I use the 90w ufo from htg supply with the 2 w lights. Works awesome for veg. Haven't used them for flower though.

heck yeah i did- and if it works like its supposed to I'll buy 2 more in the next 4 months. If the power savings claims are accurate as well as the yield claims- the only decent reason i can think of NOT to buy one is if you don't have the money to buy one up front. As it stands, my 600w HPS's have been producing enough to cover every expense i have had in my grows, plus a good amount of upgrades- and if the LEDs from this company are even close to what I've read, they will pay themselves off rather quickly. That and no more living in fear of my house burning down with my dogs in it while Im at work is exactly the kind of peace of mind thats worth it to me to buy them- I hope they work really well too. I'll certainly let you guys know how they work as this crop progresses.

I can understand about the fire hazard and the power savings... I didn't notice a huge increase in power usage when I went to HID but I only have 1 400w. I also worry about fires which keeps me home alot.
led's are great but they don't cover that large of an area... also the lights last forever, but the fans and other parts die before the LED's themselves. Hope you got a warranty on them for that price. Hope they work well for you also! Some that have been claimed to be the shit are garbage. Make sure you keep a grow log cause I and Im sure alot of others would like to see what happens
