New grower stealth led question

[Mañ'O'Green]

@Tizer108 Welcome to AFN Because height is your limiting factor get an actual 150 watt full spectrum light that you can dim. By dimming you can control the light intensity the same as lifting the light. The chilled Logic 2' X 2' LED GROW KIT would work well for the footprint but height is limited.

A "300 watt" LED likely will put out too much heat in a 2 x 2 x 3 ft. tent, whether that is actual draw or more likely the claimed watts for now what is increasingly considered a relatively inefficient legacy technology, with COBs and QBs seemingly now having pulled ahead of classic-type LEDs.

If not now, if only to increase efficiency, reduce heat, consider using 1 or maybe even 2 AutoCOBs, other COBs and/or quantum broads.

In terms of using what you currently have, go with the most light that doesn't present problems.

thanks for the reply
I defiantly In agreement that my main issue at the moment is the size of the space that I currently have.
For the moment I will just have to run with what I have for as long as I can. I have my 50w as low as I can and the 5 day old seedling seems to be loving it...
as soon as I can move into the new space I will, In the mean time I need to have a proper look on the best lighting option to use to carry on her life cycle. (Hoping to move spaces in about a month)

Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the recommendation!
A dimmable fitting is a great idea!
im running at a bit of a budget at the moment, and there are so many light fittings to look at.... I’m going to have to have a proper look at the options and compare them....

Check out www.cobshop.net. The Autocob is a great light. Small, no fans so no noise, easily moved, low heat throw, only .49 amps. I have 6 which are built by member @BigSm0.
