Hopefully I will get my new strip released before them, I still have more tests to conduct over then next few weeks though

is there more information about the strip you are going to release?

kind regards

@TEKNIK you mentioned that the nichia optisolis would be around 30% less efficient than a 80 CRI or monos. May I ask if you have more information on this topic? I cant seem to find any umol/j values for the optisolis. I can only find lumen/W but I doubt that you are refering to this since lumen will...

Do you maybe know of any source for cree XPE-2 660nm strips besides cutter? (really nothing against cutter.. I love this shop but it would be easier for me because of trouble with customs to source it from anywhere else but australia) what customs issues do you see from Aus, what country are you in...

Thank you very much. But is the red chip suitable for a grow light? dont we run into the same problem of the phosphor layer being less efficient than monos? I have read a lot of threads here and have some LEDs myself. I agree that strips seem to be the best atm. Not saying that COB are bad but I jus...

very interesting thoughts TEKNIK What do you mean with efficiency will improve over time? Like running them over time so they age like a fine wine or with new models being released each year? What do you think would be the best growing light at the moment? Your post sounded a bit like you are a rese...

@Teknik do you run a online shop? I know optisolis are a bit more expensive but the 3000k spectrum seems to not need any extra supplemental 640,660 and 730nm red. Those extra reds would drive a 80cri led panel pretty much in same price region wouldn't it? Does anyone know the spectrum of the 2700k o...

Im really surprised that I haven't found a single grow report with those LED lights...
To me the seem fucking perfect for growing. Am I missing something very obvious that disqualifies them as a grow light?

kind regards

nice board,
did you ever get to try it on some plants?
