Good morning sara, is there a sneak peak of the potential sales for this year's black Friday sales? I need to figure out ny budget and what I can get :)

We haven't decided what the discount will be, but there's no doubt that it's the biggest discount you get every year.

The TSW2000 is relatively inexpensive already (under a dollar per watt), and with the standard forum discount it works out to $252.19 delivered, anywhere in the lower 48. Just how cheap is a 315-watt (I assume) ceramic metal halide ballast, decent reflector, and good brand bulb? Are you really saving that much? Just a Philips Master 3100K GreenPower Elite Agro 315-watt bulb is something like $90, isn't it?
 
If I can afford this for my growing upgrade, then I'm sure mostly anyone can.... should have waited for a "Sale" but needed it right now. No regrets. Essentially $1.63 a watt for me.

You're right. If you buy it early, you can use it early, and save a lot of money on your electricity bill
 
We only left FC6500 in USA warehouse, Both FC3000 and FC4800 sold out. Samsung chips are now in short supply, which has caused our production to drop dramatically.:(

I did some reading a while back, and learned that several years ago, when Samsung was short on LEDs for some of its products (televisions, I assume), it turned to another company to supply them. That company was...

...Epistar, lol. That reassured me in regards to the ability of that company to produce quality components. After all, they were going into products that Samsung had to stand behind / warranty. But I assume for a product like this, one that is basically all about the LEDs, that Samsung will just have to produce as and when it can instead of relying on a third-party supplier.
