Ok,after weeks of waiting and pursuading i've finaly got a LED growlight,it's only 14 watts but it look okay,i'll keep you updated on any increase or decrease in growth
This is what it looks like in my room (my room's not pink usually,it's the light ) And this is it close up

If nothing else it looks very attractive! Gosh darn now I want one!

Good luck with it Daniel!!

Good luck with the led panel . Hope your plants grow way tall under it !

Thanks!
But... grey,you think it's pretty,try staring at it for 10 seconds,you wont be able to see anything pretty after that
Matt,i'l keep you posted

Oh I can imagine, I get that with my fluorescent tube light haha. Well, let us know how your plants like it in future !

Well,it may have only been 2 days,but my plants are already loving it,my cobra's are starting to grow new pitchers,my D.capensis' are growing much better,one of them,had been uncurling two leaves relly slowly,now,they're almost fully uncurled,about a week faster than i thought it would My ceph seems to like it,his non-carnivorous leaves are getting bigger all the time,and as a test,i'm putting one of my flytraps (my tester one xD) under and seeing if the light can knock it out of dormancy,if it can,the light has my favour
All in all,i love it!

How far would you say the light is from your plants? I'm tempted to purchase one myself. I have a shelving unit that my plants are on so I could rig it up there.. hmm.

It's about a foot or so away (pretty far,i know) But the light is very intense,try and keep the area around it dark-ish or the light diffuses

Good luck with getting one!

Cheers, where did you get yours?

Squirtoman, how many square feet can the light cover at the height you have it at?

about 1 or to in the day,but at night,it lights up my whole room
Grey:i bought mine from ebay so i can't help you much sorry,if you search "red and blue LED grow light" I'm sure something will pop up

Thanks =] Again, good luck with it!
