My experience of lighting...I've tried LED, T5 and Halides. Halides give great colouration and really good growth rates but cost a bomb to run. T5s didn't really work for me, they lost the colour intensity and growth was not as good but I wasn't on the ATI's. LEDs have been the best so far, crees need to be carefully adjusted because they can be way to powerful, I've seen zoas turn white under badly set crees. They do grow well though and the colouration is as good as halides. They look so much brighter when the blues are on. Great for taking pics too. The Bridgelux have been really good, cheap to buy and do a good job, growth isn't quite as fast and colouration can be slightly lower than normal but overall they are pretty good. LEDs are my preffered choice now.

Led technology has moved on massively in the last couple of years I still want a vertex illumina
Seems less is the preferred choice now would still like to try an ati hybrid aswell tho

My razor has 2 channels I run the whites on 70% and blues on 95% purely because I like the bluer look,at night have it on pure blues with a Fiji blue aquaray strip for a mega pop and always had good growth at that
