To be honest, genuine QB's are only made and sold through HLG and a couple sister sites. All others are a knockoff of HLG's Quantum Boards. A buddy of mine ordered through alibaba and had a driver fail and has to pay shipping and paypal fees back now to have it replaced.

I hear HLG is a pain in the ass to work with but they do honor there warranty. At least that’s what I hear. Lol

I was using the Mars SP250 for a few grows. It is a good choice for budget growers like me.

It's Definitely more than enough I run mine in a 4x4 sealed room with CO2 but it come with a potentiometer so you can run it from 60w to 620w. Imo it's perfect for a 4x4 and will do a 5x5.

right on. I would rather have too much and have to turn down anyway. It's a nice light. I think I want one. Thanks!

sorry made a mistake about the wattage fo the QB I said 450 that was wrong it's 250 watts instead have the driver mounted on the board I'm get a 8 foot driver cord so I can place the "meanwell"l driver out side tent'/room this will help in keeping temps cooler in grow area, they have flower ,/ veg/ full cycle board varies wattages

Thanks to the recommendations of @Aqua Man I returned my Viparspectra and bought an HLG 100 V2 from Amazon for 149.00. I LOVE it. I am so much happier with it and so are my plants. I'll be pairing it with a Growmau5 Far Red Initiator puck very shortly. Buy HLG if you can!
glad you found alight that works for you Budget Led's their series 2 red spectrum 260 watts with 7 gallon air-pots Have heard good things about HLG also - glad I found QB's / Great White is hard to beat check out "Extreme Gardening.com for additional Michrroiza products

Most of the 550 v2s are sold out. Have you seen the spider farmers 4000? I'm looking at it. Seems really close to the quantum boards and is slightly cheaper. Or does anyone have experience with this light? For 600 bucks it damn better work. Lol..
