Mars-Hydro LED Grow Light Discussion

it seems some shipment delayed for the heavy snow, dear all my friends, if you placed order and did not get tracking number from us, please feel free to email us, we would like to get back to you ASAP.:circle-of-love:
 
does that mean infrared led is also not efficient? I know fluros emit UV because mercury burns at UV. do hid lamps emit UV? is it necessary for plant life?
 
also how does one led emit uv light and one not? I don't know much about the technology but I've seen leds cause bleached (uv burnt?) tips from "non" uv led fixtures. leds sound fascinating. I can't wait to finally get my light tomorrow. luckily I have some cfls that I can add if need be but I want to try a led only grow at least the first run.

Which model did you get? I think you will be surprised by your light. Get some sunglasses ready, not joking :trance::riskybusiness::biglaugh:

we sell a lot everyday. our mars II 1600w out of stock in 4days when it arrive:))) mars II1200w will out of stock soon. 200pieces in warehouse. so when we have lights in stock, please order ASAP, or you have to wait more than half month or pay more we ship from China for you. weather is always bad in winter, shipment delay often,so we are not sure when will the next shipment arrive. we were told 10th,Dec.
Wow, guess it's good I ordered mine when I did. Seems like you guys are doing a lot of business.

here it is! it finally arrived after 10 days. everything looks great and it maxes out my lux meter 8-12" away :) I can't wait to start growing with it. the only problem I have is that the front white bezel is scratched up pretty badly. I'm hoping this is not a used unit and that the scratches came from the factory?

I'll start a new thread on my hack, but here's a quick preview of how I solved the problem. I added a wire to each side and used them directly with the rope ratchet. I placed the pivot right above the center of gravity so I could tilt the light. Hanger wire is a bit thin, so I secured them with ties to avoid a dropped light.

Here's the difference between the stock mount and my hacked one.

In my first attempt I moved and reused the brass mount points and heavy wire, but then realized a simple bent hanger wire through holes in the sides would do the job. No changes to the light are needed.

I wish MH would supply simple bent wire mounts. They could hook on all sides. It's much more flexible and preserves the vertical headroom. In most pics I've seen, people seems to be changing the stock mounting anyway.

Awesome

I've seen a lot of grows using those lights and they do really well. Ya know what is strange about them, the 300 watt model has 3 fans, and the 600 watt model has only 2 fans. Maybe they are bigger fans, I dont know.
