this is a vipar spectra 1200 led light grow i've done a few grows with this light its on the very cheap end of led lights i will say it is a steller light for veg couldn't be happier with its performance..for someone looking to just grow a few ounces for personal use it would be a good investment..i have yielded 9 ounces off of 6 small plants with this light with only a 3 week veg cycle. but i have over 20 years experience growing..a new grower might hit the 1 ounce per plant in this setup with a short veg cycle.It handles flowering decently at best. nugs were frosty and dense but not the coke cans i pull with other led lights.all and all for a newbie just looking to grow a little head smoke this would definitely work..i have ran this light on and off for a year with no problems..but if a problem were to arise with the light id probably be screwed..the biggest grip i have about the vipar spectra lights are all the leds are set at 90 degrees so the foot print is smaller then advertised id say this light would work perfectly for a 3x3 not a 4x4 as advertised.
