So wow... after reading all the stuff they have posted, if that's true then JEEZ that's one hell of a light. Anyone here use it or seen it being used?

A couple light reads, those are the most informationally packed portions, i'd still like to see some other stuff not by them though.

I'm buying one for my upcoming grow. They are also great energy savers. A 200W PURple light is supposed to equal a 600W HPS light.
They also produce less heat.

They're good my friend uses one. HPS are still better, but only on large grows. Smaller space's (less than 2m2) are better with these lights, as you have less heat problems. Theyre good to have in combination with HPS lights. I'm planning to get two PURple lights for the corners of my room as my temperature is about 26-27oC at the moment, which is perfect, but adding another HPS would make venting more difficult.

Just consider though that a PURplr light and ballast costs more than an HPS, plus you need at least two bulbs for each one.
Try a son-t-argo bulb for smaller spaces. There only 400w but have a great light spectrum for flowering and vegative. I use on in my new vegative room. They make plants very bushy with short intenode spacing. And only cost slightly more than a 400w HPS.

Eco-light is the same as nurturlite, but cost less. Don't know any net suppliers for them though. You'll have to google it. I get mine ordered for me from local grow shop, which is great as i can pay in cash.

What do you mean with ballast? Why do you need two PURple lights?
Wouldn't a PURple light save you money in the long run because it uses much less energy. I don't know about the US but here in the Netherlands energy is pretty expensive.

Yea it will save you money on electricty. I'm just talking about the start up costs. You need two bulbs as you need a blue bulb for vegative and a red or purple for flowering. Purple will work for both, but isn't perfect.
