Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

[Mars Hydro]

wow,you got the Mars Pro II Epistar160 and Mars Pro II Epistar80 together? what is your growing area?

Hi guys, quick question... I have Pro2 160 and 80 and was wondering if it's ok to tilt the 80 so it directs itself more to my growing area. Wasn't sure if they're built to stay horizontal or not? Happy growing

 

[Mars Hydro]

yes,and the Mars Pro II Epistar80 is a small light,can cover 1.5'x1.5'

Don't see it being a problem mate have seen few guys growing with hps in middle of there tent then led panels on tilt at either end. Won't hurt

wow,you got the Mars Pro II Epistar160 and Mars Pro II Epistar80 together? what is your growing area?

My growing area is 4' x 2', so the perfect amount of light coverage for that space

with training,the plants will be more bushy and usually give big buds
Your plants got big buds.If the plants too tall,it will affect the buds,right? i mean the stem attract more attention....

Yea keeping a even canopy lets pretty much all branches and budsites get equal light, that way all buds will be nice and dence, if you let plant get tall you will have dence buds on top and alot of fluffy airy buds on the bottom.. .

Humm,the Mars Pro II 160 can cover 2'x3' area,the Mars Pro II Epistar80 can cover 1.5'x1.5' area,if you use them in a 4'x2' area,you may hang the light higher,this two lights are with higher power.

My growing area is 4' x 2', so the perfect amount of light coverage for that space

 

[Mars Hydro]

I got it,sometimes if the plants got too strong stems or tall stems isn't a good thing....
Training is important then

Hello people. Was wondering if anyone out there could help me. I am looking at Leds and toying with the idea of Mars Hydro Lights ( also looking at 2 other brands as well). Currently I am using 5, 1000's and 6, 600's watt digital ballast Hids for 45 plants, and I am currently setting up for a 70 Plant run. So switching to Leds is going to be a considerable expense.

Questions.

1. Are the Leds worth it for a Large scale run? If so how/why

2. Are the Mars worth it, being an overseas company? What about Apollo or Advanced Leds?

3. Anyone deal with thier support? Actually measure light output of the units?

4. Any type of Satisfaction Warranty?

5. I am in Atlantic Canada, Cheapest place to buy them, or get one to try.

6. What is thier best model? Watts per Lumen/ Par output

Any Help would be appreciated

hi wildride ,welcome to Mars-hydro.
1. Are the Leds worth it for a Large scale run? If so how/why
May i know your growing space? We have different size light which can cover different growing area.From 1.5'x1.5' to 4.2x4.2',and if you hang the light higher,it can cover bigger growing area.
2. Are the Mars worth it, being an overseas company? What about Apollo or Advanced Leds?
Mars-hydro LED are one of the biggest LED grow light manufacturer in China,we have been selling LED growing since2009.We develop LED light based on the ideas which we gathering from growers on many different social media forums,such as 420magazine,FB.....and we sent our lights to our growers to test them for us,for sure,our grow light is good for cannabis growing.
3. Anyone deal with thier support? Actually measure light output of the units?
On our official website,we put the actual wattage,and most of our growers checked it after they got our products.
4. Any type of Satisfaction Warranty?
We have warranty for our Grow light,anyone purchase light after 2015 oct,we have 2 years warranty for our customers,even after the warranty range,we will always try our best to help our customers.
And no matter what you want to know about growing or our products,you can always find me here,i will always be here to help you.And we have service center at Canada.
5. I am in Atlantic Canada, Cheapest place to buy them, or get one to try.
Our official website always got the lowest price,compare to other website,as ebay or Amazon,they need to pay the service charge,our official website do not need.And we have warehouse in Canada,as you are 420member,i can give you a coupon code:sara,with this code you can get 3% off from our official website. As we have our own facatory,so we can offer the lowest price as we can on our official website.
6. What is thier best model? Watts per Lumen/ Par output
The best model will be the Mars Pro II series lights,they are the best light among all of our products so far,many grower got great result from it.This series,with upgraded chips and driver,use reflective cups,install without lens and glass cover,so they are with higher light intensity and penatrate deeper.As it has ventalation vents all around the panel,it run cooler and will last longer.

so about one month to go, what is your hanging distance now?

The Reflector 96 is hanging a mean distance of 12 inches. No light burn at all. The tent does include 2 clip fans as well as a filter and inline fan. So the air moves very well. No heat worries at all, just strength of the light itself is what concerns me. For flowering MH recommends 12 inches. So that is where I have the light hung. So far so good.
