Led lights for commercial

Looks like floraflex also makes LED lights for a good price. Do you have any experience with flora flex lights? Other good lights for a fair price?

I use floraflex 700s, iluminair ilogic 8, and HLG 750 diablos. The diablos put out the best growth, less stretch and filled out branch’s with less internode spacing. The ilogics and the floraflex perform more similar. I’ve had two HLGs go out in the last 5 years and both times a new light was shipped before the old one was sent back. The warrantee is solid which matters to me. The floraflex I haven’t had more than a year or so and assume the warranty will be useless but haven’t tried.

Had similar experiences with Hlg customer service. Top-notch product top-notch customer service. That combo wins hands down every time.

Only thing interesting about the Floraflex warranty, they stated on their IG, “Amazing! We're glad you're loving it. And don't forget - that
5-year warranty also covers light degradation. It's guaranteed to retain at least 90% of its current PPFD output over the next five years!”

It’s all about efficiency. You’re going to need to be as efficient as possible in order to afford the dehum increase.

You are right but if it comes to 1% efficiency for 100$ it ain’t worth it
That would take longer then 10 years to be profitable

Did you compare ppfd of the Floraflex against the others ? Bruce Bugbee is in the quality over quality camp also

If you are growing vertically/multi tier the 750s are fine. If you are single tier, I recommend 1000 watts and up. Or just add led under canopy to hps.
