Hmm. Somebody would have to be the guinea pig so to speak.

Yeah, I wrote to them to ask what diodes and drivers they use, and price and shipping options. I wonder if the pictures they show of large US grows are really them, or the real fluence light...

Nalite said their 400w 5 bar version is about 230$ for a sample, and the 800w 10 bar version is around 400$... Pretty ridiculous for a waterproof system.
The other company is failing to specify which 3030 osram diode they use, there is quite a lot of variation in their efficiency. They want about 450$ for their light.

Fluence has since been purchased BY OSRAM and Gavita has been purchased by Scotts Miracle Grow.unkle_psycho wrote: ↑Mon Sep 17, 2018 8:29 amAnother one... This one uses Osram chips

By the way, Fluence has some new fixtures out. The 2i, 2x, and 2p Spydr series. The efficiency gains go from 2.3 micromoles/J to 2.5 on the 2p. Fluence sales sent me the specs on the 2i which self report at 2.7 micromoles/J - which will be available next month while the 2p is available now.
Please notice the similarities in the Fluence design to the Progrowtech Evolve Series.

I was thinking about those new models, and this stuff just popping up. Wonder if this isn't the supply chain of their earlier products continuing with part of their design... Still waiting on shipping costs, but with the 400w version at 230$ I might just give it a shot...

damn... was thinking about the lower power version, but the shipping was so much... Congratulations on the purchase!
I guess your going to need co2 with that? What did you grow with before, for comparisons sake?

its still only around 650 watts, beforehand I had a 750w true watt blurple light that i got for 200 off craigslist.. im probably going to add some more light to my set up as its in a 5x5 tent with a 4x4 fabric planter, the new light perfectly covers the 4x4 but i might add some supplemental light if i end up growing outside the 4x4 planter.
here is my old light
