I'm starting dislike the smack talking inda grow an other induction light guys are doing.
I got into this with a fellow who told me Chinese lamps are cheep garbage ..
Here's my responce.
"Since we are being so honnest an insulting each others product....
Just what parts of the inda grow are American?
It should be labeled "assembled in America".
The borosilicate glass bulbs, magnets, wires ballest/ ballest components and warrenty look exacly like the Chinese ones to me.
Im also very doubtfull they Handell the filling with phosphor, flourine or mercury and sealing in the USA?
My friend bought 2 inda grows. One died the first day.spending twice as much dosent guarantee any better quality IMHO.
Does your inda grow produce twice as much bud as my riant?
For the price of an inda grow I could have had 2 400w riant grow bulbs an yield twice as much.
Riant also makes the biggest light 500w for 220v.
And what's so revolutionary about using a 5500k flouro as your color spectrum.
Kinda seems like the wrong spectum for flowering.
My RIANT grow bulb looks like the crazy purple t5 used in fish tanks for growing coral.
Unlike Indagro they offer inductions onany color 2700 -6500 kelvin.
And you can see their factory making their bulbs on YouTube.
I also see lots of folks on the net (inda gro) credit Tesla for this light to sucker folks in..
Tesla did not invent the induction any more than Edison invented light bulbs.
"1884 Johann Wilhelm Hittorf of munster germany discovers the electrodeless discharge lamp. Hittorf is also known for the discovery of the cathode-ray tube in 1869
1880s J. J. Thomson thoroughly studies the phenomena of the electrodeless discharge lamp after initial discovery by Johann Wilhelm Hittorf (1884). Thomson like Hittorf is an established physicist. Cambridge, England
1893 Nikola Tesla first demonstrates his electrodeless lamp at the 1893 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago. His lamp looked like a large lightbulb and had strange greenish phosphors. His lamp was powered by the electromagnetic field of a nearby large "Tesla Coil". Tesla brought the lamp into the public eye and further improved the lamp. The industrialist later sued academian J.J. Thomson in order to secure rights to try to make money from it. A practical consumer lamp was never developed.
1904 Peter Cooper Hewitt developed an induction lamp that used mercury vapor (like today's lamps). He already had expertise as the inventor of the first commercial mercury vapor lamps. He worked on induction lamps with a sphere shape and double sphere shape, with external induction coils wrapped around the sphere or "waist" of the double sphere. PC Hewitt also developed internal induction lamps. General Electric, New York, NY"
Even though Hewitt is credited for the modern mercury induction.
It's certiian Charles Prometheus Stienmetz who also worked for GE helped considerably since he invented AC, induction dynamos, and the induction furnace. Cp Stienmetz mercury light patent directly discussed fluorine gas, phosphor coating and producing white light?

Seems Stienmetz work is more important to development of electricity an light than tesla.
Heres a link to Riant grow light with spectrum chart if I convinced anyone.

I wouldn't recomed them if I hadent tried them.
Email Tony Wu there for prices an info....."
