1) 2 x HLG QB 132 v2 - new this year
2) Black Diamond Perfect Sun 500...I think they call it the Dwarf Sun now. Really love this light even though it is 3-4 years old, I only used it for one grow before this year.
I don’t think it is quite enough for 5 plants in a 4’ x 4’ tent so thinking about adding some and I also need some far red.

Not sure, but if it were me, I would not use the far red until flower..Unless you want somewhat faster veg (I think, but not sure)

I broke down and made my first LED purchase. Anybody have any experience with the dragonSL? Apparently these guys are the original inventors of the LED truck light bars when they first came out. Penske bought them out with the agreement they wouldn’t make vehicle LED vehicle lighting so they tweaked the I guess you’d call it “lens” for the diode if that’s what you call it. Sorry my LED knowledge is very small.

Commercial people have slimmer choices when choosing lights. Most of the inspectors will want them to be UL or ETL listed. If he doesnt he will at some point. Kind of limits your choices. Don't think their sole choice is the efficiency or the price. Sometimes you don't have a choice in this dept.

The main issue I have with all "name brand" led fixtures. Is that they charge way too much for their products.
I understand they need to make a profit too. But if I source out the parts myself, something I can make for under $100 sells for almost 400...
That I fear will keep me out of the "name brand" LED market.
