Any insight, better or worse than Mars Hydro

Just curious about California Lighting Solar extreme 250. Are they garbage or not.

they’re good lights the older style used to run fairly hot with the cobs in them I believe the newer ones have groups of the smaller LED diodes not sure on the heat

I purchased a Mars Hydro from their eBay store. They have the FC-3000 on auction every week. I wound up getting it for 167.00 dollars. Its 300 watts , Samsung LM301B diodes and they are on 4 bars in a 24"x24" setup. That California light is 200 watts and only an 8.5" x 8.5" square. May be a fine light but you can get a better value than that. And with a better spread you get more penetration of light to the lower plant.
HLG runs sales all the time and they make great lights.
