I have recently come into a little money and have an extra 1500 I am willing to spend on a top quality led for a 4x4 tent. Im looking at companies like advance their xml 350 something along those lines. Anyone recently outfitted a 4x4 with something similar ? Would love to hear some suggestions. Grow northern seems good but they dont have any products..lol. and I could just go to cidly and get double the light for the same price. What I want here is results. No I think this light might work. Or trying a bunch of things and wasting time and money to get inferior product . Can someone point me to some legit lights?
 
i think DP (dutch passin) stock their leds or seem to remember them stocking them for a while
 
No one has used them yet but having used there past units and knowing how good there spectrums have been I would wait for the new GNs.
 
In a 4x4 tent, you would want 2 lights (at least). Is electricity consumption an issue for you? Ive read that it is suggested to have about 40w/ft^2 actual power consumption. So you would want about 640 ACTUAL draw watts, from current LED's. Sounds like there are some next gen led's coming out that provide a lot more light with lower power use. Might be worth waiting a month or to before you make a purchase. 2 lights will provide better penetration, because you can angle them slightly instead of going straight down. Also you have redundancy, in case one goes down and it takes a week or two to fix, you can keep your grow going and not loose your plants. If you want to order lights now, I think 3 apollo 8's (actual draw about 830w) from cidly would rock a 4x4 tent and you could get them for about $800 shipped. They will do custom spectrum for no additional charge and you would have plenty of $$$ left over for seeds! Here is the spectrum configuration I got.

GN and DP are partners bro so DP will be releasing GNs new unit too,the highlight has stopped now like the MS0006.
 
mate i ot an older model vipar and it fucking rocks the tent mate, nice dense buds great results and not such a high price tag on the leds.best budget light colour spectrums at the cheapest prices i paid 200 hundy for a 600w led :D
 
Top Notch stuff look at Purple Aliens new Generation they are unbeatable in penetration.
 
I was looking and the new xte models from advanced. Using 5 w crees and 3 w osram chips... looks like one of the top lights around for the price
