Yeah definitely aggre with you as led will also give out a lot more usable light and ir for resin production. also if you email them directly instead of ordering from there site. (You can get there email on there site), you can sometimes get better deals I got 3 panels from them at different times emailing them directly I got one panel at 87 another one at 90 and the last one was 102 but she sent some sets of free yoyo hangers with it. But like I said if your really low on funds 250w cfl I think actual draw was like 245w (I don't remember correctly so don't qoute me on that )is great. But deff consider othersBefore I'd spend $60 on CFLs, I'd find another $20 and get a 180 LED. Also, those striplights are only good for sidelighting in a space bucket, they are a complete waste in a growroom. In fatc, you can get a Mars Hydro 300 watt LED for $102 direct from their website. They also have the 180 watt UFO LED for $84
