After further study of the CMH lights and talking to a couple of commercial Growers online and a couple of friends that have decided to go this way.
I've decided to go this way myself it looks to me like it definitely a better lighting system .
Well we're going to find out firsthand what they're all about I expect to save about 75% of my lighting bill and it will not have to use a blower to cool my lights down. The HPS lights that I use at best are 25% of the Sun the new CMH lights from what I read when new the bulbs are 92% of the Sun and after 8,000 hours of use they're still 86% of the Sun that's an significant improvement over HPS lights so I expect to have a larger crop larger yield it just can't be worse it's got to be better so with that being said the $307 investment that I just made for two lights should pay for itself theoretically in about two grows and savings over electricity alone
Going to get some new lights for the girls.
Ordered 2 conversion ballast kits for my reflectors to change them to CMH lights. Here they are.
When I get my report on Monday I should have new lights over top of these girls they're supposed to be here by this weekend.
