HLG BlackBird good ?​

Don’t think anyone here has one ,,
The Blackbird is the same price but less coverage for flowering Than the Rspec.

all depends on what size footprint you have.

only 4x4

 

[Sedge]

It should be good then

only 4x4

Is height / head room in your space a consideration / constraint? Blackbird has an advantage in terms of minimum hang height from ceiling and being able to get it closer to the canopy whilst maintaining full 4x4 coverage - over their other similar offerings that is … not sure about other brands

I have one and am very impressed with it so far. Same sized space as you have mentioned - I went with it from the HLG offerings as for the space I have it provided the most even coverage without being overkill. It’s a quality piece of kit

You guys forget about spiderfarmer? Se7000 way better coverage than hlg, check there website they wrote some great numbers for its specs. From my experience, can say they work amazing (well atleast for one grow) you may have to buy a new driver every run to make sure they don't destroy 12 weeks of hard work but hey if you don't want to buy a driver they will send you a cool utube video to dodgy rewire it hahahaha.

As others have mentioned hlg are pretty too notch.

I like gla boards. Aussie owned and made. Have prebuilt plug and play models as well as diy. https://growlightsaustralia.com/

they are on for the price but you need to be careful with them. They’re cheaply made and you can’t trust the quality. They say they comply with eu and aus standards but that’s mostly a lie.

Yeah,a few customer service and build issues

I’ve got a Mars light I’m pretty happy with. Many have an issue with Chinese lights here tho, some can be a bit dodgy.

Lumatek seem to make a good product
