Misterdirt 11,143 Report post Posted July 23, 2020 I've heard Quantum is a good brand, as Chinese knockoffs go, but I have no personal experience. Are you looking for a direct replacement for a 200W, or do you want a more powerful light? What are the dimensions of each, and will those dimensions work for your grow space? Do you have a tent? I just bought an LED light from Mars Hydro that I intend to use for mother plants and vegging, which also has the UV+IR LEDs. The spectrum looks very similar to the ones you're looking at.

MiNdLesS 2,692 Report post Posted July 23, 2020 hey guys. I use the mars hydro ts1000 since a year now (I have 2) and am totally satisfied. these are very good lamps for that price. the plants seem to love it too. my personal record in 60x60 tent with 140 watts true power is 173g. they are perfect for veging in 80x80 and will do the job even in a square meter. depends... my current grow is with the ts2000 (300w) and so far I'm very happy. see what the scales tell later. u may want to have a look now and then Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hamme Hydro 4,666 Report post Posted July 23, 2020 I read some very good reviews about the Super Farmer leds. I am considering the SF 4000 myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
webeblzr 1,859 Report post Posted July 23, 2020 I purchased one of these maybe a year ago :https://www.ledgrowlightsdepot.com/products/horticulture-lighting-group-hlg-100-quantum-board-qb192-led-grow-light to supplement a 8 tube x 24" T5 Hydropharm as it would fit beside it in a veg tent I needed to over pack with plants for a spell. Perfect light, if it gives me a few more trouble free years. I also bought one their $99.00 I think the smallest they make, to play around with a single light cheap set up for a friend. Stunning wee light source. I also have a friend that runs Mars and loves the hell out them. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speedlandracer 37 Report post Posted August 2, 2020 I've been using Kingbrites for about a year. They've been great for me, the only minor complaint I have is that their heat sink is thinner than HLG's. One 320w Quantum board at 3000K with UV and IR, and one 240w Quantum board at 3000K without. Also a far red booster at 770nm. I'd definitely order from them again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the 240w Quantum board at 3500K + epistar 660nm grow plants more quickly and more penetration power than CFL.... CFL is good for little plants penetration of light is bad. What's size of plants I can grow with 240w quantum board please ??? Thank's before for your help. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MiNdLesS 2,692 Report post Posted August 7, 2020 my lamp hangs in a 3x3 and it seems enough for that space. I run the ts1000 in a 2x2 and it's definitely enough. you should be good with the quantum board and you maybe have to dim it or hang it higher. there's actually no comparison to cfl, because these led lamps produce much more light per watt. greetz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olsqueak 202 Report post Posted August 7, 2020 Hello,Mindless and others brothers. What's distance from LEDS to Top plants ? I can see some use at 50 centimetre and others 25 centimetre,for flowering period....What's best distance ? Yes I think to quantum board with samsung leds produce much more lumens per watt than CFL....Perlaps more heat than cfl ? First,I want buy plug and play led light with COB cree cxb3590 3500K but it's too much expensive (close to 600euros for 200watts) I made me for better price via kingbrite (8pcs cxb3590 3500K + 2 Meanwell drivers 200w + heat sink + 200w Puck V2 rapidled). I'm happy with this for me I have better results than HPS. Do you think quantum board produce more light per watt than COB cxb3590 ? Thank's before for you're help. Have good vibes.
