Best thing about this light is that it will work with bars removed... so you can start your seedlings under just one bar with dimming of 25% ( 10% increments if ran through AC inf controller). Saves a fortune in energy, just adding the bars as your grow spreads out. Lumateks own tech support guys told me it was ok when I spoke to them on the phone as well
thats just silly
@@eggspanda2475 WHY... I spoke to Lumateks tech guys on the phone and they said each bar would still work at optimal performance and efficacy on each individual bar and it was OK for me to do so.
@@eggspanda2475 Why, when Lumateks own tech support guys told me it was ok when I spoke to them on the phone.
Its actually really handy @eggspanda2475
The issue I´ve found with leaving only 1, 2 or 3 bars on is that the dimmer does not work properly. The bar is actually at 75% when the dimmer is at 25%. Check de wattage used when having less than 3 bars on.
Shane stoned out of this world
he always is lol
You jealous
Hey guys Shanes here and we are testing this new led .
How very dare you 🙈🙉🙊
@@richardgrimbleby7853 nah. he doesnt smoke weed
Got to pay a little more for reliability lumatek products keep on going strong through the five year warranty period
Seems Like Shane smoked a little one before the Video 😊 great fixture..but my next light will be another Migro Aray 3. So then i have a Sanlight EVO 3 80, a Migro Aray 2 and a Migro Aray 3. And i have an eye on the Seedling Light too
Love the reviews! Would be awesome to see a review on Faven under canopy lighting
Why is there not a single growlight with similar quality and prices to the ones using LM301 chips but with 1500-2000K instead of 3000+? Almost all the indoor strains were bred under HPS and sometimes even just LPS with about 1500K, using now those 3500K LEDs along with their general difference in power, penetration, single-point distribution etc. makes it really, really hard to adjust everything for breeding those old/base genetics. The most modern ones of cause are already adapting to LED light but the sheer intensity along with that "itching" blue spectrum can promote all kinds of leaf issues, lockouts, upshooting, etc. It's just a very different environment for the plants sitting in cold but highly intense light vs. highly warm infrared radiating HPS lamps.
Please bring that topic up and discuss it with real breeders, not only growers because they often can't attribute those effects clearly enough to their causes.
It would be really cool to have a light in the quality and price range of Kingbrite or similars but with seperate control of red, blue and green. Then you could simply mix the perfect spectrum for your grow, depending on genetics, environment etc. (especially in colder climates the plants really miss that huge amount of red and infrared)
I´ve had issues growing old school genetics on LEDS. Specially anything with haze in them. Plants that have been selected for years to perform well under HPS and MH lamps don´t adjust well to LEDs. You have to keep the dimmer at 75% until the third or fourth week of flowering to prevent leaf burn and other issues. I usually only use 100% the last 3-5 weeks of flowering. (Currently using LUMATEK 600w pro 2.7 in 4x4 space)
I now have changed mother plants selecting the seeds that performed well under LEDs and newer genetics.
Not a good idea to have a mother plant that has been selected under CMH or HPS and later grown on LEDs.
The best results I´ve ever obtained was mixing CMH with LEDs. Using a small 150W CMH as a support light in the middle of the grow and keeping the 600W LED at 75% during the entire grow. It used about 620w of total input between the two lights. About the same as using the LEDs at 100%
Will you be testing out the fancy new ground breaking Mars Hydro lights they just teased?
Also very interested on this. As for this video I missed testing on closer heights cause those numbers didnt look that impressive.
What's supposed to be fancy about them? I know other brand/s are using the new Evo mint white and emerald green LEDs.
Hey Shane, would be really interested in getting your views on UV-C.
I've seen it being used in indoor farms instead of chemicals to get rid of funghi and bacteria with great results.
Seems like a great new topic! Well, thank you so much if you'd find the time.
Quality light, doesnt seem to be that much improved over the previous version which is excellent. Are the light bars interchangable with the previous version ?
The 2nd version of lights they did fit onto the first and you could purchase them separately to do so. I.assume this will be the same
I have a 2.7 and replaced one of the bars with 2.9 and works perfectly.
Great video as usual. I have a question i hope you can help me with. Ive looked around but haven't found a conclusive answer. Once a leaf fades as a normal part of the flowering process, does that leaf continue to be able to turn light into energy?? I feel like once a leaf is no longer green it switches from being a converter of light to just being used for the nutrients held within and removing them wouldn't drastically affect growth as long as I maintain a healthy EC🤷♂️
I did get a couple of Shane's array lights but from my perspective I would never buy one again. It has to much white light for me and I had an issue with operating the light 3 months after purchase and no one ever responded to my emails. Well today I figured out one of the array 4s is stuck on high and I now have plants trying to re vege on me. I did send an email but doubtful I will get a response again.
Check your spam 🤡
Will u ever review a pro emit light? i heard a lot of them in forums but almost no test or reviews for it.
1000 in the center and just over 500 in the corners just doesn't seem that good to me.
This is tested in a 5x5 . Most lights this size he tests in a 4x4 . This is an excellent par map for a 5x5 which is nearly twice as big as 4x4 .
Bloody hell 4 years ago I remember watching it where did they go 😧
Great work mate 👍
one video on the pure led 680w pro 2.0 please
I get very poor results when I attempt to grow seedlings with 3500k leds but good in flower
those numbers even so far away from light. excellent lamp
Best thing about this light is that it will work with bars removed... so you can start your seedlings under just one bar with dimming of 25% ( 10% increments if ran through AC inf controller). Saves a fortune in energy, just adding the bars as your grow spreads out.
