Lighting Will this light work for one plant?

Sorry for the late reply but you didn't have to sell me, everyone else here did. I just wanted something that did the job well and a lot of people here are vouching for you and your product. I'm really excited to see it in action! Would you recommend running it 24/7?

This is more of a personal preference type thing. I run less than 24/7 because I don’t see much difference between longer or shorter hours. I also do it to help control the electric bill too. The lights don’t use much power at all but 30 of them add up.

@BigSm0 how much would it cost to run 1 for 24 hrs a month?

Depends on your electric rates.

Hey bud, just finished my 3rd autocob grow at 24/0. Honestly, going back to 20/4 except during winter just to keep temps up. I didnt see a great deal of positive difference, but I do think they were happier at 20/4. I think most plant life does a little better with a dark period. Just because it can and does grow naturally with little to no light doesn't mean that's what they like. In those areas they have no choice, given an opportunity to have a little rest I think they would prefer it. No science behind it, just a feeling I have. So, i am going back to 20/4 if that helps.

The National kw/average is 11.88 cents.

This is based on 12 cents for 24 hours a day for a month. $5.26 At 20 hours a day it drops to $4.38 per month.

The fun part is if you were to compare the cob to the “”300w”” leds that the cobs deliver more light than they work out to be 11.68 per month.

It was impressive! The sticker you sent with it looks pretty good on my coffee table

I dont have any auto cobs and I still support this guy, I do however have cobs and believe cobs have come a long way! The efficiency is what every grower loves, along with the high output of better balanced spectrum lighting. I personally run 9 cobs on 3 separate rails, totaling about 550w in total lighting about 6'4' space getting amazing penetration. With the mylar it's possible to get 2 girls under the cob, they may not be monsters but they both will produce. Good luck bro
