Sun Blaster T5 Lighting System
Sun Blaster T5 great little light for seedlings or cuttings originally bought this light fitting to test some Uv exposure on my plants the fitting does come with its own lamp from the manufacturer.
Manufacturer info regarding the lamp
" Sun Blaster T5HO lamps provide the ideal spectrum for seed, cuttings and plant growth. Photosynthesis outputs peak between 435 nm and 680 nm. Our 6400K T5HO lamps have a spectral distribution with relative intensity peaks at 435 nm and 615 nm. These are ideal for both propagation and longer term growth.
This equates to very little wasted light energy in terms of plant growth and production.
Sun Blaster T5HO lamps are not off the shelf, our Full Spectrum light recipe was designed to provide the highest quality grow lighting available for a wide variety of indoor or CEA growing applications.
We also provide 2700K replacement lamps for growers who wish to bloom and flower. Sun Blaster T5HO lamps promote incredible health and vigour of seedlings and cuttings. Root development is superior relative to other lighting sources. While our Sun Blaster T5HO lighting is excellent for starting seeds and cuttings, it’s also able to produce enough light for full term growth. Due to the minimal heat output of our Sun Blaster T5HO lighting, fixtures can be be placed 6” - 8” above the plant canopy maximizing photosynthetic response and growth.You will grow better plants!
Unlike conventional fluorescent's, plants grown under Sun Blaster T5HO Combo’s do not have to be rotated to the centre of the lamp, as the Nanotech T5 reflector insures optimum light spread and diffusion across your growing area."
Have to say the light is well made and is of very light weight construction so you can leave it resting on the propagator without worrying it’s going to melt the lid or cave it in.
Manufacturer Info on the fitting
"Sun Blaster T5HO Combos include our T5HO Electronic ballast, 6400K lamp, power cord with on /off switch, and jumper plug with both hanging and flat surface mounting clips. The nanotech T5 Reflector spreads light wider across the plant canopy, penetrating deeper into the plant foliage, without consuming any additional power.
The Sun Blaster T5 nanotech Reflector increases the light output as much as 48% without consuming any additional power. The nanotech T5 Reflector that is included in your Combo also provides superior heat reduction by reflecting heat the was previously absorbed by the lamp and ballast into the growing area. This can help extend both lamp and ballast life."
Would defiantly recommend this light fitting .... 5 star
