how come your units are so much cheaper than others? most 900w units are around $900, but yours are $400 - how come?

that is why I asked if the Mars II 900w would be suitable for my 2x2 grow tent; I currently run a 600w HPS, so don't want to drop down from that
The real question should be the other way around and directed to the other manufacturers as follows:
How come you are charging so much for your LEDs when TopLED is delivering bud-producing units at much more attractive prices?!?
I will stand by TopLED, SmokeSara and their great product/service/price/fast delivery. Business is business and TopLED is doing it right as far as I can see.
That is impressive Sara! I looooooooooove my TopLED Mars II 400w. Best money I've ever spent, I'm thinking about getting more! These lights are so well made and so bright.
which one do i wanna get for both flowering and veg? is that just standard?
Yes, the Mars II lights are standard spectrum. If you want to get separate spectrums and 2 different lights you can order those on the website for an extra fee.
These were grown with the Mars-II 400 Watt.
Enjoy
That is my Blue Widow plant. She was grown from clone under one 400Watt Mars-II LED. Harvesting in a few days. I will come back and post final dry weight in a few weeks so you know what a single Mars-II 400 can do.
This lamp definitely paid for itself many times over in the first grow. A very good LED investment which I highly recommend. The buds don't lie, MARS-II is the real deal.
Don't look now, but that Blue Widow plant in my last post put our 4.5 ounces dry of fat, dense nugs. Yeah. That's right, one Mars-II 400Watt all to itself produced 127 grams dry.
Now you know.
Mars-II LED is the real deal.
You can pay more and be more efficient in terms of PAR, watt to PAR, electricity usage efficiency, etc. etc. and you may get a genuinely better, prettier lamp from another company and maybe even more bud with those lamps too. But as far as bud weight output dollar per dollar goes? MARS-II is the best investment for your dollar.
I tell you what, if I had to fill a 5000 square feet space with LEDs to grow, those expensive ones would become cost prohibitive very quickly. If I had to do any sort of large area and I wanted to go LED, MARS-II is definitely the way to go from a cost perspective vs. output perspective.
At the end of the day, the extra heat and electricity consumed, etc. is all overtaken by the weight of the crop. Honestly, it most likely lasts as long as those other ones. Customer service from SmokeSara has been top shelf.
These folks have done a great job at making an LED that produces better than HID in my opinion and does so at the lowest up front cost in the market.
