Omega 1000w 400v DE HPS Dual Spectrum review

 "omega 1000w 400v double end de dual spectrum review"

Hi,

Heres my review of the omega DE 1000w dual spectrum ballast and lamp.
This is a great unit, dimmable to 600w and superlumins to 1200w!
I have had some of my best results with these - 2 on 825w yielding 60+ zips in the same area LED gives 35-40.
Now, they arent as efficient as LED ( I was getting 0.75gpw and LED hit 1.34GPW ) but time, area etc all has to be factored in as well - and they fave huge buds although not as tight as LED.
They produce a LOT of heat and I never managed to run them on even 1000w without light burn/bleaching but you can really see the blue spectrum in them as well as the orange.

Price is also a consideration - These are not cheap, but also they are not expensive and have a huge warranty - I think mine were 5 years for ballasts!
The lamps went after about 3-4 grows unfortunately though and after the first grow you lost yield respectively.

Would I recommend them? Yes - IF you can deal with the above.
The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.
