Exactly my point... I agree when getting into the cxb cob lights they are all efficient and all perform well. Just a matter of what you want to spend or in some cases what blows your skirt up.
I'm not advertising I'm just saying take a pic it's the same.
Say I have a 3x3 I go to tasty ... his site reccomend 2 t2 to flower a 3x3 that gives me 4 CXB3590IN a 3x3 at $720 bucks. They are incredibly efficent. In a black box , a 3 year warranty, veg power or maybe a pot with needle in future. Daisy chain option and free cord when more than 1 unit bought
I go to Amare they say the SE 250 will flower a 3x3 you get 4 cxb 3070 also incredibly efficient WAY above industry standard. Also 48 3w cree led , veg bloom option, slick ass fancy white box , lense or no lense, ratchet straps to hang 5 year warranty, modular cababitly with mounting brackets included and ability to daisy chain lights.
This cost me 745 bucks.... then I get the AFN 20% discount now I'm at $601
It's what ever blows your skirt up buddy.... if ya ask me do what Atulip did and save money then I'll be impressed
