Earth LED bulbs

[fogcutter]

Has anyone seen / used these for a setup? Seems like you'd only have to add some blues to have a dimmable LED solution. I'm not sure about this particular bulb but they list Cree's as the LED manufacturer on some of the other models.

I have not used this brand but it does look like the kelvin rating may be on the low side. 2800k is way to warm and would make the corals look yellow/brown. The 6000k would be fine as a growth bulb but if you wanted better colors you will want to supplement it with some actinic lighting.
