Excellent Brand Globes People Have Used

[Guest]

Hello everyone,What are some good brands ?In the 1000 watt m/h range 400 600 hps range ?What are the sylvania globes like?sunmasters?very unreliable imo,Is it the lumens that i should be looking at?higher the lumens the better?What sort of globes are you stoners using and a 1out of 10 rating please thanks

I personally use son-t agro plus (600w hps). They're supposedly the best, and do the job nicely But I suppose it's all personal preference in the end. I'd give it a 9/10, easy.

I won't give a rating as you don't know what advances are just around the corner, but the Son-T's are the best that I have used and are my personal preference. Check out the links in my signature for more information on HID lights.

sontys are not a brand of light, that is its spectrum.

and a sonty agro plus doesnt exist, its either a sonty agro(400) or a sonty plus(600)

 

I personally also use sonty agros and sonty plus. But I stick with Phillips brands.

years ago all we had was philips son-t. they were good, nothing compared to now though...ive had a sunmaster 1k for ages, always used sunmaster lamps in it. i change them every 12 mths. gave 1 to a mate once, he pulled 2 crops from seed off it before getting a new one. my light used to run 12/12 continous for the whole year, probably near 3 years running. swapped cuttings for new seed now and then. i reckon they`re okay, even if others sneer at them, we`ve always got top results off of `em. basically if you stick with the brand names, you cant go wrong.

Do ya need a sunmaster ballast aswell as a sunmaster globe and shade?imo the sunmaster was very unreliable and took back to hydro drealer and swapped for sylvania

ive used a 400w MH warm dulux with a 400 MH ablite control box worked fine for me

I tend to buy them Lucagrow ones cos they a fair bit cheaper than son-t, cant see no difference at all.

At the moment I got sunmaster ones, only got em cos they we're $32 each, and other than being a bit rattely and paltry looking, they work.
