Cheap LED Lights

I use LED lights for growing clones in a tent to transfer outdoors. I’ve been using cheap imports 3 2000W in a 6’x4’x8’ long tent worked ok but needed a little more coverage . Bought some more cheap 4000w imports to test time will tell . 200 beads per unit cost around 100 bucks local but $73 on e-bay I plugged them in super bright at least they worked lol Product Model:4000W LED Grow Light:
Feature:As the high cost-effective light in the market, come with new upgraded Epistar LED chips, full spectrum,intense penetrate,lower heat release,clear internal setting, complete cooling system heatsink.Easy to set, low use cost, can work with timer to control working time.
100% Full Spectrum:
280nm ~ 315nm influence on morphological and physiological processes is minimal
315 nm ~ 420nm chlorophyll absorbs less impact photoperiod effect, prevent stem elongation
420 nm ~ 500nm (blue) chlorophyll and carotenoids absorbed the largest proportion, the greatest impact on photosynthesis
500 nm ~ 620nm dye absorption rate is not high
620nm ~ 750nm (red) chlorophyll absorption rate “high”, has a significant influence on photosynthesis and photoperiod effect
750nm ~ 1000nm absorption rate, stimulate cell elongation, impact of flowering and seed germination

Does not compute, if that unit is drawing 200W at the wall, at best its a 500W equivalent not 4000W.

Best leds are from HLG. They are having a Black Friday sale right now.

Those are not the same as HLG :joy:
HLG gets almost ALL the top bin diodes( best led diodes)from Samsung. Everyone else gets the lower bin ( won’t last long or as efficient as top bin). I have an HLG-300 that’s been on 24/0 for about two years straight. If you take care of them they’ll last. Not a single diode has gone out yet

If you look at the 4000w claim you’ll see that it appears the light has 200 diodes at 20w each. If they diodes are being run at maximum power. Which they are not.

If a light doesn’t even make half an effort to provide you with PAR data it is likely bullshit. Everything else about this light is deliberately misleading.

That being said it will work just fine for your clones.
