View Full Version : LED grow lamps
OK i have seen these at two different grow shops, Hg hydroponics have them and so do basement lighting in Newark also noticed them in aquacultre in sheffield a few months back, i was just wondering if anyone has run any tests on these as I'm bit skeptical to how good these really are.
******link removed******
if anyone has used these and had good results i would be very grateful to hear your story as I'm considering investing in these as they cost next to nothing on running costs.

i was just gna say the same blueribbon! i think this guy's defo on a mission to advertise the hydro shop, if you are being genuine tho then you need to read the rules mate otherwise advertise elsewhere. peace.
oh bugger sorry my bad im new here and havnt had the time to read t&c, so has anyone used led lights?
iv seen these led lights at Manchester show the other month and also in various shops around lincolnshire, and i notice the display stands, iv run searches in goggle and only a few company's offer these lights so you can see why I'm quite skeptical about them
I looked into LED lighting quite a bit. I also saw them at the Grow 2010 in Manchester. The guys there looked a bit dodge and I think they were purely salesman who have never grown or used the lights once. Thats just my opinion. I've read what I believe are non biased articles on the web and in growers mags and the same two quotes I see over and over again - 'over-hyped' and 'the technology is not ready yet'.

my mate bought a 90w led light for plants no good for main lighting but o.k. for side lighting so i wouldnt recomend them im using the 90w led with a400w hps for extra lighting iwould stick to the cfls and hid if you can handle the heat dont BUY !!!!!
