These are my LED lights inside my grow tent I do not rely on them solely for light as my window recieve bright light from 8:00 to 14:00 then the lights come on as the winter sun is getting low and by the afternoon the room recieves very little light. Will do another update after a month or so to see how the Orchies are liking this...

Thanks for the link! Keep us updated about how well it performs. I'm also planning to use LED this coming winter.

Very cool, I have used LEDs for 5ish months with very good success. I, also, keep my LEDs in a grow tent area. Now that summer is coming around I need to get a cool mist humidifier. My warm mist one heats up my grow tent.
