The DE bulbs need to run "hot" to hit the par #'s. This is why the air passed through a chamber and not over the bulb. I plan on running them open to see
What the difference is. If it's big I will replace the glass and air cool them. I run 40k bloom rooms on a flip and really hate cleaning glass. If I where to get the boss and not hit the par #'s I would have to order another 40hoods .
I went with the new ballast from power box they had good test results on the par. Send me a link so I can check those hoods out
I just found out that Phillips is discontinued the Phillips Master Green Power plus HPS. My buddy says a rep told him they don't want to deal with hobby growers just commercial. His supplier has 3000 left in stock so I ordered 100 of them. I'm also going to roll the dice and go with the Boss reflectors.
I just sent them an email to find out. I think they would of said something if it wasn't possible. I just ordered 35 ballast, 1 DPC-24000 and 2 LSM-24 for my new set up.
No I run 2 5t per room and 1 5t for my veg room. I run 1 unit 10* difference from the other so my day temp will always be 10* hotter then my night temp. As I go along in bloom I go dropping them both just keeping the 10* difference. They tested the ballast out with the Phillips and got the par out of them with their ballast. I think the gavita rep was just doing his job. It might be that the gavita ballast doesn't work with the flip system but I think power box would make it so they did. I will let you know tomorrow wha they said.
