Lighting Illumitex Mini-Led

[slappynutz]

Hi I am new here and I have a question about these things here http://www.diamond-grow-lights.com/illumitex-LED-Mini-Grow-Light:::54.html

For say 1 autoflower how many would you need?

I cant quite grok what these may be capable of as I am not terribly bright when it comes to this technical stuff.

I assume you could go well with like 2-4 of them maybe?

For the price do they seem like they would be worth while?

Cant find any input anywhere on these so I am just going to get one and if I like it I will get a lot more.

I guess the main thing that draws me to them really is the low power consumption since I want to dabble in off grid power supplies eventually have a handful of these around could only be a good thing.

YO, They look cool mate,

Good idea for side lighting, to get to the lower areas.

But you cant beat a good overhead main LED growlight.

Plenty to see on this excellent site what they can do!

The GN is a briliant bit of tech if ya looking for a main LED, check out other threads on here with it. I love mine to bits.

Any light that claims its brighter than the sun is BS.

Those small guys are used mainly to illuminate a specific bud not do an entire grow.

At only 11 watts each you would need quite a pile of them and then you are heading towards the price of a regular panel!

Rather have a look at some of the cheaper LED panles, even ones from China work well.

Well I have a 135 watt blackstar uv panel I use for super sweet tomatoes and other stuff. I wonder how these would stack up against other supplemental lighting as in would a decent flouro bulb be just as good or better for lighting up specific areas?
