LEDs or HPS?

[Skullman420]

The pro II 80 is the cheapest of the pro-series. It will give 200 "real" watts (compared to HPS)

 

[Skullman420]

PS! The Mars II 400 is NOT 400 watt. It's around 170-180 real watts. So the 80 will in reality give you more power for the money.

Is this the one

The Mars II 400 will however give you better coverage. The pro series give a more intense concentrated light. So it depends a little on the size of your grow-space

So with my tent which is the size of yours basically would you use the mars 2 400/600 or pro series? If proseries how many would I need since it's co concentrated

My Mars Pro II 80, 24 days in bloom!
It's my first grow with led, and it's awesome!!

 

[Skullman420]

In my 120x120x200 cm I use 4 80's.

In my 100x180 grow-room I use 2x 320's

1 320 is in reality 4 80's

Here's my tent setup with 4 80's

 

[Robbo94]

So mine being 240cm just got four or should I go six as I'll be packing it out with plants /: hard work figuring out what I want and what I need lol I could just get one more hps but deffo loving led grows

 

[Skullman420]

In a 240 I would use 2 Pro II 320. they will cover that area

 

[Robbo94]

why are leds so expensive shit me £1000 on lights .

Thanks for breaking it down. My tent is only a 2x2x4. So dont need alot of cover but do want a decent light to get a decent yield. That pro 2 80 looks nice.
For 4sq ft id need atleast 200 watts right so this one would do the job?

Now you got me thinking again. Was so ready to buy the vipar but looking at the pro 2 80 is making me want to change my mind.

Check his grow out mate he's smashing it with them pro 2s as well

 

[Skullman420]

I do not know the Vipar so I can't give you any information about them. They may be good. Maybe someone else here knows?

 

[Skullman420]

They usually recommend that people buy directly from Mars-Hydro. Think it's a guarantee thing but not sure. I just remember I read something somewhere sometime. They cost around the same Mars , Led grow light , Mars Hydro
