I do have some cobs though too. 13 citizen chips - $400 kit and a bad ass grid for hanging.
with 2 drivers, clips, reflectors,and heatsinks.
All inside a tote in my garage.
Why? Cuz im not an electrician and dont want to even Chance of killin myself or anyone else hooking it up, or having a fire. So im cruisin' with the pinks and they work just fine.

Feel free to send that my way if it's too challenging for you
finally figured out who the hell you are bbp haha.it didnt click until i seen that cheap ass driver again :pCitizen clu048 driven softly at 680ma by a cheap dimmable chinese driver. Cost around $25 for all of the components. Now I'd get my best efficiency at 1400ma but even driven at around 25% these lights are no joke.

First pic is with the dim all the way down then all the way up in the second pic. Doesn't do it justice though.

Lot's of good info here,too much really.Great to see people building their own lights but not for me.I'm looking to spend some $ and from what I see so far Timber cob systems seem to be a good buy?Remember,I'm not going to build my own just looking to buy the "Right" light the first time.
The Fatty CS looks like it would be perfect in a 4x8 on a rail and at that price that's cheap compared to a lot of led companies.Thats probably what I'll get when I do my next run. In the meantime, will be using these for the seedlings for outdoors this summer. They work great for that as well.
the fatty cs is their most expensive at $1600-1700 using 12 Cree CXB3590 COB LEDsI'm out plowing now but how much is the timber fatty?
Timbers a great value as well as hlg and plc.all 3 offer the perfect light for a 4x4 so double it up and you won't need a light rail.if I was going to use a rail for led I think I would use the hlg 550 just because I believe it will be quite a bit lighter weight than any cob rig with similar light output.
appreciate the response man,sorry to be typing so broken,spent weekend in er with flu and lung infection.Better now still loopy.At least I'm on the right path,I hate when I buy the wrong things. I used mars hydro last grow and it was my best smoke yet.I'm sold on led,just want the right setup. ;)the fatty cs is their most expensive at $1600-1700 using 12 Cree CXB3590 COB LEDs
I like the look of the timber lights a bit better than the other.I appreciate the feedback brother,I will be pulling the trigger on 2 of these babies.When I get her all setup I'll come back with some big glossy pics. ;)timbers version would be 2 of these http://timbergrowlights.com/redwood-vs/
So, I got a 300W HiGrow LED from Amazon this spring. I used it to sprout seedlings, growing them to about 10 inches underneath it, before moving them outside. The seedlings did well, with good color, growth, and no stretching. This was on the veg setting of the light. This light cost me $89.
I'm about to pull the trigger on this light: https://www.amazon.com/HIGROW-Optical-Spectrum-Greenhouse-Hydroponic/dp/B01HYUO9VY for a closet grow over the winter. It'll be a one or two plant DWC SCROG setup. It's about $159.
I have seen a lot of discussion here that poo-poos the cheaper lights available on Amazon, such as the one above. I am trying to reconcile that with the dozens of five star reviews on Amazon. Can someone explain why these lights are hated here, yet loved by their purchasers? Who is wrong, and why?
TRUTH!we are mostly coming from HID land to leds
