I found a premade LED building on a local market. I lost some informations because the ad closed, here are all I got.

Price: 285 USD

Sellers says that its good for 1.5 x 1.5 meter.


240 WATT Samsung LM301H 3500K + Epistar 660nm + 4xUV + 4xIR QUANTUM BOARD

52800 Lumen

PPE : 3.10 μmol/J PPF : 0.56 μmol/s PPFD

MEANWELL XLG-240-H-AB driver

48V : 900-2700mA


I dont have PPFD table for now, If it changes the deal too much, I can ask for.

It has dimmer from %10 to %100 and ready to hang.

And here is a thumbnail pic of photo. Sorry for the PİXELss:D

I'm not sure but @Mañ'O'Green @damien50 i think have good knowledge about lights
 
Nah, don't buy that.

At the very minimum buy a Mars Hydro LED light or a Spider Farmer LED board. If money is an issue.

If money is not an issue? Buy Cobs, Quantum boards from reputable companies. (Amare, Electric Sky, HLG, Mars Hydro, Timber, just a few more).

If lighting a 4 x 4 thats 16 sq ft....You need 30 watts per sq ft of efficient white spectrum lighting so 480 watt draw from the wall will do it.
 
Even more,1.5m x1.5 tent is 5'X 5'! Soooooooooo,definately not enough.You would need 2 of those...at least!
But Quantum boards are really good.
 
The recommended true LED wattage is about 30 watts per sq ft, although 25 can work.
Paying more than $1 per watt is unnecessary, but the light you are considering is more efficient than most.
If I were getting LEDs today, I'd strongly consider getting as many of these as needed at $0.80 per watt.

Thank you for advices. I also looked for Mars Hydro lights Maybe I can afford a TS1000. But when I check the numbers I thought this one is more powerful.
 
How big is your tent?

Hey my tent a little bit big for now. But I use an 400 HPS for support. I plan to remove HPS maybe in two months. I want use only LED and I plan to use it for 4 plants at least.

I’m in a 4x4 tent with the 2x kingbrite 240w 3500k and a Mars hydro TS 600 so about 570 true watts. The kingbrite had to be assembled but had both built in about 20 minutes. It’s like putting a coffee table together. Just gotta follow the directions. 2 of the kingbrite would be 480w if you go in that direction, go thru vivi Liu and be in contact before placing order! Took me four days to hash out details and cost but was delivered from China to my door in NYS in 21 days for $ 285 USD . Samsung lm301b , meanwell driver with dimmer prewired... in my personal opinion they rock! Would rather pay that for what I want then pay double for almost the same thing... (no offense HLG)
