LED are the way of the future but they need some work. When the big bulb companies start putting out systems then maybe they well be half decent but for now they fall way short of HID.

If its going to get better, i think we need to try new ideas out, and perfect using LED's with their current limitations
This is the job of the companies making the light setups. Why are people going to want to spend out the ass for a light setup that gives crappy results? So they can better the research for million dollar companies?

Many of the people i hear from that say LED's are bad have never had to pay for their own electricity. If someone reading this doesnt know, i want to point some things out.
How are they growing if they don't pay for their electricity?

Also in big grows people could reduce their footprint by combining LED panels to lower electric costs and attention associated with the cost.
There not efficient enough, you'd be better off using low wattage HIDs.

i see most of the setups people want to discuss as being entirely to expensive.
LED lightg setups are more then 3 times the cost of HID.
With the results they have why bother using them at all. With the costs of the LED lights and the results you'd be better off just buying the weed.
