LED growing is the future
We've invested a lot of time and money developing the most advanced LED growing light on the market for a very affordable price. Using LEDs, many of the problems that have plauged indoor growers for years simply disappear. We feel the time has come for LED lights to take their place as the de-facto standard in indoor growing!
There is no doubt about it, LEDs are betterLED grow lights are significantly better than traditional HID lights. If you are still uncertain, all four of these categories offer compelling reasons why you should switch to LED growing today!
Less Heat, Energy, and Pollution
Reducing heat and energy is one of the biggest places where LED technology shines. The number of different ways LEDs save energy is mind boggling, here are a few ways:
- LEDs produce more light per watt than do incandescent bulbs
- Light from LEDs is directional while bulbs require wasteful reflectors
- LEDs can be made for targeted wavelengths meaning energy is not wasted on the rest of the spectrum
And lets not forget about the heat that you have to deal with when using traditional lights. With LED lights:
- No extra cooling is needed
- No more burning plants
- There is less risk of fire
- The temperature of your house will not increase
- The light can be touched and handled anytime, without fear of burns
If you are an environmentalist then I don't need to remind you that reducing wasted energy will help planet Earth, but you
might not know that LEDs themselves do not contain the toxic metals found in HPS (High Pressure Sodium) and MH (Metal Halide) lamps! That's less hazardous waste to deal with, allowing for easier recycling and safer disposal.
Also, did you know many HID lights such as MH can actually be dangerous to humans due to harmful UV radiation?
Save Your MoneyI'm sure you have realized that saving energy means that you are saving money, right?
Just in case you weren't sure, we have done the calculations for you
According to the US Dept of Energy the average
price of power is 10.7 cents per kilowatt-hour. We will compare the power consumption of a 400 watt HID with our 100 watt LightBlaze 400 grow light. Here are the costs for just 3 13-week cycles:
- 400 watt HPS : $280.44
- 100 watt LED : $70.11
Now for the kicker... not only do these save money while running, but they actually last 6 times as long!
- Average HID Light : 10,000 hours (1.1 years)
- LightBlaze LED Light: 60,000 hours (6.9 years)
Produce Excellent GrowthOk so LEDs are good for the environment, save
energy, save
money, and last forever. But all that is meaningless if they can't induce growth.
We have done extensive
in-house testing, and are proud to say that LED growing has proven every bit as effective as current HID
solutions!
But on top of that, we feel that this technology can be improved even more to completely surpass
all other options. The LightBlaze
400 is our first generation led grow light and we are very pleased
with it, but we have more advancements planned - stay tuned!
We are using our light right now and are very excited by our results. Not only does this light save time, money, and energy but it actually performs WELL!
Of course we aren't terribly surprised by the success; we did extensive groundwork before creating this light. We knew it would work because there is real scientific research behind it.
Since our product is so new, the only way to know that we aren't lying is to continue to watch our blog and listen for customer reviews. We are confident our lights will meet or exceed your expectations.
Simpler. Safer.Traditional HID lights are way more trouble than
they are worth. Not only do you need the lamp, you'll need a ballast, a reflector, and a cooling system; not to mention the
big heavy power supply you'll be tethered to.
The LightBlaze 400 has none
of these problems. There is virtually no heat, no reflector needed, and the power supply is built directly into the light
along with the 1 fan cooling system! Simply plug the light in, hang it up and you are good to go, what could be easier?
As far as safety, there is no shortage of stories about big indoor-growing operations tragically ending in
devastating fires.
The heat generated by a MH or HPS lamp is more than enough to ignite nearby combustible objects. With LED growing this risk
is greatly
diminished. Especially for the high-volume grower, it makes economical sense to switch to LED grow lights as soon as possible.
Other things to consider:
- No heat signatures
- No power spikes
- Much less fragile
- No light-related plant damage
