Thanks for the coupon !! Picked up the SF1000 - LM301H EVO for $130 Canadian on March 1 2024. I was looking to buy 6 of them in total. I just wanted to check out One to see if if I liked it. I was satisfied !! I was going to pick up Five more today March 116. To my surprise The price went up !!! $ 189 minus 8% 15.12. For a grand total of $173.88 . Almost $ 45 bucks more in 15 days !!! 45 X 5 $ 225 bucks more. Come On Man !! Up up with That ????? Is the price going to come back to earth In the next month of what ?? Keep up the good work !!
Is SF trying to pull a fast one on us? I was almost set to buy an SF2000 EVO. But.... let's check the specs carefully. According to SF's own website, the new EVO puts out 553.9 umols/sec PPF, vs. 527 for the standard "2023 newest version" SF2000. BUT! They're getting that 5.1% increase by drawing 11.75% more power from the wall! (per your 223.5W ACTUAL usage shown at 1:11, vs. 200W). So they're packing fewer LM301H diodes onto the board, vs. the old LM301B's, and driving them harder. It seems like they're charging more for the new EVO board, but sacrificing a lot of the POTENTIAL efficiency that the LM301H's could provide. Is it worth paying for 11.75% more electricity to get 5.1% more PPF? What's your take on this? To me, it looks like the "old" SF2000 is still a better deal, especially at $10 less.
Ok so I’m gonna correct my previous statement. According to your review from 6 months ago, the previous model SF2000 consumed an actual 220.6 watts from the wall: so, the increase in power consumption is only 1%, NOT 11+%. So if the PPF figures are correct, that’s 5.1% more light for only 1% more electricity. I’m definitely putting this puppy on my Christmas list!
I been using it with no tent. Plants look amazing..... but still in Veg. I honestly think the SF2000's are the best lights I ever used. I have 4 now and the new one looks to still perform. I will have a more thorough light test coming soon.
@@HowWeedGrow wait until flowering when it's going to burn your plants because of light intensity, so you will need to put the light higher, losing ppfd and efficiency, the main goal of this "evo" real efficiency is achieved with a light the closer possible to the plant, but light intensity is the main problem, and with less than 3 leds per watt it will burn your plants i think you need at least 5-6 leds per watt for achieve real efficiency with a light who can be 25cm close to your plants witthout any burn i dream about 6,2 leds per watt
What light would you recommend for a 4x4ft auto flower tent Thinking one of the following but open to ideas... Se5000 (LM301B) (480w) Sf4000 (LM301H) (450w) Lumi 600 pro. (600w) With the lumatek id go75% power max as know its abit over kill at 100% for that size tent
Can the vivosun lcd controller adjust the brightness of this light via the RJ11 port? I see that vivosun says it’s comatible but could be restricted. Not sure what they are getting at.
Had a question for you . this be my first LEd for a little 3x3 tent to keep 2 mommas in and will eventualy flower them.. I see the SF2000 is only 16"x16" and the SF4000 is 25" x 21", SF7000 29 "x 21" my instinct is to buy the sf7000 that will fit in the tent spaced even though they say the SF2000 is for the 3x3. . So in the 3x3 what would produce more weight the SFG2000 or SF7000?
Its distribution, bar lights have a more even distribution. It all really depends on canopy management You could LST your plant to be optimized for either light
@HowWeedGrow there's nothing wrong with lm281b, the quality of light is the same, the only difference is efficiency, which gets reduced when you drive lm301h too hard. Migro Array uses lm281b and the efficiency is the same as lights other lights with lm301h. It's not black and white as lm301h = better
@@374Boilermaker Heyo, what height for fresh planted seeds, and throughout all stage of life? and what power? these new diodes throw me off too much. TIA
Friend, you are wrong, the new panel with the 301 h evo is a scam. To be efficient, the 301 evos are brought to 60 mA, which does not give even one W of light per diode. We have 175 LEDs in the SF1000. Each diode is at the maximum current, which is 200 mA. This reduces its useful life and the efficiency of the LED compared to 301 b is very low. If you look at PPFD they will be high, but reducing their useful life and efficiency. The same thing happens with the SF 2000. The previous model is much more efficient.

What about the vivoson VS2000 I believe the efficiency is about the same and it has better coverage and cheaper with the same specs

@@HowWeedGrow Thanks for quick reply, im glad i asked.
i rather have more diodes of a less desirable LM281B pro+/LM301B for better energy efficiency... at least 3 diodes per watt ....or is that a myth?
I agree with your statement for LM301B but not for LM281s Never run a light at more than 80% too
@HowWeedGrow there's nothing wrong with lm281b, the quality of light is the same, the only difference is efficiency, which gets reduced when you drive lm301h too hard. Migro Array uses lm281b and the efficiency is the same as lights other lights with lm301h. It's not black and white as lm301h = better
the problem is less leds = more light intensity per led = you need to put the light higher = you lose ppfd
Hey, did someone has the Spider-Farmer SE 5000 and can tell me which hanging height and how much power he/she does give every cycle?
Hi i have 40% first 2 week after 60 % for végétations and 80%100% flowering
YOU THE MAN ODG !!!
Does LED beat HPS?
people who say that HPS is better are the same people that say "back in my hey day", it's obsolete technology
athena continues to recommend HPS for a reason...
Hey my dude I need ur help with my grow I’m in my 3rd week of flower???
Would that cover a 3 by 3 tent
Covers mine just fine with four autos

I didnt have a small enuff tent ... They denied me a light😂😂
ahh should see this before i bought mars hydro ts1000 :( but still hope its not that bad
Is good to !
Ts 1000 es mucho mejor, no sera tan eficiente, pero da mas luz al contar con 50w mas de potencia.
Well only time will tell now I guess but yeah weird ass light diode placement
