was this gen 1 or 2? any more info on the build? ppfd? grow results? yields? pics?
Gen2
Info - Built about 3month ago.
Flat aluminium 25mm with strips attached with Thermal Tape.
10mm aluminium angle for the outside of the frame
PPFD - No idea. Could prob get a Lux reading from a phone app, but how accurate that would be i dont know.
Results - Cant give gospel results as only run 1 grow with it, and it was side by side with Viparspectra v900.
The V900 alone will give me about 8oz so 400w/224g = 0.56g per Watt.
Last grow i had 6 plants.
When i hung the Bxeb rig they was already 14 days into flip, 4 of them just about snuggled under the Bxeb, and the other 2 left under my V900.
The 4 under the Bxeb pulled around 9.5oz and the 2 under the V900 pulled around 3.5oz.
So around a 50% increase in yield (that was never going to be hard against a viparspectra though).
On the maths side...
V900 alone - 0.56g per watt
Bxeb & V900 combined - 0.72g per watt
As the lights were overlapping i wouldnt take these figures as a true reflection just yet.
Serious heat issues this year in the uk which didnt help.
Certainly impressed with the Bxeb in flower so far for the small amount of watts, hence me upgrading to two of the 3x3 rigs to put in my 4x4. Will be building the 3x3 plans to make a 2x4 rig.
And hopefully once i sorted out the F-series/Driver situation then ill using the that as the Veg light.
Just need to marry the correct parts and then make the order.
Pics? will see what i can do.
