When my vision returns I will try to get some pics up, but to give you an idea what it looks like I have included a pic:

I have a test going to see how much hotter the room gets. I turned off a 1k and turned on the 1.5k so we will see if the a/c can still hold room temp...

Yea, its too bright, I can't take pics. I'll have to get some at lights out. I do have some nice bleaching from where The plant got too close to a 1k a few weeks back. I did not remove the offending leaves and they have bounced back aside frim where the leaves were bleached. I would say I have 10 affected leaves on a plant with several thousand. My roots look great, all of the plants look great and have the nicest sheen on the leaves, tons of oil and goodness going on there.

Room temp up 1.3 degrees seems to be holding there.. Puts me about 78 degrees. Perfect actually with my 1250 ppm co2 :)

I thought it would've been bigger. Oh wait...is this a 1500 hps or mh?

I just got a 1k horti super blue mh and the thing is massive! lol it's the same thickness of the 1k on the ends but has a huge bulge in the middle. I'm thinking it might not fit in my hood...hmm I need to go check that out now...

I just looked them up and it's making me wanna get one to test out! Keep us updated on your test, bro! Good stuff indeed :) We'll probably see a few test grows since the equipment just came out. Looking forward to the final results.

edit: lost, can you still get these somewhere? I just saw on their website that the prototypes are sold out. lol I was just about to pull the trigger
