I ordered 19 lights through a group order. They arrive tomorrow. I'll let you know how they turn out.

I'll take before and after pics so you can compare MH lighting to the LED.

According to my power meter, my MH lights cost 21 cents per hour to run. I'll let you know what the LED lights use for power.

For a cheaper entry level LED fixture I would say a maxspect G2. I have one and it's not bad! I plan to change it for a Radion soon.

If you have a bigger budget, the best fixtures available right now in my opinion seems to be the Ecotech Radion (you would need two) and the Vertex Illumina. I like clustered and optics less LEDs designs like those.
