I've basically been researching for the past 24 hours. I've gotten some REALLY GOOD advice from @Nobody01 and @ActioPauliana Mars Hydro TSW2000 or TS 3000 Easy Grow s600 v2 or s800 v2 (anyone using or used this model?) Vipra Spectra P2500 Any growers that use these, I'm all ears.

the easy grow is 10x the light of mars or vipra.. Samsung LM301B (or 301H - EXACT same thng, don't overpay for H) are the best white led diode out there. it also has some red wavelengths. The only concern i'd have is heat dissipation - still far better than the other 2 options you list. you will likely save money in electricity within 1-2 years that will more than cover any difference in upfront cost. the efficacy of the easy grow is likely 25-33% higher than the mars or vipra models.. they are junk, sorry to those reading that use them.. they are trash, don't buy mars, lol. i think vipra is same category of quality. as in - hot and inefficient and reach 80% intensity within 2-3 years. so, keep it cool, and that easy grow light will last ~5-7 years before it hits 80% intensity.. ignore the 100k hours they list, that's some bullsh%$t. 100k hours until it is 50% intense, maybe, if they used TV standards for measuring longevity and not growing lights (curve @ 80% not 50%). if it isn't cool to the touch while operating, or at least lukewarm, get a fan on it.. it'll add 1-2 years of life. That's the only concern after you see they use quality parts (LM301B)... how is the heat dissipation? if not decent, do something about it. QBs can cause hotspots too in light coverage, but still awesome options.

Alright, so yesterday I spent all day comparing the Mars Hydro TS 300 & Easy Grow S800 V2 Easy Grow S800 V2 On a specs perspective it has everything you would want for a good light. The components are well known brands. To be sincere there are only a few things that throw me back. 1. It's a new company and has little experience in grow lights while Mars Hydro have been doing it for more than a decade now. 2. I saw some reviews on the Easygrow S800 that the light caused small yellow spots on leaves. That may be why theres a Version 2 so soon, maybe they fixed that I don't know. 3. Veg and flower coverage are a tiny bit less than the TS 3000 I've got a 4x4 so the Easygrow goes good for me size. Mars Hydro TS 300 I've seen no bad reviews about this model, only good grows... 1. PPFD seems to be a little bit less than the Groweasy per 1m2 2. Has SMD LED chips not Samsung LM301B/H... 3. Heatsink seems to be worse than the Easygrow as well.. THIS IS A SERIOUS DILEMA. The cost is exactly the same, I'm literally trying to see which has more bang for the buck. From a specs point view I think I'd have to go with the Easygrow. Will be making final decision today. Thanks for all the help!! 🙌🙏 @Nobody01 @Insanityprofound @MrBlocc420 Happy growing! 👊

I am using Mars Hydro TSW in a 1.2 metre square with 2.00 metre height. Great results and no noise from it. If you choose the other use code INSANITY20 to get little more off price. I only started using led at the beginning of year and Mars Hydro have been great as product and also customer service 👍
