Best Light for 2x2

[PistolPete80]

Pretty much it. I have a 4X2 tent today with a Mars SP3000 and it seems to be doing well, but also know that Mars isn't the top of the line. I need to setup a new 2X2 and wondering what the best light is. I want to max out effectiveness and do not want the hassle of having to put it together, e.g. buying light strips, drivers, etc separate.

Recommendations?

Have you checked out @Budget LED
Or @NextLight

I’ve got the nextlight core model, and I love it.

We have a few great options for a 2 x 2. We can also ship assembled if needed. Any questions please let me know.

To be clear, I am not looking for "budget" or "knockoff" lights. I am more concerned with quality than price. I will check out the Budget LED stuff, but the term "budget" seems to imply "cheap".

I just checked out this light: Series 3+ Full Spec 130 Watt Dimmable Grow Light

Would you say for your brand, this is the best option for a 2X2 that you have?

Also, does your light use Meanwell drivers?

 

[Elevated Lighting Company]

Yes to both of your questions if using the light for both veg and flower. Some 2 x 2ers like to use the 250w too. If they plan to upgrade down the line to a 3 x 3 tent.

Thank you. What's the lead time to ship these?

Thank you. What's the lead time to ship these?

Normally 1 to 2 business days after order placement. US delivery is between 2 to 5 days right now via UPS.

Please note, the term "budget" refers to a sum similar to the term "quantum". There is nothing cheap about our lighting. Simply, for the money you will be hard to find a US light to compete with it.

We have customers switching from other major top line brands to us due to performance.

Well...what did you end up buying?

I ended up getting the XS2000 Viparspectra. So far so good, in week 4 flower right now.

I have a soft spot in my heart for Vipars. My first grow lights.
But then HLG swept me right off my feet

For Sure, I run QB132's and it's night and day difference(old led tech). 280 watts is SO bright.
