I got these as a cheap alternative to a therapy lamp for Seasonal Affective Disorder (Dunedin winter). Offical lamps cost $250+. These have worked great in lieu of the official SAD Lamps.
My plants have reacted well, even managed to do successful Monstera and Pilodendron cuttings mid winter!
They look stylish when paired with a nice fixture. No more industrial looking grow lights.
They are just on the verge of being too bright, when used in a living space. Go with 10w if youre just using these for supplemental lighting and not help with mood etc.
They do get a little hot. Had a few burned leaves. But this is my fault for not watching for growth spurts closely enough.
Please keep selling these! I am going to be stocking up :-)
