Grow Lights...

murihikukid · September 16, 2016

Hi...I wonder if anybody has bought LED Grow Lights/Bulbs on ebay ..I am in New zealand and I am reluctant to buy bulbs from China till I contact somebody who has bought bulbs and found them satisfactory .....Now due to the sky high shipping cost unfortunately I cannot buy from North America ....I just cannot afford it...So any advice from any members will be gratefully received...
Thanks
Ron

There are only a few manufacturers of the diode inside the LED light. Most brand names of lights are just assembled from purchased components. If a light seller will disclose to you the manufacturer of their diode, that is a big plus in my eyes. Most of them will not.

Here is a link to a seller with a good reputation, at least from what I read: http://www.a51led.net/faqs
