    Hi mate,

    I'm doing a little test on LEDs at the mo. I'm using a migro 100 cob and a prakasa 100 cob. Both have model equivalent of 600w hps.

    So far I'm well pleased with what I've got from 100w on each plant.

    The migro 400 is the equivalent to 600w that costs around £850. The prakasa 300 is the closest equivilant to your 600w hps. That costs £300 but is 100w less on the draw from the wall of the migro 400.

    You get what you pay ultimately but the prakasa 300 is worth the £300 imo.

    Google HLG 300, this is a banging light and there are lots of kits out there for your budget depending on how DIY inclined you are

    If you use the cheaper companies you could spec up a HLG 550 equivalent to 750 gavita for not much more

    Ironman, i was looking into a migro 100 for next summer but now you have me looking into the prakasa 120w, its £100 cheaper for this unit and i was looking at a 100w single cob led by prakasa aswell, it looks like a single light off the 300 one you have. Would you recommend it ?

    That's the one I'm using against the migro. The migro is better so far but the prakasa is still good value for money imo.

    I've got a diary running for each light, they are in the led diary section. I 😉
