Part of me wants to use my current grow and lights as a comparison to whatever light you have for a 4'x4' space, To do a shoot-out of sorts.

I'm actually doing that right now with a Mars cob VS an Autocob. I've done one side by side grow so far and half way through my second. I was thinking of posting my results after 3 side by side grows.

Heck yeah, Now I don't need to do one lol
 
I don't know how many people are looking forward to the new giveaways. If there are so many, I can try to talk to my manager

If you go that route, let us know and we can test out our new raffle software!

Now are you doing watt for watt grow? Mars is 100w and old cobs are 50, New are 65. Also can you tag me in on journals?
 
We will revising our website info this month. I would like to ask for a favor, what info you care the most? So we will put into the description? Thank you all!

Wall watts par and spread with distance, I personally would love to see a mixed spectrum like 3500k and 6500k light, would also be interested in that same light only with a 4x4 even coverage... Also size of actual light is always nice.

Probably gpw would be the best way. My journal is in my sig but I am going to need to organize it a bit as it's a bit chaotic and hard to tell whats under what light. I didn't actually plan for a comparison, it just worked out that I can do it. So I'll put all the relevant data/pics together in a separate journal I think. I measured the mars cob @ 105w at the wall and the autocob @ 58w. They are autoflowers so I want to have atleast 3 grows of the same strain done at the same time to even get a little bit of a fair comparison. So one more full grow to go.

@MarshydroTina what should the voltage be set at for the Mars ? Where should I take the reading from ? I am guessing I want to meter it across the cob ?
I feel that it's starting to dim over time and I would like to check to make sure it's correct.

Nice, and this has already been asked earlier with no answer, I took it upon myself to research light and with my findings 75% is the brightest without losing efficiency. My guess is with added led side lights full power would be ideal. Mine has been run that way since I received it. No issues and flowering a 4x4 because I need more light. About to buy another so I have a pair for my weird obsession with pairs...

Doing a quicky youtube search it cautioned turning the meanwell pots up to max or down min. It can brick them apparently. So I definitely want to be careful that I don't accidently go to far in either direction. And I sure don't want to overvolt it.

Are you saying you are running yours full on ?
