Their version of the controller is a manual dimmer dial, not quite up to "par" with Intelligent Gro. Intelligent Gro's is controlled by a actual PCB board and computer chips which regulate the intensity. It also has 3 custom color channels that can be independently controlled.

The lights from the company you posted only either get brighter or darker, and its only done manually by a controller, similar to the one I use on my extraction fans.

those features,of unknown efficacy, dont amount to light years of superiority. also declaring a product that you are testing light years ahead of the competition sounds like sales fluff.

PLUS BML has the diy spectrum tool!!!

Don't look too far into it my dude, I was saying Intelligent Gro are lightyears ahead because I am pleased with the lights, and yes, computer controlled dimming and color channels is new to the LED market and a bad ass feature. Don't take it out of proportion with your assumptions please. I don't see many other "branded" led panels with computer chips and controllers yet, so yea, these lights are beyond what the market offers at this time. (BTW I used the word lightyears as a play on the word light, being that I'm talking about LED lights)

Dimmable lights are a known efficiency, digital HPS ballasts have had them for years now. Obviously plants in young clone stages or early veg don't need nearly the intensity of light that a larger plant does, so yes, a dimmable light is more efficient than a light with no control.

It is fair to say I haven't finished a full grow yet, but so far, they are doing a very good job at growing happy plants, and saving me a lot more energy than many other brands would with no dimming features. When more studies are done about plants photoreceptors, pigments and their reactions to certain light wavelengths, I will be happy I can alter my spectral output and wont have to buy a new light to do so.

The DIY spectrum on those lights is a "you pick the diodes and colors" we install them and send it to you.

Hie Icemude, I am a new member of 420magzine and just enjoy reading your grow review.
I am appreciating of your sharing real photos and your knowledges and enthusiasm.
Nice growing.

Sorry of disturbing you of last comment on governmentchz, since I feel not much comfortable of seeing his comment "noice" when later found he is doing Mar II testing review.
I have read his review and found Mars II is huge power comsuption 140x5W but just with very small footprint.
Looks like wast money on 700W Mars II for an un-energy-saving LED.
Anyway, it is not good to defame each others, I hate that!

I appreciate the kind words Growgrow and welcome to 420 Magazine. I don't really understand the situation of why the word "noice" made you uncomfortable, but I can assure you governmentchz is a cool dude and was just saying "Nice" with a lil style to it! :) Its ok that others join my journal who have used other lights, I have also used other lights as well. I just ask that people only talk about Intelligent Gro on this thread because it is a sponsored journal by Intelligent Gro, so out of respect I try to keep LED topics just about Intelligent Gro here.

I welcome you to follow along, and I am happy that you enjoy my journals.

It could be :) I have heard of some crazy cultural differences around the world. :) In some countries, slurping soup while eating is considered good manners :)

Ha I was wondering what problem was. Noice, did ya think no-ice maybe. Show in Australia, kath and Kim, that's how they say nice, noice.
Noice are also a Swedish punk band
Noice also means horsing around
The Govs a champ as well growgrow. He wouldn't mean any bad by it, that's for sure.

Thanks ice.
when we say "noise" to children, it is just because they are naughty.
but when we say "noise" to adult, means "nonsense" and show disrespect.

lol , so sorry for misunderstanding.
by the way, just like enjoy your grow journals.
 
Re: Icemud's Grow 8.0 - New Intelligent-Gro LED - 2 x IGRO-228 LED - Testing And Revi

Grow onward!

I thought it was just a typo for nice but knowing Gov he probably was saying "Nice job Icemud" in his own novelist way.


By the way Ice; NOICE...
