I’m gonna be honest as usual and speak my mind. The ts1000 is a better build and used in conjunction with my kingbrite 240w produces some amazing results. Their difference in color spectrum compliment each other. Ts1000 is a solid little light. Depending on the area size, it’s a pretty good light. What I think let’s it down is the size of the light. If they elongated it for a more even spread that’d have been amazing. But all in all, it’s a solid light. I don’t use it on its own though, my area is too wide for that. So I have to use it as a supplemental light. However, I did have one plant under it which was an Indica and it grew pretty large despite me snapping the main branch and it not fully recovering. I’m not so sure how much ts1000 goes for anymore. I’m not sure how easy it is to compete with comparing the same wattage and price point.
