FourOak, 1000 watt draw at the wall LED will likely out preform any 1000 watt HID with the exception of maybe a Ceramic Metal Halide. I will be experimenting with a small 315 watt CMH next myself. Every manufacture wants our money and many are willing to twist the truth a bit to get it. I'll trust doing actual side by side comparisons myself. Remember the larger LED will weigh more than a hood and bulb of your HID lighting. Unless your running a one piece ballast/hood combination. Like most CMH are set up. Most digital ballast and old reliable magnetic ballasts are remote from your hood.
