Which 100-130 QB should i get?

[FLextractor]

hey everyone thanks for checking out the thread!
I've decided i'm going to make a little investment into a QB and would like to know what you guys think of what i'm looking at so far and maybe persuade me in one way or another because they're tied in my mind.
i have a 32"x32"x64" tent i have my autos vegging in now and am getting a 48"x48"x80" for flower.
I would like to start with just one in the small tent as a test run so here are my current top 2. if anyone has other suggestions i'm always open to some learning. i would like a full cycle light for my autos and also am not looking to wait 2 months for china shipping. Thanks again. (also not looking to diy these quite yet)

1. Niemi (on backorder so if thats too long might be a dealbreaker)

I have the earlier version of HLG135 and HLG100.

New version has red spectrum.

Been pretty happy for the price / quality.

definitely hear good things about HLG. i went with Niemi light for my first one and im sure ill be expanding to replace more of my older led's and will most likely give HLG a shot with my next go!

I got mine straight off the Alibaba.com site! Got a 250 (236 real power draw) QB light that’s 2 boards for $210 with shipping! Same HLG is like $500+ and still gotta assemble! Mine they Pre-assembled! It will come from same area (in China) as the spider farmer 1! That’s what I was considering b4 found other option! Plus you can get on separate heatsink to hang separate where they’ll benefit you the most!

Also I only ordered my light last Tuesday and will be shipped coming Tuesday and it is max 15 days for the shipping! Also when you do it thru that app your payment is reversible if they go beyond the date they list for when it will ship or how long it will take! Also if it for some reason doesn’t arrive like they say it will! Also get 1yr warranty on the board and 5 on the driver! Plus it uses the newest lm301h led! Spider farmer uses the cheaper (but still good) lm301b

hey thanks for the info! i dig the light in the pic with both ir and uv thats nice and for the price damnnnnn. will definitely have to consider, i've always assumed from past experiences if u want china shipping wait a month or two but thats perfect.

If you need a smaller 1 you can actually get a single board for like $113 (for the lm301b LED) plus shipping or $130 for the newest lm301h! Mine is a double,240w driver and dimmer plus separate switch to turn red/deep red and uv lights on! Oh ya and instead of the ok brand red n uv I had mine done with cree! Kingbrite or Meiju are trustworthy and have same warranty! Another place had 3yr I believe, but also said they wouldn’t have 301h til end of October and I didn’t wanna wait! Plus they were terrible at responding so didn’t trust em to honor warranty!

that would be more ideal since i just went with a 260w w/dimmer and rspec @3000k for my flower and will be looking to replace my veg light. from reading it doesn't seem like the difference from 301b to 301h is very drastic (3.76% improvement in umol/J) but i also am no expert on lights and haven't seen the two go head to head so i will definitely have to do some research. appreciate your info and looking forward to seeing that Gelato grow brotha
