4 auto 2 photo lighting???

On alibaba you can buy directly from the manufacturers, kingbrite has excellent lamps at very low prices, MW drivers and samsung or osram diodes. I advise you to take from there, many lamps on the market are only rebrands of excellent Chinese products. For the size of your growbox I would recommend 200w (if you manage the height well) 300w (if you don't feel like adjusting the height often)

Some slept on brands include Vivosun Aglex (personally use it) Phlizon T-Lampy Just because they aren't advertised in your fav YouTubers channel does not make them bad lights. You can pay almost a fraction of what a major will cost and get similar results hope this helps. Had two seperate cafe racer plants one under my 600w vipar and the other under my 200w aglex (had it closer to plant) however it produced excellent flower .

Buenas compañero, yo tengo un tsw2000 y nunca lo use para florar, depende el espacio que tengas. Incluso he florado con ts1000 de mars hydro y han salido duras como rocas!!! Todo depende del presupuesto amigo

I just upgraded from some basic lights to a set of Phlizon PL-4500 450w lights. Their priced right for me and work just as good IMHO. Comes with far red and uv lights. Worth looking at atleast. Best of luck on yr grow!!

I run marshydrotsw2000 and 2 vipraspectra xs1500. If I where to purchase another light it would be another.......wait for it....... Vipraspectra lol. The lighting itself and build quality are much better than the marshydro. The 300watts from the vipraspectras do the plants much better than the 300watts from the Marshydro.

Question is so gottagrowsometime can scam a contest.

@whiteybulger1814 -- there is no diode created on earth that has this efficacy... even lm301 6500K tops out at 3.1umol/J. The bins available for 3000k and 3500k are even lower. The osram reds are much lower... cree makes a far better 660nm diode, so if these are ferraris, then they shoul dhave used the cree red diodes that top out at 2.9umol/J ... osram are low efficacy and cheaper parts. they only account for 4-5% of diodes, so it's not a major impact, luckily. Not something to worry too much about cause it'd take 20 years to make up cost difference in electricity savings for that context. the top-end cree 660nm diodes are 10x more expensive. this is a red flag that they are lying or manipulating the math... they don't even calculate PPFD correctly on their products brouchure... lol.. that's not a good sign, either. https://grow.ecogtech.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Eco-Growtech-2022-Brochure-Digital-April-6-2022-compressed.pdf i'd wager that are using PPFD to calculate the 3.2 umol/J values which is not how you do it... umol/s / watts = efficacy... not PPFD / watts. The latter allows you to make the umol/J be whatever you want by simply changing size of area of coverage. i'm not calling you out.. it's just reality of the diodes that are manufactured on earth... if you got some alien tech, you can exceed 3.1umol/J. This particular manufacturer may have great lights, but they are fibbing a bit.. if the diode count doesn't equare to 0.25w/diode, they are not top-tier lights no matter what their spec sheets promise. always take the base info and reference samsung.com spec sheet for the lm301 diodes.. you can see everything i say is fact on their spec sheets. Any light that is legitimately a 3.1umol/J is probably too cool white / higher CCT than you want for flowering plants. With best cree 660nm diodes and top-bin lm301 diodes run at 0.25w/diode, you could maybe hit 3.0 ... maybe a bit over that. 3.2 is a blatant lie by the manufacturer, sadly. hopefully, that's the only corner they cut.

Hi there Mars Hydro all the way .. affordable and produce great results 👌 Best of luck 🌱

Hola !!!! Mars hidro es una de las lamparas mas usadas en este sitio. Y puedo ver buenos resultados. Suerte

To be honest you should go and check out the Efficacy rates and out puts on any light you buy the higher the put put in umol the better and same goes with the efficacy I'm running a EGT 1100w 8 bar LED for eco growtech and this thing puts out 3520umol/J at a Efficacy rating of 3.2 which is bar far 1 of the highest outputs in the grow light industry and this thing is a Ferrari for a light The MarsHydro SP3000 had a output of Output 824umol/S PPF in total, with a efficacy 2.8 umol which isn't bad at all i can't find anything on the AC Infinity Iongrid T24 to indicate what it's output and efficacy rating is and I know people who use the MarsHydro and have great success so I would go with the mars

The mars has a much better diode count, which means they run better / longer. 300w / 960 diodes = .3125 w per diode for mars --- spec sheets at samsung.com are trustworthy. these diodes are tested at .25w/diode. Anything above reduced efficacy and longevity. So, this is a pretty important factor between these two lights. Other factors like bin of diode mitigate efficacy loss but does not mitigate longevity loss of running hotter for 5+ years... the ac infinity will dim faster. 560/260 = .4643 w per diode... much higher.. this light will dim faster, run hotter. dimming is an increasing rate of loss, fwiw. usually these "50k" hours promises are when teh light is 90% of original intensity. It may take 50k hours to get to 90 but it takes 10-15k to get to 80% of original... so this actualyl is a big deal as far as true cost of ownership Price is roughly similar. The AC infinity light does come with some useful features built into it. I care more about the aspects of the light related to growing weed than a power outlet timer i can buy and re-use for any light. The other reason i'd maybe make a different choice is shape of grow area. The AC infinity will probably spread the light a bit wider.. it's a slightly wider frame of diodes. 300w vs 260w -- 1 s ft different in coverage make the 300w a better option. This is a pretty close match here. i think the SP3000 is more efficient, but there are other reasons that could tip the scale otherwise... so, i'd pick the one that best covers your garden area... might get 1-2 less good years out of the AC infinity light, though. That's a hefty chunk of cost, really.

Lighting is the mkst important mars is a good light nòt sure on tge other brand i run a viparspectra its like running a mustang my buddy runs an 8 bar eco grotech and thats like a cadillac. If your looking for a secret sauce a good light is the answer for sure
