These will last longer, no worries of breaking, and the energy use is extremely limited. Here at the university we were fortunate enough to have some prototypes offered with some cost, but the resulting product is amazing and the response from plants, though not yet quantitatively analyzed, has been outstanding. Premade ones are usually found at hydroponics shops, but be prepared to have the local government watch you if you buy too many!
