Looks like a pretty good light and it has good PAR numbers. It uses Samsung LM301H diodes and a Mean Well driver which are quality components. Looks like it also has Epistar diodes for 660nm UV/IR ? which is not as good as other brands on the market (i.e. CREE and OSRAM). I'm surprised there is only a 1-year warranty; most grow lights have a 3 or 5-year warranty. It also looks like the cables are exposed but that seems to be common with DIY lights.
Can you provide a link to the grow light so I can look at the specs?

Hmm not really. I created a list of best lights for a 5'x5' coverage area but it's a little outdated; I need to do one for 2020 https://www.mrgrowit.com/post/2019/05/06/best-5-led-grow-lights-2019-5x5-coverage-area
