LED lights

[DWC_Monkey22]

Looking to get a new LED light. Bouncing back and forth between the Kind K5 XL1000 or the California Light Works Solar Storm 880. Anyone have any experience with either product or company?

I would look into COB lights. Or do these fixtures have it?

Just looked them up, and it doesn't appear they do. A lot of money, but some people like them.

I looked into Kind but chose Platinum LED.. on my second grow with them.

I chose Platinum as well, but the hanger wires are too damned long! I burned the crap out of my plant, I left it like that for a good couple weeks and didn't know what it was doing. I took the hangers off and used cal tie to hang it closer to the ceiling in the tent which is 80 inches. And I still wonder if its not too close.

Sonyhad! I had spoken with Mark from Platinum and he said to use all thread thru the brass so I did and then made my adjustment with rope ratchets. Will include here and will post under forum topic again. Also my ratchets sinc up nice and together so I can get maximum lift. I wrote this (hugeass ) journal on my first grow with Platinum but it's too big to post on forum not that anyone would read it.

These photos are in response to Sonnyhad's LED response...
This is the hardware I used to get maximum lift with my lights. There is a full journal on my last grow with LEDs for the first time. Too huge to post on forum
