Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

So I've bought my first light and tent from Mars hydro. It was a 4x4 tent and a Mars 11 1200 watt. Did very well with it so when I was setting up a friend to grow I bought him the same. Then I wanted a bigger flower tent and Sara took care of me on a 4x8. Well built and works as it should as well as sara's here to take care of us. I've gone with diodes in the flower tent and now Mars has some diode lights. I'm looking at maybe getting 3 of the sp250 lights for a 4x4 area in my big tent. I have a quick question on those. Are they dimmable?
Mars and Sara have always taken care of us here on 420 and have been one of the best and reliable sponsors here.
Well done Mars.

Awesome purchase Derby! The sp-250 I believe are Dimmable and you can also remove the power supply to move it out of the tent to reduce heat!

I love the SP-150s I’ll have an updated video on here later today!

The SP-250 are using special connection way, which you can add the power cords longer, buy from us or using the ones from your local shop. And then move the power supply outside. Also you can adjust the power supply to help with the wattage as well, Haha, the new light with so many functions. :Rasta:

Believe it - that's Canadian awesome right there. dr.h00k grows cannabis with the strength of ten men ;) . What other country has a Maple Syrup Mafia, LMFAO?
 
Hey Derbybud, I meant to include these in my previous post. I was going to edit them in, but was concerned that you might not notice. Mars-Hydro has uploaded videos to YouTube that show how to adjust the output of an SP250 and how to lengthen the power supply (driver) wiring in order to remove it - and its heat - from the grow space.

How to adjust your Mars-Hydro SP250:

How to separate power supply from light assembly:
 
Nice find TS!

Hi Kismet, really? I never surf, must be fun. But I would prefer more to stay in the beach and enjoy the sunshine coz I cannot swim. :ganjamon:

Hi Derbybud, thank you for the long time support. The SP-250 can adjust the power supply to help the wattage down, but it seems the lowest is around 130w as well, so might not dim too much. And from some of the customer's feedback, the light is strong, 3 of them might be too strong for the 4x4 space. So you can buy two of them first. :)
 
130w is around the old MarsHydro 300 but with wider coverage!

You're my hero baby! Great job. Extracting that heat generating bit from the grow area is such an important option for any heat challenged (almost all) growing setups.

Haha, thank you! Hope you like it. :D
