Helping my nephew chose good lighting

I’m on the road and visiting my nephew’s and he is looking to yo grade his lights from h.i.d. to led… his room is about 8’ x8’ …I’ve told him about the HLG.s and how happy I am with them but he’s trying to save money…and I understand that… so he asked me about this light…
Check this out: BESTVA DC Series 2000W LED Grow Light Full Spectrum Grow Lamp fo… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MT2SGER/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdb_t1_5IkuDb6BESDTR
I just don’t know enough to say one way or another… @dbrn32 what do you think… I still think he would be better off with the QBs …
Thanks

At 390w that bestva is good for about 8 square feet.
He’d need 8 of them for an 8’x8’
His power meter would certainly spin

I’d say it’s not the “bestva” choice he could make.

It’s better than majority of lights on Amazon, but you can still get a little more light for the money. I will give them props thoufor actually including ppf in description. At least we can make a sound judgment on what we would actually be buying.
