Looking for led light for 5x5 tent

I’ve got a budget of 6 to 700 dollars

If you can spare a little more go with an hlg.

If you can do some basic wiring, build yourself a bad a$$ LED

You’ll need some Led strips, heat sinks and driver. And some wire and connectors.

There are a bunch of threads here on that same topic. I can’t think of one off the top of my head, but I’m sure @dbrn32 can.

I’m new at growing, but I did a lot of home work before I started, I’m using 3 2000 watt Bestva LEDs that I purchased from Amazon, they seem to work great and I believe I only paid $400.

@Vette62

3 lights for $400 is a great price,I remember a review on Bestva 2000w, the bench test had that light around 200w. that is decent. I was going to get a Amazon blurple but the guys on this forum scared me out of it . Good luck with Bestva.

If you want HLG, google “The Indoor Gardener” in Parma Ohio.

His website sucks but he has the best prices on HLG lights. Can’t be beat. You’ll have to call him to place an order.

HLG 600 Rspec is on sale for 700 atm and you can use code Dude at checkout for another 10% off has a 6x6 veg footprint and a 5x5 flower footprint 600w of pure greatness lol

Can’t link it due to forum rules. Just search HLG 600 and it’ll come right up. There are different retailers (rightbud, growace, growerschoice, etc) that sell them but I’ve found HLG (horticulture lighting group) to be the fastest at shipping. Plus the 10% discount code on HLG’s site.
