you decide.
Write down each choice in its own corner on a sheet of paper.
Take a coin close your eyes and toss it up. Where it lands is the light you buy.
All your choices are good ones. Roll the dice.
I paid $1259 for my 1st Diablo, $1119 for my 2nd one, & $1100 for my 3rd & 4th. My buddy bought all 5 of his at the same time got them for $1050 each. All prices included shipping and tax. If your interested on how to get a similar price, send me a message and I'll let you know.
