Lighting Induction lighting revisited

[Red eyed c]

got it from bcx energy. a company in australia that makes induction lighting.:check::smokebuds:

Not very impartial then : there are all kinds of graphs,charts and chatter around the net about this kinda thing,and most is used as a marketing tool.Every light has a place in our hobby and theres something to suit everyone's needs & budget imo :stylez rasta smoke:

Led can achieve higher lumen per watt now days.
But higher power more heat an droop an chances of thermal failure.

And LED Realy ownes in ruggedness.
Led can be dropped an bashed.
An repaired at home cheep.

Induction floro would be destroyed....

I just hope the lathes induction light wins his test...

I think LEP may be the next big thing or something close to it.:stylez rasta smoke:

Comparison of riant vs inda grow ballast.

Pics of ballast internals.

Top=A LVD 65hz, not sure who made it.
Lower= Inda Grow / Solara

Riants Ballast

Inda grow an riant ballasts are pretty similar.

nice pic's did you take them? playing devil's advocate, looks like a large amount of component's transformer's, diode's, coil's, transistor's,potenieometer's, intergrated board's, compounds the reliability of the system just like mh or hid .
part's to fail. you said that riant should have a repair facility in the usa for repair. of ballast's. have you had any ballast problem's?
thank you for your information!: this is a help for everybody that has to choose a lighting system.

The bottom pic is mine,
the top 2 were a friend Chazbrolin's
He thought my Riant blast would look like the LVD one.



I have had trouble with ballasts.
The first one died like 3 days after it arrived.
Riant warrantied it.
Their fault, thermal failure.

The second one wasent there fault.
6 mo later a transformer on the pole Blew up.
It sounded like a car wreck.
After that the light would only stay on for a second when turned on.
I told Mr Wu it was caused by brown/black out.
He still warrantied it an should be sending it back today.

But buying inda gro isn't guarantee flawless performance either.
One friend bought 2 ,1 worked flawlessly.
And 1 died right away inda grow warrentied it an it died again a few monthes later.
3rd time it was great an has had no other problems

Therre a are differences in 60hrz vs the larger 250mhz.
The MHz ones last twice as long, are alot more efficient,
And have no flicker.
The hrz ones run cooler, die sooner, and turn on and off much slower and have flicker like conventional lighting.

nice room dee!:Cushty:how many light's and total wattage??:smokebuds:

Induction growers unite!!!
Nice ladies!

I'd like to ask who made yours?
And the cost?
