The LEDs don't have "Cree" in front of them. I've ordered a few more blues and reconfigured my ratio to 2 whites to 1 royal blue. The color is perfect for me and have also extended my photo period. I'm very pleased with the outcome. If I had a decent camera I'd take some pics. Pm me if you want to see the colors yourself.

The deal with a DIY is satisfaction of doing it yourself, not just the cost savings...but that helps. If you cannot afford a factory fixture I can't imagine paying someone to make it for you would be cheaper...in fact I would think it would be much more expensive. These are tedious and time consuming to cut, drill, solder, wire and analize once built. Balancing work and family and other hobbyies It took me 3 weeks to build, carving time where I could.
Also, what if it fails in a month, there is no recourse for you. Maybe there's somebody else here that will do it but seems a longshot at best. I'd suggest spending a good amount of time researching and planning your array, gathering the materials and then slowly build your light. Also, is someone is local to you to assist would be best...You've done without it this long right?
