I don't know about those Apache Tech 120s... They use 120 1 watt light bulbs.
the 240 watt lights I was talking about, have 80 3 watt bulbs... from HTG Supply
Same here KD...I think these are a fine example of what has become a very good alternative to lighting as we know it...I'm no chemist or scientist or engineer...but for anyone using these 7 band from HTG...solely alone or at 6:1...will get great results...if not...it's for sure other issues going on, other than lights or spectrums...IMO....and please don't ask me to compare to the other brands or HPS/MH...I got those HOT sob's in most any wattage...they work fine in my room too...but it's not nite and day difference...I never expected my LED's to outperform anything I've used as far as yield...they weren't designed to surpass really...but they make it easier to manage enviormental issues in any garden...a lot less of other things cut back when using them ...make it as hard or as simple as you want...there's a zillion options I say...to each his own...I like to set it and forget it in my room... and not worry about the grow at all...when I start battling my garden you can guarantee it's because I have gotten more than I need to be successful with it or the beans were shit...I treat 100 plants as one simple pot, and never try to get more than the breeder of the seed intended under average conditions for them...I expect a little less anyhow...that's being realistic imo....I never see breeders telling, that you need this...or add a little more of that, or this at the end, as being required to be successful...average decent seed,dirt, water ,light...and no more...will fill any jar if kept in proportion...there's no
magic in a bottle or
light to grow good meds or make it produce 10 times more...start with a high yielder if that's your concern,and don't try to make an average yielder produce "Jack and the beanstalk "results with a damn light...it's not that easy...a waste in my book...for the time, money, headache, and effort you put forth in lights will net a min return at the end...it starts with simple and great seed for success period, and
nothing you can do will make them or any strain "Godzilla" yielders if they are not inherent of that to start with...LED's...wheewww..they tote a black eye for sure most anywhere they're mentioned with some peeps....they coming of age whether anyone likes it or not...just like flouro's and incadesent's in your home...LED's
will win in the end here over the old...better stock up on them energy wasting hogs if you plan on using them much longer...the cooperatives will make sure of that soon enough...either one keeps my jars full...so I have no worries there on when...what-ever they decide won't effect my peaceful time in the room one bit, or the level in my jars...I do guarantee simple, and LED will work for anyone wanting successful grows/harvest in their gardens...Example taught me years ago from a ranking factory auto engineer which rings so true still...most importantly he said..."never forget the
basics of your trade here and you'll be highly appraised/rewarded in the job force...never let hype or education detur you from these being in ck first and foremost...Intake, Compression, Fire, Exhaust...your running/perfomance issue will
always be with one of these...no matter the make, HP, number of cylinders, or cubic in... etc...with all the computers and space-age designs/enhancements available in the world,
none can replace
any of these 4 in a naturally aspirated internal combustion engine of any kind...but they can and will
enhance it's performance"....dirt track, paved track, moon, or mars...it's up to you where you going with it....same applies in your garden....seed. decent dirt, water, light.....get the picture....I use um...and they work fine...I'm cross the neg shit you hear...B
