Barrina 3FT 5000K Daylight White Full Spectrum LED Grow Lights for Indoor Plants - 180W (6 x 30W, 1000W Equivalent) Linkable T8 Grow Light Bulbs & Strips, 6-Pack - Perfect for Hydroponics, Greenhouses & Home Gardening

Not too long ago I got into hydroponic growing with a small vegetable setup. I have been spending a lot of time trying out different ideas, build layouts, etc through the process. Included in that is time finding just the right lighting. I've been unhappy with most of the lights out there that don't cost a fortune. I'm growing various salad greens, bell peppers, strawberries and herbs mostly. I read a comment somewhere online about these lights and that they were good lights at a great price. So I gave them a shot next.Pros:- They are very bright lights, with a clean daylight balanced color to them.- They are actually 3ft long (well, the 3ft version is anyways), others are measured much shorter I've found than what they claim.- They link together easily using the included daisy-chain cords.- They come with directional shields to help focus the light spill.- They are lightweight and have multiple mounting options included.Cons:- They only come with 3 cords to plug them directly into the wall with, so there's no way to use all 6 independently. You will always need to have 2 daisy chained with one outlet plug.- The power cords are very short and the switch is in the center of it in an awkward place (pick and end!).- They aren't adjustable power. I knew that going in, but now I can't help but think how cool it would be if they were. Probably never at this price point.All in all, honestly I couldn't be happier. I bought a wire bakers rack (36" wide X 14" deep X 54" tall). Mounted two lights to each shelf area and used a single slide on shield on the front side light leaving the others open. Wrapped all sides of the shelves with a mylar blanket, threw in a fan with some Kratky style bins of veggies and I'm off! I'll be using these on my next larger area build out when I can get to it.
