10x15 is in meters? if so then...
8000-10000 $ is too mutch for light for sure. LED strips are expensive because something new in market. Like COB's was expensive some 2-3 years ago, but now if you can save energy about 40-55% with led COB's without power losing. And after some 2-3 years you win some money back from energy saving.
10x15 I would say you can do with COB's something around 5-6 k. Depends from materials and detail manufacturers of course.There are some LED light producers that can make special order for your needs, and Im sure that price will be not so scary ...

So far what i got for a 10'x15' 150 square feet lowest price was Ma lights but 15pc that's to many lights and besides how far into the plant do they penetrate I hope someone here can help

its a big room man, either way, your going to have a bunch of lights..

If you have the money, Id check out Perfect Sun LED, get the Goliath $1150 each, 575 watts each, but ud need 3-4, depending on your area. They also weight 57 lbs, and they will probably be your best deal, along with great results.

5ft penetration, 5x5 veg, 4x4 flower, 24 inches from canopy is 1200 PAR each unit.

Thats what I would do if you can afford it. Its probably the best, PROVEN way to go about this, plus he has warranty.

Hi yep i was looking at these lights and also looking into DormGrow as well Dorm Grow i would need 6 G8 900 plus 12 of the flower one total was over 7000 plus shipping and brokerage and bla bla Goliath i dont know how many i would need or price.

 

[Mayne]

in a 10x15ft id do 6,

6 Goliaths, it would be $6,900 shipped, if in US. 3450watts

 

[Mayne]

in the overall scheme of things, I think this is the best route, for price, heat control, hanging and adjustments. while still getting great results.

 

[K.puff&stuff]

Thanks you Mayne so fare thats the best price can these light be plug into each other in series is there a limit ?
Thanks

 

[Mayne]

hummmm, not sure about the series hookup.. you might need an independent hardline from your electric fuse panel, because of the watts, not sure on that tho bud.

 

[K.puff&stuff]

Thats not going to be a problem friend of mine is a master electrician I will contact Black Diamond and see what they can do for me

Read more about LED COB's, if you have friend electrical then I dont see any problems to realize some cob project. A lot of info and tutorials. Leaders of technology in led industrie - cree cxb series or citizen clu series. Drivers mean well.

 

[K.puff&stuff]

Thank you I understand but it also has to do with insurance i cant just build and have electrician sign off itor even ifhe did it. If something happens like fire then im not covered hope u understand
