Lighting new GN Units

[TaNg]

Thank you Tang! I am feeling sorry that my first post is full of whine (/shame) but.... i m really running out of patience! Actually i m not that new since i am reading AFN for more than 6 months now and i have every single part to start my first grow except the lights. I really need to escape from the local dealers who sell only shity staff (almost like Hemp) for like 6 to 8 euro per g!
Sorry for the first bad impression i gave, i promise i will come back with a growing diary and a ''possitive'' post (when GN finally ''allow'' it)

We are all eagerly anticipating these lights bro and I wish they had been out earlier too but it is what it is....I'm confident they will be out soon and the pics sooner and they will be well worth the wait,if they are as good as we hope they are they will revolutionise energy consumption for indoor growers.
When both my rooms are running max I use about 800w for lights and my monthly electricity bill is £90 and a lot of that is for the lights so these super efficient lights should save me a lot of money in the future especially with energy rates going up at the speed they do.

The new lights will be a bit rich for my blood at the moment but I'm looking forward to some cheap ms units being available! You're spot on about these rising powerbills..... LED's are the way forward, for me at least!

Im really not sure the old units will be available cheap, been looking but people tend to keep hold of them, which I would too. You may find some cheap well used out of warranty ones but if your after cheap there are plenty others around that do ok, if im wrong I will be buying one if I find one too lol

Haha yeah i suppose there's high demand for any GN lights... hey, maybe we'll get lucky!

Been trying out another make of light and boy is it hard work! GN are worth their weight in gold

To anyone too impatient to wait or who doesnt have much coins there is a guy with some old MS0006 on the bay (his blurb shows the latest specs but it aint). Not posting link but do your research, it looks like he got a few too...
me 2 cents

Edit: I feel I need to say I have no connection with the seller.. "AFN smoke out"just sharing what I think is valuable info for AFN members..

That's a pre march 2013 unit (when they updated the spectrum) with a rather large price tag and a dent on the face plate . I would only ever buy a second hand led unit from someone I know and trust else you will never know the use it's had and the environment it's been in.

 

[Justinsane]

Yeah, buying any kind of electronics second hand is one risky deal.

Hello all! Thought I'd find pages of great reviews about the new units after a few weeks away but everyone's still patiently waiting

No poking the bear bro. A few weeks is not enough time for someone to do a whole grow and write a reports if people writing reports before fully testing a product I be sure that Ite deleted.
