I'm writing this to let people know about our grow light experiences over the last year where you can avoid the expensive mistake we made with some LED lights that we had tried. But on the bright side we found something that was even better!
We've been growing indoor for about 10 years and have used HID, florescent and LED while spending a boat load of money to buy, operate and maintain. About 3 months ago we met some guys in san diego that were using a high frequency generator for an induction lamp that we saw the results they were getting and agreed to try it. They had alot of engineering they went over with my BF and had done several grows that they had showed us pictures of before we invested in two of their lights.
I can only say that now that our grow is complete I can honestly say that up until now nothing we have ever used has done as well as these lamps. They produced virtually no heat, let one fixture do what used to take a combination of higher wattage and less efficient (we replaced our old HID lamps every 2-3k hrs) metal halide and HPS and flowered beautifully.
While the fixtures were a bit more expensive then HID they were 1/2 the price of the LED fixtures we tried and those LED fixtures were a complete waste! We had LED lamps burning out within the first month and the mfg told us we had installed them wrong! What BS! Maybe it was just this particular LED mfg but it really pissed us off.
Has anyone else tried induction yet? I took pictures if anyone wants to see them
