LED bulbs not so bad
I've read all the threads on LED light bulbs. Not a lotta good things
to say. Directional, wrong spectrum, etc. Me? I like 'em, so far. I have a regular shaded lamp with a CFL in it. Takes at least 30-60 secs to come up to full brightness. For reading, I have one of those flex-neck lamps with a directional hood (like pole lamps). I put a 60W LED bulb in it. I bought the cheapest bulb I could find at WallyWorld fer $2.58. In a directional hooded lamp, it works great. Full brightness, instantly. Plenty bright enough fer reading when bounced off a white wall. Not that I endorse them, without reservation. I'll be damned if I'll spend $1K+ fer an LED grow light. Not until they settle on what spectrums are best fer veg/flowering, first. But, fer a couple bucks, good enough fer reading. nb |
