Sun System® LEC™ 315 Light Emitting Ceramic Fixture

[Rootbound]

20# off 7200 w in a 16x18' space 12 600s and I think larger runs would be easy. 25w per sq ft BTW

Were you referring to the lec lights in this thread?

 

[The Terps]

I think he's talking about the 600 watt single ended gavita @Rootbound

 

[Rootbound]

He must of had the wrong thread.

 

[The Terps]

@Rootbound I believe he was just trying to say you don't need 50watts a sq foot as he crushed it with 1/2 that but @midwestdensies is a premium room designer!

 

[Rootbound]

Could not agree with you more! He rocks it!

 

[hyzerflip]

Sorry if I was unclear - I was asking if I could run this light at a higher density (~75W/ft²), not lower.

Trying to decide on old 315 lec vs New commercial for a 2x4 veg tent.
Opinions?

 

[Billyboat]

Commercial all the way. The LEC throws a 3x3 pattern where the Commercial is more 2x4.

 

[LEDSMOKE]

Thank you for the reply. Heat output comparable to a 400 mh?

 

[LEDSMOKE]

Shoot does it not come in a 120?

No it doesn't.

I assume this would convert it fine?

It looks like it may work, all though I'm not sure.

 

[LEDSMOKE]

Last question, what's the heat it puts out comparable too?
Also was planning to go with the 4200 since its gonna be used for veg. should I do so or is the 3k advised?

The Welthink ballast can do 120v, Cycloptics sells them for under $200 with a sunlight style plug. The Gavita 600se remote reflector for $90 with $25 Mitronix mogul adapter also throws a rectangular footprint. Cheapest I've paid for lamps is $73, so the whole remote setup is under $400 and you can run longer ballast cords (15ft vs 5 for the Philips ballast).

 

[Pimp T]

So u used a gavita hortistar hood and welthink ballast? @Herb Forester

 

[LEDSMOKE]

Still hitting around $400 after grabbing a bulb with it. Thank you for the info though, this might be a better route.

 

[Herb Forester]

Not the hortistar but the same one that comes with the 600e pro series. It has a replaceable reflector for $35, same as the DE just one end cutout. You can buy the whole fixture with 15ft cord for $90. I haven't checked the Welthink against the Philips, nor have I verified the longer ballast cord works the same (but FWIW the guy who designed it promised me no decrease in lamp performance).
