Schould i buy another more expensive lamp with more watts or can i just buy a second xs 1500 ?

Dopacksstarted grow question 4y ago

Does it make sense to buy another Viperspectra xs1500 with 150watts? So my question is, if the power of 2 same led lamps add up together?

Yes both together would equal 300 watts. Add another it's 450 watts..

As hempkid said. Also the beauty of having to lamps is if temps get to high you can turn one lamp off to cool down then when that comes back on you could turn the other lamp off.

Flip light schedule 1 week into flowering and I need to change lighting schedule, complete reversal from night/day due to cold night tempswhen lights are on. Only way to achieve would be to have 24 hours of dark. There maybe an impact but warmer day temps I'm sure will benefit in the end. Thoughts

Bloom light on heat goes too high?When turning on the bloom setting the temps seem to be getting up to 84 on the very top of my tent and around 80-82 by the bud sites. Is this too high? Is there any problem turning the bloom high power switch off to let it cool down for a half hour once or 2 a day if too hot?

Would this be an upgrade or downgrade?Currently using a 400w HPS on a 18/6 schedule for my autoflower. I've just seen this being sold on FB and wondered whether this might be as efficient/better/worse than what I already have Appreciate that it's a 'budget' light, but still looks pretty good 🤷‍♂️🏼
