Help me choose new LED light.

Yeah let me see....

Here it is. I saw he mentioned 10% discount on his a couple of his comment, but looks like he may have deleted that? If you look at all of the comments, he replies to every one of them contact him for "something special" though. So...YMMV.

Just looking. I'll get slapped with a 20% vat bill and it's out of stock just now. Their own 270w light looks real good too.

Thanka.for the suggestion though.

Dude I can vouch for the hlgs. I run 2 300L's and they are absolutely banging... I'll give you an example... I had seedlings in the other side of the tent under a viparspectra 10 inches above the seedlings... Every day I had to turn the pots because even though they had a light 10 inches above them, they kept leaning over towards the hlgs which were right over the other side of the tent.

The plants knew where the good light was and headed towards it... Lights can look as bright as the sun but they don't necessarily give the plants what they want... My plants are always mean n green under the HLG's

My 135w is a HLG. As you can see by my username I love it. The 300l really interests me. Especially if I can get the 10% discount.

Decisions. Decisions. All I know is I'll be buying A light in the 420 sales.

Cheers

How about a single HLG 200 with the Diablo QB? $150 and you are in the 480w range.

Can't seem to find these over in the UK. I've been recommended them before and had no luck then either.

Ah. It appears to be pretty new. HLG stopped selling "kits" because bpeople were wiring out of phase and blowing up the panels or some such ting. Smallest was the 350 before this. Price over here for the 200 is the same as the 135 was. It's $200, niot "150. You can get the Rspec HL100 for $150.

I probably should've said that I want to get as close to 300w as I can so the tents nice and even.

Makes sense from HLG. I'd imagine they'd have loads of complaints from customers especially when they're told its their own fault. I'm sure when I got my HLG a while ago it was less than £20 to get it fully assembled and it also gave me piece of mind. No brainer really.

I like how they've not started adding on lots of extra's like most of the other companies appear to do.

Read what HLG says about the actual output of those Diablo boards. Rep says 2.5 times that of a 288.

Due to the amount of diodes? I know they're good boards I just can't get them over here in the UK and don't like paying crazy import fees.

So I've now seen mars hydros' tsl2000 is on sale at £225. The shape and footprint seem perfect for half of my 4x4.

Anyone have experience with this light?

Thanks for all the advice so far.
