High-Power LEDs
Default High-Power LEDs
Hello guys,

Does anyone have exp with LEDs?

I am well versed in LEDs but I lack a PAR meter. I currently have two 840 lumen (5,000K or 5,700K) set up 10 inches from the mount.

They put out about the same amount of light that is in the shade of a tree to the naked eye. I'm guessing the PAR readings would be similar to under that tree.

Does anyone have suggestions? Better LEDs? These will be on display in the living room so no just red/blue LEDs.

What are you running for LED lighting?
