Hey guys,
I'm glad I came and checked this thread out.
I'm using the Lumen Max 3 DE reflector w/ the SLS dual 250 HQI ballast and it is GREAT.
I like the Lumen Max 3's because they look a lot nicer than LumenArc reflectors. The spread is GREAT. If you use this combo, go for a 12wk to 14k light you won't regret it. The reflector is square so it covers a lot of space.
When I was first doing a lot of research into MH, I PM'ed Sanjay on RC and he recommended these reflectors to me, so I think that is pretty strong opinion.
Quinn at Prairierefeefsupplies.ca has been fantastic, he knows his stuff really well and is AWESOME to deal with.

I hope this helps, message me if you want to to ask me about the reflectors or whatever. SLS products are really well built.
