occurred to me the other day I should check on them lights make sure none are blown. It's x2 viperspectra 1200w. Bought the lights last summer. Tell me what you think, any of them shot? Pics taken off my two bays, flash and no flash.

When an LED bulb gives out it simply just stops working, as it no light comes out of it at all, as far as I understand it up to that point they are 100% working and good they never slowly wear out like am MH or HPS because they lack the filament. LED's seriously are suppose to last something like 5-8 years of use.
 
Hey red, well, this current grow is my third attempt. Last two were let's say far from perfect due to mistakes and Mother Nature sending pestilences at me....so quite honestly I don't have a real answer for you yet. Things right now are looking awesome, buds everywhere and all. I'm optimistic. But I just got a lec 315 and was warned by shop owner that I'll be selling my leds soon, the lecs are so good he said!
 
Oh, good for you, upgrading. I'm upgrading too and would love to try an lec but I can't deal with the heat so I'm gonna drop a good chunk of $ on a new led. Can't wait to see what you grow with all those lights! Good luck!
 
Wait up red! Most of the heat comes out of the unattached ballast, it's kinda crazy! Cooks your skin like a motherfucker but not much heat, just a crap load of uvs. I'm not sure it gives out more heat than the leds to be honest
 
No kidding? That's very interesting. I'll do some reading on them today and see if maybe an lec is the way to go for me. I thought they put off a lot of heat so I hadn't even considered one or ever checked into them. Thanks Lucky
