I call bullshit. :D

The side of the LED plants are even reaching towards the HPS side of the room.
He give no info on yield, just a made up 19% number with nothing to back it up.
He shows live plants with no dried flowers.

I say Magnum is trying to sell lights... :D

I still use HID and I'm NOT an LED expert. All of my LED knowledge is from other parties or research so I can't say from first hand experience one way or another. I also run a medical grow consulting business in SoCal.

Let's do the math for the gullible:

Since the magnum sales guy says its a "commercial grow" Let's assume that the HID side got 1g/w.

2163w + 19% (more that the LED supposedly got) = 2574g
(2574g = 88.75 ounces = 5.55 pounds.)

2163g / 2163w HID = 1g/w
2574g / 660w LED = 3.9g/w

If ANYONE buys this, I have a bridge for sale. :D
