I run an hlg 600 in a 4x4 and it's more light than I need. I also run co2. The fixture puts out close to 1500ppfd and out performs a de1000w in term of numbers. 500w of quantum boards is absolutely enough for a 4x4 and anything more you would need CO2 to see benefits.
Not sure what your getting at? It has more even coverage than the viperspectra and this is true of almost any light

I think I'm supporting what you are saying except I feel that 500w of qb will get you about where you want to be to max yields.
sure seems easy to buildPar chart for viperspectra 900.
Par chart for hlg 600.Viparspectra 900W LED Grow Light Review - GrowYour420
Viparspectra 900W - We have tested this powerhouse of Viparspectra and now know why this light is so popular. A budget friendly option for every grower!
At 48" the hlg 600 and the viperspectra twice as close at 24" the hlg blows the viperspectra out of the water I mean it's not even close.
Such a huge difference it's not even comparable at 24" it's 3x the amount of light min. And about 6x on the outer edges
Extremely easy. It's a bit pricy in comparison but you can see the difference. This where I got mine. It was the cheapest place I could fine and they will assemble and test for a small fee I think like $70. I built mine as it was just so simple I couldn't justify the cost.

When comparing efficiency and output. A watt is not a watt. The efficiency determines output for each watt and in comparison you get more light with less wattage and less heat when using qb's. Just general info not pointed at you.
Have your fire extinguisher ready too! LOL
I buy a lot of Glass from there and Have NEVER been on there forumsHave your fire extinguisher ready too! LOL
My first shit light - viparspectra 300w. Bad experience I ever have. It's a nightmare!
Just use it about 5 months, I was very satisfied with it first and my babies also grew good under it. But yesterday the light caught fire and my babies...forum.grasscity.com

Kingbrite lights are very affordable and way better than any Burple that I have seen..Including my high end Unitfarm Burple that I got free as a test! (it uses all Cree and Oshram Diodes and not the cheap Epistars); and sold in the mid $400 dollar range when They sent mine for free. That one is still in service, but I would never pay that for any burple in these days of diode efficiency. (white Light diodes)forgot about my grow diary, I didnt Start tracking until flowering started but I inserted some images from veg for idea of how they started. But viparspectra works, buy what you can afford, if you could only afford vipars, just do it, you can always sell them when you upgrade, that’s what I did. Once anyone sees what you could do with them, they‘ll take them off your hands for a slight discount. Purchased a pair used on ebay for $400, used them 6 months, 2 harvests and sold the pair for $300. Basically $100 for 6 months of use.
