mr.led is on a distinguished road
Default The truth about LED's by Mr.Led

Hash worthy or trashy worthy......lol! I love this site. Ive had a bunch of questions about Led's and im here to set the record straight. If you want to grow with Leds.....i your man. I only grow with leds and Ive researched....every...yes...every company out there.
The led market is saturated with companies.
There are really only a few who actually have a conscious and after researching the market and literally talking with at least 20 owners...... I did find the best out there.

Leds have had a shoddy start....not because of performance but because of knuckleheads that tried to do their grows with diy kits or inferior products or....didnt understand how to buy the appropriate led for their growing space.

I can tell you.....the leds I use are amazing and have been tested and tested and have only been put on the market because they work.....really well.

If you plan on using Leds you need to understand a few of the basics with lighting. Leds are not rated with Lumens. The leds arent concerned with "brightness" but are wavelength specific. blue and red. Not every company cares about how there red and blue leds "show" their light. It takes testing and revision to get the wavelengths "perfect" I have found those companies.

Stay away from cheap!!!! you get what you pay for.
Stay away from ebay!!!!
Stay away from "replicas" ie. there are led ufo's....they are not all the same!!! Ive tested 3 and there is one winner...the rest are using the body shape and thats it!!!!

Trashworthy: ledufo
lgm pro bars
fuzzlight
so many more

Hashworthy: Sunshine-Systems
This company is amazing.
The owner is super friendly and loves to answer questions.
I own their products and they are all the best......

Superled.....lightblaze 400
Another great company with friendly co-operative owners. They produce the lightblaze 400 and are releasing a new model next month.

These two companies...in my opinion....are worth every penny. Im not saying anything bad about any other company....just trying to help people get their monies worth and hear some advice from my experience. I dont believe in bad mouthing....i really dont.



peace......Mr.Led

Mr. Led....thanks for the recommendations...from the posts I've seen on this site...the most prevailent negative conception about LED's is the price...I hear they last longer and use less electricity...but the up front costs are what you would expect from any emerging technology...I remember the cost of my first calculator in the 70's over $100 and now I can pick up for almost nothing...do you think that is true with LED's? r they are still more expensive than other alternatives so if up front cost is important to a new grower they should wait in LED's till the prices come dow?

some of our growers are newbies on a budget trying to grow medicine so I guess I am asking not if LED's are a good alternative, but if you think it would be a good alternative for them compared to say an experienced grower with some disposable income and looking to try something new?

OKAY. Turns out our new member mr.led is a salesman for HIS company. Here is videoman's post about this and may he peddle his wares some where else.

And thanks vid for protecting us all.

Peace

You know what mr.led? I take everything back I've previously said.
There is absolutely NO reason for you to contact me, I've done my research, and my patience for a person of your caliber is extremely short.

You join our site, you read the rules and so fourth, yet you decided to ignore them, and than when you are caught with your hand in the cookie jar, you wanna give me attitude?

You came here with nothing, nada, just your ranting and raving.
I checked and that IS your site, mr.led www.grwwithleds.com (site address changed so we do not send people there. J-angel)

Theres is a right way, and a wrong way to build your business and most site owners would be all too eager to help a guy out trying to get on his feet. Assuming he is a stand up guy.

You however, just found the wrong way to promote your site, DONT SPAM!
Your now banned and have to load your wares into your wagon, and go find a new site to spam, good luck with that.

Next time you may want to be upfront and honest, when you are asking people to part with there hard earned cash, cause if your gonna lie about who you are.....what else are you lying about?
Peace
