Lighting up your grow can be expensive. And with HPS or halogen alot of heat is created that can be hard to control, for a small grower with a small grow space.
The NEW LED's are the ticket. They don't use half the juice the other lighting does, and give off way less heat and are pretty quiet.
Be sure to get the full spectrum 5 watt diodes, and remember the wattage advertised is not actual output so you want to get at least 400 watt , and that will translate into 250 or so actual draw.
Most are made in China and are getting cheaper and last pretty long I have around four grows under mine and still going strong and no bulbs to change.
