Will the SP6500 fit in a 4x4 tent?

The coverage of SP6500 is 3x5. Due to the long design of SP6500, it is more suitable for the rectangular coverage area. If it is used in the square coverage area, some corners can not be well illuminated. For the 4x4 area, I recommend you to use FC4800, which can better cover every corner of the plant
 
Hello. I was recommended to reach out here as i am looking to replace my 2 x Vipraspectra reflector 900's.

I wanted to get two FC3000 or two FC-E3000, but im a little conflicted since FC models have Samsung diodes while FC-E has BrightLux diodes, but on the other hand FC-E models have UV which would be an added benefit. If you would happen to have some advice for what would be the better option here for someone running 4 plants in a 5x5 that would be very much appreciated. I'm also wondering if there is any possibility of a discount code for the EU store as the 420MAGAZINE voucher is not valid on the site, and one got to try to save some money where one can.

For an area of 5x5, I recommend you to use one FC6500 or FC-E6500 rather than two FC3000 because the PPFD of 6500 will be higher and the plants will grow better.

If you want the best value for money, I recommend the FC-E6500 to you. Fc-E6500 is now in pre-sale on our website. You can get a 3% discount with the discount code "420magazine". Our discount code cannot be used on the EU website.

Thank you for the reply.

The FC-E6500 does not have IR or UV diodes, and i was therefore recommended the FC-E3000 x2 instead, with the added recommendation to add another or 2 at a later time. Im wondering why a single FC-E6500 would be a better choice seeing as it lacks the two additional types of diodes?

We usually recommend that growers use separate UV and IR light bars, and we've written a blog post about why, You can check it out if you are interested

Thank you. I read through the article and got some more insight. In that case i will follow your advice and probably end up with the FC-E6500 and some UV and IR bars separate.

Any reliable recommendations for this in Europe you would be willing to share?

I don't know much about this.
I know that there are many stores selling this kind of bar, and the price is reasonable, usually around ten dollars
