gavita 1000de will give you the most light for your money right now. $500 can get you about 600w of cheap LED light. LEC315 is great but 315w vs 1000w vs 600w...

what size space are you growing in? I guess you should pick the one that actually fits in your space. the gavita should be used in a 5x5 probably, with ventilation or air cooling. The LED or LEC are lower wattage so maybe no cooling or ducting but smaller grow area, like a 3x3.

LEC's are energy efficient. LEC in the winter. LED's in the summer.

May I know your grow size? Usually, we choose lights as grow size.
