New light

Post by Pork Chop Express »

Will be grabbing a new light next week as abit of an upgrade. I'm currently running the Facida 1000watt (135watt) and I was planning on getting the below 2000watt (260watt) version for £140.

My question is: is the below Mars Hydro worth the extra money? It's 300w so more powerful and does come with a 5yr warranty. But at twice the price is it a good investment? Or should I go with the cheaper Facida that's 260watt??

Thanks all ImageImage

I’d absolutely say ask Keeno about Invisible sun lights and get a discount on the best light on the market. I own 3 and ditched my mars hydro

I forgot to add that the mars hydro light in the picture has an £80 voucher to be used with it.

So it would be £240. And the Facida £140.

For £240 it seems like great bang for buck?

It has to to with the Quality of the light emitting diodes in the invisible sun fixture versus the other you are looking at.

Invisible Sun utilizes Samsung LM301H diodes, made to grow weed. It's a superior light, and worth the scratch if you have it.

Something like this then? Image

If you're going with LM301B, I would recommend SpiderFarmer...I have experience with them and they grow really well.

I cant speak to the others with any experience, but i have a pretty good understanding of LED's...

Not trying to force your decision. Just a little helpful insight, perhaps.
