Choices choices?!?!!

I’ve seen a lot of people working with decent lights but at a price that I can’t really afford at the minute. Im not sure wether I should get…..
SF1000 from spiderfarmer
TS1000 from marshydro
XS1000 or P1000 from viparspectra

any info or advice is greatly received

I use several lights in the 100-150w range for adjustability. MH TS1000 is one of them and does as well as any other but I only use it for flower after veg is elsewhere. Nuggs up pretty good when running correct heights.

The groplanner series got a pretty good review from Shane at Migro. I’m thinking about giving it a try, it’s only like $70. Going to replace my HLG100 in my 2x2

I bought an XS 1500 during my last grow and was very impressed with it. The 1500 is just a bit more than the 1000 and appears to be significantly more powerful.

$126 Mars TS 1000- love mars but they aren’t putting in Samsung diodes or using a mean well driver in this model from what I can see
$145 SF1000- has the newer Samsung diodes and a meanwell driver plus an updated diode array where is denser on the outside for a more even spread
$72 P1000- older model that used the slightly older Samsung diodes less efficient
$89 Xs1000- meanwell driver and newer Samsung diodes
Going to have to admit the vipar xs1000 seems a good deal

I’ve got a voucher for Amazon so I might decide on the xs

Such a congested segment of the light market makes it super hard to navigate. Hope I’m not misleading you as I’ve got no experience with that light only crunching the numbers, though I think maybe you could find a journal using each on AFN

That’s it exactly what I have done. Plus MiGro info is banging too
