June Meeting on LED

Post by halak »

At the June 22nd meeting in Herdon, VA, a representative from RapidLED (http://www.rapidled.com/) will give a presentation and a workshop on LED fixtures. At the workshop, you have the opportunity to build your custom LED fixture with the guidance from the experts right there! If you'd like to order materials to participate in the workshop, they are giving GWAPA members a 15% discount on their Internet prices (excluding Neptune and Ecotech products). We will post 15% discount code on the member area soon. You can view RapidLED's LED kits/prices at their website.

Note: 15% discount is only available for active GWAPA members. Membership is $20.

Attendees that do not order materials for the workshop are welcome to watch to learn what's involved with building your own LED fixture that's optimized for plants.

Lastly, please answer the survey questions above so that we can plan for the meeting.

You may want to call them up and ask them what they recommend based on your goal.

For what it's worth, I did my whole setup using parts from Rapid LED, and have been very pleased with what I got. It's still going strong nearly two years after the build.

Is anyone coming from DC? If so, would you be willing to bring me along?

Due to the sudden death of the Mother of a very close friend - and the fact that the funeral service is Saturday afternoon at 1:00 PM I will unfortunately NOT be able to attend the LED meeting on Saturday. I have been studying LED systems and was really looking forward to see some hands on work putting some of these systems together - but it is not to be - I wish everyone a great meeting - I am sure it will be.

What an awesome meeting! Congrats to Chris (Chrisoli) for winning the donated LED light. I'm so jealous, but I'm looking forward to ordering m own lights in the future.
