Lumens per watt is totally useless for our application. Even PAR is showing to be semi useless at this point.
Again, I hope jda will chime in since I don't want to misquote the info he has. To sum it up, it shows that MH, T5 and LED have the same output per watt for our usage. Pretty interesting stuff and I hope he sees this
Lumens per watt was mentioned only as it refers to lighting efficiency - defending my point on power consumption. I wasn't saying Lumens = coral growth. I get that PAR is likely not even accurate enough esp after reading some of sanjay's data on the topic.
