The ViparSpectra 1200W (approximately 524 actual draw) is a powerful reflector-style LED designed to replace a traditional 1000 - 1200 HID unit, delivering full-spectrum illumination for both vegetative and flowering stages. With 240 high-intensity 5W Bridgelux/Epileds LEDs and secondary lenses, it offers strong light penetration and uniform canopy coverage—particularly effective over a 4′×4′ area at 24″ hanging height, expanding up to 5′×5′ for vegetation. Cooling is handled by six 4.72’’ high-speed fans alongside 0.8″ aluminum heat sinks, enabling the fixture to run roughly 70% cooler than equivalent HID lights while remaining quiet. This thermal setup supports a long lifespan—up to 100,000 hours The 1200W Grow Lights are ideal for bobbyists and large indoor gardens as they provide efficient thermal management and wide coverage. The ViparSpectra V1200 is perfect for growing 7-10 plants. Need more coverage? Consider the V900, for 6-9 plants. Need less coverage? Consider the V1000, suited for 1-2 plants.
