Col, I am not sure an LED setup is required.
A bog standard lamp and 1 daylight bulb could be a lot easier to maintain. No idea how much it costs to leave a lamp on constantly for 10 hours? (based on during the dark hours).
Yes having a rig kitted out with LED`s would be neater and probably last forever but as an experiment I would go old school and if the results were great then fork out for a decent set up.

Next year i want to try LED and also a bit of hydro... Maybe rent some ground at this rate Colin
