[QUOTE="Lycanthrope, post: 157267, member: 562"] Like I said, if you want to build a good light, itll run around $1 / watt but they last forever almost. HLG power supplies have a 7 year warranty and typical life for the COBS is 100,000 or more hours. So at 18h / day, running all year long, you are looking at a life expectancy of greater than 15 years. Course youll probably want to replace them sooner cuz better tech will come out making them obsolete long before that! If you want to just grow greens you could just order some cheap strip/shop leds from dhgate, like these: [URL="http://www.dhgate.com/product/double-row-led-t8-tube-4ft-28w-8ft-72w-7200lm/385765616.html"]http://www.dhgate.com/product/double-row-led-t8-tube-4ft-28w-8ft-72w-7200lm/385765616.html [/URL] [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] They figure out to about $10/strip, me and some buddies just ordered a case of them to replace the lights in our garages and are a great improvement over the tubes I had before. [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] They can be like legos if you get the right parts, no soldering or drilling required, but knowing what to order can be a little tricky sometimes.
