How does this light compare with the BloomBoss PANEL? They are both 32 watts, but I have heard much better things about the BloomBoss light.

I would not do business with Sunshine systems again. The "brand new" panel I bought had been repaired, the ballast inside had soldering work done to it and the epoxy coating had been cut out to expose the supposed to be hidden wires. They refused to warranty the unit, but would fix it if I spent $50 for shipping and another $125 for repairs. If the BloomBoss is made by a different company, go with that one.

I never heard of the BloomBoss, but the Sunshine panels turned out to be junk

yeah just look for 3000k warm bulbs thats the red. personally i'm a huge fan of dual arc technology so 1 6400k the rest 3000 during flower :) but as far as brands go plantmax is an ok brand cant seem to find any on amazon. check your local hydro shop or even home depot for the 24 watt 3000k bulbs.

It is VERY noticeable, I have a 2700K and a 2100K right next to each other and the 2100K has more blue added to the spectrum, the visible light is somewhat purple whereas the 2700K is very red. The 2100K is marked "for veg and flower" I've never tried using it by itself but I imagine it would make a suitable light if you could only afford to get one bulb, it's not ideal for veg but it'll work and it's great for flower.

The lighting is very bright. Very good for plants, too bright for atmosphere. I used for 1 hour then returned it.Now I use a light bar that had a remote for adjusting, brightness and color changes. My plants are doing fine. I think the name brand is Current.

Dear Mstruyf , Nice day. Thanks for your interest on this item. This is Lydia from customer service team, it's my pleasure to help you. So you mean the size or the watt of the LED? If for the watt of the LED, 250W or 400W is much better. Thanks for your time and best regards! Lydia

In fact i return this model back and got the B490B model form the same manufacturer. It worth the +$65. You get a better illumination "halogen" and a better controllers. The quality is much better in the B490B. The bulb heat in the B490B is much less than the one in the B100B, since it uses halogen vs tungsten.

Hi Tim ~We have mostly regular plants and herbs, which seem to love this light, but my husband says he doesn't really think this is the right light for flowering plants. He thinks Dan's recommendation is the correct one. Good luck!

Hello there! This LED panel is designed specifically for flowering growth. Both this model and our High Output models are great for any plant growth, we just recommend you using a model best suited towards the spectrum of light you need (HO - vegetative/cloning and UV - flowering). The area that this light will cover depends on the size of the fixture and how high you mount it. If you mount this panel three feet high, it will cover 8.75 square feet and if you mount 6 feet high, it will cover roughly 15.75 square feet. This LED light is 16800 lumens.

Thank you for responding to my post. I, too, use Gelish and want to make sure that I choose the right light. Do you happen to know what the wattage is for the Nova? I know that the Gelish lamp is 45w for the 9g and 30w for the 6g. I'm trying to wrap my mind around how that difference will affect the cure! I'm leaning more towards the Nova, so this info will help.

I agree that the 40 watt is very bright in this fsn... I had to unscrew a couple for they were too bright...

You are asking us to compare a small LED array to two large fluorescent continuous lights with diffusers. The two things are for different purposes, with different characteristics. The Neewer LED panel will be more of a point source, and harsher than the LimoStudio lamps. The light output will be very different. It depends on what you are doing.

Short answer much as a 400 watt ballastThere are also different bulbs for different applications all with different spectrums/lumen outputs it keeps nodes shorter (doesn't reach from heat stress) bulbs average 1600 lumens per

Hi Sandy - I have this light - works great, can select RGB colour combination you want by using the on/off switch (easily) - I love the cobalt blue fading to sky blue and back (there are 18 colour settings/fades). Not sure what your question is, though! Uses 17.5 Watts instead of 300W, 12 volt, so I keep it on much more than the old light at a fraction of the environmental cost. Love it. There's a 512 led bulb too, but my 40ftx26ft pool is well lit with the 256. Hope that helps.

Mine came with a 125 watt bulb. I have come to depend on this light for starting my seedlings. I plan on buying a couple more before this fall.

I am pretty sure that it is a 60 watt. I was not pleased. I used it in a front porch light. The light was in a wet area. It shattered within a few days of putting it in. They refunded my money quickly I bought one at Home Depot, different brand, and it has been fine.
