You know I’m just busting your balls anyways lol

but you are right i posted a pic. i dont expec free clones for it. those boards are jacked though? at worst im stuck with a ballast and heatsink but its hard to source cheap boards? anyone have a link to cheap quantum board replacements? Ive found one on china for 60 with shipping per board. i think hlg is only 79 per? but im screwed if i dont get a refund- i paid 550 and its janky.

It looks fake. I have the b spec and you can see the blues.

I have the same light but the pcb is printed different. Eiter he refunds or his ebay rating goes down i guess. I have bunch of quantum and not one bad led from china. I have had a bad hlg and they replaced no questions asked but this is secondhand. Im guess ing im screwed his name sounds like a china reseller? no offense to asians but its like zhang?

I have 12 - 4’ grow bars plus ballasts and wifi controller. Should work at least as well as the busted board you’ve got now. $50 per plus shipping.

im so broke that the issue is that the money will be hung up. I got a good pic shoing the light is fuced so hopefully they refund or ebay backs me. I shouldve paid the 150 extra for brand new warranty r spec but this light is my best perforer and i got it used- local and from a young man who prolly got caught growin in moms house.

Thumper posted a pic.

I added a link to that last post. They do produce a fair amount of heat, but they worked on my 3000 peppers I started in my guest room.

this isnt b spec- its old 301b thats just the diode. b spec has like 4000k and some extras i think. This is old standard 600. like the one that works better than any r spec in my garden.

after working at ups almost 20 years im highly averse to paying shipping companies. i paid 90 shipping for this fucking janky light Hopefully I get a full refund because as you can see its fucked. Id still pay 100 back to them because i just dont want this shit. It blasted my eyes and i saw a light out or 2 but the camera shows over 60 bad leds. thats gonna put stress on the other led and make them all burn out. I wouldnt have gotten the pics if my IT guy wasnt here LOL. I had it for ebay so figured why not. Now If he comes ack i can take a pic of bud= i dunno if hes trustworthy= i whowed him the don and its in that phase where is at its least, like after harvest but not dry. And then I showed him bbm and he said= it smells like skunk??? Im like huh? try again… oh berries? I get no skunk off bbm, but he may have not smoked all day and there may be a skunky backgrond- all i get is artificial blueberry.

3000 peppers is alot of peppers.
