Lighting Quantum board thread.

whats the difference between alibaba kingbrite ($375) and hlg overpriced ($1000)?

Possibly the quality of the Samsung diodes, for sure hlg get the best top bin diodes available but an Alibaba special will grow you some nice flower as long as you are getting legit Samsung diodes in the boards

 

[F.N.]

They use Samsung top bin diodes. They use wago connectors and mean well drivers and heatsinks thick enough to disappate heat quite well. I have bought all of mine off of Alibaba. I have no problem buying off of them.

That’s interesting, I may have to look into these when/if I upgrade my tent size.

I went with HLG because I wanted it quick and from a Canadian source, plus knowing that it’s legit quality was worth the premium for at least this one. Not saying the ones you got from alibaba aren’t quality, but it adds an element of uncertainty.

There is no difference what so ever. The company I deal with will show you the packaging the diodes come in they are very transparent they want your business. I have bought 6 boards so far I asked all the right Questions. That being said you are making 100% sure you get your money's worth by buying from a company in Canada is a piece of mind. I just said what the hell ordered and got it with in the week perfectly packaged. Plus Alibaba has trade assurance the company does not get paid untill you are 100% satisfied. So if your product is not 100% and exactly what you ordered. They do not get paid. It works
