PAR and FC Measurements are decent so long as you keep it close to the plant
PAR measured with an Apogee MQ500 Quantum meter, and a Urceri MT912 FC/Lux Meter.After 10 minutes of operation, the housing clocked in at 135F and stayed there, measured with an infrared thermometer pointing at the back center and surrounding area of the housing.Measured wattage draw is 48.3W on a watt meter.PAR and FC measurements taken at 12", 6.5" and 5"12", 110 PPFD, 215 FC6.5", 350 PPFD, 800 FC5", 600 PPFD, 1150 FCFor reference a 2 strip 4,000K Led Shoplight from Homedepot puts out about 125PPFD at 5", and around 350-400FC, so this is at least 3x more powerful. The only issue is the area of coverage. The PPFD drops off dramatically from the center despite the COB lens, so I couldn't see you using this to grow more than 1 plant.I bought this for an orchid tank and for what I need, it fits the bill for my requirements. Not a great fan of blurple lights for orchids, but I wasn't ready to drop $150 on a Horticultural Lighting Group set of Quantum panels.

Works fine ut it's pink light.
I didn't realize that this LED fixture was going to glow pink. In the past I've only used fluorescent grow lights which are white light. You wouldn't want this for spotlighting a plant in a living area because of the color. But otherwise its fine and does the job of provinding extra light to plants I winter-over in the house.

My plants were not getting enough sun light
I moved to a condo with almost no sun facing windows. My plants have been struggling since I moved so thought I'd give a grow Light a try.I shoved a coffee plant in the corner with virtually no sunlight and it's been 4 weeks with the light and it does look better.It gives off a purple light and it looks nice in my condo.I've got it set up on a timer and that makes it very easy to ensure plants are getting light they need

Great value!!
I purchased this light due to its power rating, price, it’s water proof, and that it provides a full spectrum of light. I’ve had it working for a few days and so far so good. My seeds turned into seedlings and I haven’t had any problems with it yet. It’s very easy to use and seems like a quality product! I will try updating my review in about 6 months...

Light up your plant
I bought some plants and they weren’t fairing so well due to my new green thumb. My mom suggested getting a grow lamp to give them some extra tcl as a last ditch resort. So far my plants have made a turn for the better and with it being led I don’t have to worry about my electric bill having a huge increase.

Very good starter grow light!
This grow light is great for a beginner like me! Comes with some hanging hardware and a mounting bracket. Very good bang for your buck. Plant produces enough energy to feed plant growth competitively vs normal sun light.2 cons: no on off switch and light get very hot to the touch.

Heat death, poor thermal junction contact
Used for about 2 months since purchase at 12-16 hours per day in an open area with a fan mounted to the top to dissipate heat. Despite excellent cooling, the device failed with LED death due to heat.I took it apart to see why. There is an aluminum spacer between the LED board and the housing to transfer the heat. The interface between the LED board and the spacer is fine, but between the spacer and the housing there's almost no contact (see pictures). LED died of heat death since there was no way to effectively sink heat away.While it was working it was a decent light, but I would not purchase again.

Good for my indoor plants/herbs.
Nice light, very convenient and easy to use. The hooks make it easy to hang over the plants. Gets a bit warm but not hot to the touch. Plants seem to be growing better than without it.
