Wanted to thank you for the uv lamp. My first harvest you could tell the difference. Flavor and potency both increased. I know because I'm running strains that I'm very familiar with. Just so happy to tell you the news!
I just noticed I haven't sub for this channel yet even tho I watched probably every video heh. But these type of things I'm interest in and see how technology gets better in this area year by year. Big thanks to Migro channel, I have learned alot from you.
Great video!! I’ve seen a lot of great results and I’ve heard a lot of good things about your grow light the Array 4. Now im looking forward to add it to my grow
Which one, the one before they added their canna green? I have the one prior to that, the evo mint, paid 999. I think it's a better life because it has more of the Samsung LEDs rather than the green. ones. Looks like they took some of the Samsung ones out and replace them with the green ones and made the Light cheaper
How about those RDJ Bouns 720W bar fixture lights on Amazon for $325. They're always recommended for price, and I purchased one when my Alibaba bar fixture driver failed, and I needed a quick replacement. I was really bummed out, because your MIGRO 750 was coming out a month later. Had to keep the lights on though, and this has worked okay since July. It'd be interesting to see a review, and they'd probably send you one. There motto, "To make a light that will not break", lol, was pretty funny. Definitely a Chinese company, like many. Thanks for all you do Shane!
These are by far, the most honest reviews on TH-cam. Thank you Shane! A welcomed change from the shameless people that just promote their own products, despite their shortcomings. Shane is a solid guy that makes a solid product. Thank you sir.
Just bought the white rose 4000w LED off Amazon & then this pops up..... Knew I should of checked in with migro first let's hope this white rose was worth it!!!
Love the content. But how about doing a light review on the varidrive maxibright 720 w Might be a good light for people on a budget as most people can’t afford a lot of lights on the market. 👍
Love the channel here in the states any chance you could look into reviewing the California lightworks lights spectramax especially they are my favorite company here but also interested in black dog LED reviews. Both companies highly rated and performing but would love to see you break them down. Grower's love brother!
correct me if im wrong, but most of the lights were tested with the old par-spectrum right? While some,. including the Migro aray, were measured with epar? That means the other lights look worse than they actually are because you have to add 3-5%umol, right?
Yes, you are correect. There is 1 to 2% far red in most led fixtures with white LEDs. The fixtures in this list were tested over about three years. I would have tested the last 1.5 to 2 years with the ePAR meter and before that the Apogee SQ500 and Spoton meter which do not detect that 2 to 3% far red.
@@MIGROLIGHTcould you plz explain your numbers to me… turns out your math and mine are not producing the same total cost. I assume light cost plus 3 year electric cost equals total 3 year expense…? But when I add the two numbers together I don’t get the same answer as you😅 0:52
Okay so maybe I’m missing something here… but isn’t the total cost after 3 years figured by adding the initial cost of the light to the cost of operating the light for 3 years? IF SO (and maybe I’m wrong) then these total are incorrect. At least the first 5 are incorrect. Like I said possibly I’m doing something wrong here. ANY help would be greatly appreciated as I am trying to make an informed decision😅 4:17
Please test the Lazerlight 720W Pro. I have this light and it works perfect. For my opinion its the best light and under valued. You can become this lamp with 5 year garantee for 240 euro.
Im considering to buy the MIGRO 5X5 ansd by checking the color spectrum, it hasn't a considerate red peak on its wavelength.. but is very balanced, is there a good explanation? Or just it is what it is?
The Grand Master LED 5x5 is the best light you can get for a 5x5 tent that thing is a beast and compared to other lights its price really isn’t that bad
I just upgraded my two SP3000 to one of the new AC Infinity IonFrame Evo8 lights. Most expensive grow equipment I have ever purchased, hopefully it pays off!
Actually getting a light that does what it says..... The Ac Infinity lights underperform to say the least. Plus they literally only have a 1 year warranty. This same channel has videos showing this sir.... Your grow, your money. Do as you please. But the information is there
Hi shane looking to place an order with you, i have a 9ft x 11ft space, im not planning on running co2, what leds lights would you recomend for my space
Please explain why PPFD/Watt and PAR are measured at different heights? Some lamps have 50cm, some have 35cm, some have 40cm. Shouldn't it be the same height, for objective measurements and comparison?
got the spider se1000w for my first 5x5, ended up deciding to get the ac infinity evo10 for my 2nd tent. its cheaper then the se1000w with the discount code and claim an efficiency of 3.14 µmol/J PPE. still new but like it so far, lot easier to set up then the spider and looks a lot nicer
@@rickheath5507 if you want to max it out you do, i've been topping out at 7/10 on the brightness and find it to be more than enough for flower without Co2
How do you calculate avg PAR? You said you calculated running cost @ 800 µmols/(5x5)/sec. However the numbers shown for PAR vary wildly from that. Are the shown values measurements of the lights running @ 100%? Did you simply extrapolate from the measurements @100% to reach the running costs? That would be somewhat misleading as some lights will run @ 100% to reach avg. of 800 while others would have to be dialled down a to more efficient ranges. Wouldn't it be more illustrative to show the intensity grid when they actually reach 800µmols and the wattage used? I realise that making all those measurements would be exhausting but you don't get a true representation of hotspots nor running costs when the intensities vary that much.
Is there anyway you can test a 800 watts 15 spectrum led light I just received it. I had for 4 days at a price of $395 it amazing plants are growing at a rapid pace. I am so impressed with the spectrum must see
hello sir, have u ever done a test of DIMLUX lights? its a dutch company that claims to have the best price/performance ratio on the market. cant find any reviews on it aynwhere.

@@metatron6066 I'm not sure about the older models, but my Kind X750 is a beast. Not a fair comparison to make, but it outperforms my other lights. Mars FC-6500, AC Infinity S44, Viparspectra XS-4000.

Tarantula tent dimmed down is the best for hobby gardening.
The tarantula is even more efficient if you dim slightly or hang higher. It is truly the best. 6x6 tent minimum

800umol average is a middle number or average PAR I use for comparison purposes. It equates to 35 Mols per day which is a good performance level. Various PAR meters used from apogee and Innoquest. They only require calibration every 12 months but I get new ones sent to me free so I just change up.
