Need Help with LED vs HPS lights

[GreenH0rn]

Hello everyone

Can someone tell me how many led lights do i need to make the same amount of light like the 250w, 400w and 600w HPS light systems. And how much energy does the LED panel consume? 1:2 (blue:red)

Lush led lighting. I have the luminator draws 190 watts and does a room that I would have to put a 600 watt hps. And it does it really well.

This question is still highly debated, I have done 800w (consumable) of LED vs 1000w of HID and it was somewhat close. Of course 1000w vs 1000w would have been more fair however I did what I could with what I had. Still with what most LED companies claim, me only being 200w off shouldn't have been a big deal.

I think the better question for you is what are your goals. How much space, then determine the light after that.

LED panels from different company's come in many different sizes and wattage. I believe the amount of true wattage you would need is 3/4 of a High Intensity Discharge with a High Pressure Sodium light.