Can you test the phlizon fd4500 or 6500?
Have you looked into omega infinity? Their lights look exactly the same as lumatek and I believe they’re sourced from the same factory but the price is literally half of what the lumatek sells for. Would love to see your review on it.
Omega don't say which diodes they use, unlikely they are using the same branded top bins. Also they use more red to bump the efficiency up (reds are cheaper and way more efficient than white).
This model lumatek has ~half the reds and about 1/3 more total diodes. A few places had the infinity under £400 for a while, the lumatek's cost 50% more than that wholesale.
Nice lamp
Hello, will there be a test of the new Mars Hydro FC-E 1500 lamp on the channel?
LOL
You fellas stick with your Ali express lights, lumatek is unmatched quality, if you used lumatek you wouldn't be worried about the cost
At $1900 in my country with tax , I'm worried about your financial future ..
Agreed 💯. Also I can vouch for chilled grow craft x600 lights
I've been running several of them for 5 years non stop perpetual grow cycles and they have held up great
Not one issue 😉. Unless fat, stickey, Stinky 🦨 bud is a problem . 😊😊😊
Ive been running alibaba and china amazon lights + higher quailtiy brands over 10 years. Ive had them both work fine no dif in bud quality. Only parts that failed on me were inventronics driver and 1 no-name driver
my mate sold his lumatek after 1 crop, one of the first Zeus models, great for veg, not much cop at flower, good quality , no argument , but expensive and not necessarily the best, especially VFM
But I can buy a light with better LEDs and almost twice the wattage for half the price.
I wish you can test the Lumatek ats200w pro (new one) pls.
puaj shit
Whats the dollar to watt ratio 1/1
I want the best bar style light I can get for a 4x4 tent. Under a million dollars Any suggestions.
Kingbrite
ViparSpectra KS5000 😉🌳💨💨💨
Sanlight EVO 5
Migro Aray 4
Tarantula Tent Ultimate 4 by 4, the worlds best uniformity by far, compare it to anything!
Build your own...
What kind of light would you choose for yourself 1) Lumatek 600W Zeus Pro 3.1 or 2) Mars Hydro Smart FC 6500-EVO just be honest!!! I have a dilemma I can't choose for myself🙂🙂🙂
1) 949€. 2) 799€ 🤷♂️
lumatek if u want the best.. mars hydo most bang for the buck.
mars hydro, lumatek is shit
@@g0yit0 why you think that? can you justify your opinion, please!🙂🤔🤔🤔
I was gonna go for the mars hydro FC 4800 evo but now hesitating as well with the zeus 600w 3.1... what did you buy at the end?
@@siro4194 I haven't bought anything yet, I still have time to think. Some people say Mars Hydro is better than the new Zeus 600 3.1, and some people think Zeus is better 😂 I can't understand. I don't want to overpay for the brand either☝️🙂
When will they make a light that better emulates the sun. As in gets brighter gradually and starts to dim after peak until lights out. It wouldn’t be hard to do. Send me a Che k for the idea Shane. And one that slowly rotates while it’s on or even a side to side movement. No light can ever equal the sun.
SANlight already has a daylight cycle, they have a bluetooth dimmer with phone app which has this program
U have a controller dimmer from lumatek who does that when the led turns on/off
Seems like the higher end brands like Lumatek, and San Lights are relying a bit on their name and perceived quality. The specs here are hardly class leading but respectable until you consider you can get much cheaper grow lights with higher efficiency. Likely in two years or so there will be new LED diodes and improvements so I can't see the advantage of the extra costs.
That is at least for a home grower.
Will it fit in a 4x4 ? I could see it fit like a glove
I have the 2.9 in a 4x4 and it fits like a glove. 1 cm on each side clearance. Only thing that I personally have a small problem with is the heat produced in a 4x4 at 600w.
@@M8RTAL thank you! Didnt think the heat would be a problem ( even with passive cooling and an extra monkey fan?)
@@Bauzmanxrp I have two monkey fans installed and one 30cm oscillating box fan. 1 active intake 120mm pc fan (just testing currently) and 840m2/h exhaust running at 50% (with ramp up to 100% reaching 28C @ canopy) . I try to reduce noise since I live close to other people and I exhaust from a basement window that might be close to someones bedroom window for example. Another problem of mine is that the tent is currently packed too tight, so the cooler air from the bottom has a hard time circulating to the top. A more experienced grower than me will propably handle the 600w more easliy.
@@M8RTAL thank you for sharing your experience with the light! Helps me choose between my 3 options 👍
These are not available in the US?
They’re called Photontek same lights same company I think
To me personally, they all have no rights to ask for these prices, while there's Kingbrite, offering high end diodes for much less...
Come see me in 5 years of non stop everyday 12/12 hr cycle use . O yea u won't be able to because the king bright china piece of crap will of burned out years before then. You get what u pay for , especially in the led grow light realm!!!!!!!
The light is the last thing you wanna cheap out on to save some $$$. It's more efficient so over time you'd probably even save money... Bigger harvests too... Safer with extra certifications and testing... Better material quality... There's a reason kingbrite or other similar brands are cheaper
Omega infinity 3.0 600w is far cheaper than this and produces great results
@@SimonC1111 Yeah, because they are factory direct lol. I do think there is value in the certifications, but they are effectively the same thing; don't fool yourself.
@@seventeen9718 The crop we're growing using these lights is worth so much that there is no point in trying to cut costs. Like I said, you'd probably make your money back in 1 harvest, due to it being bigger and better. Also compared to cheaper brands, Lumatek and other premium brands have more diodes, leading to a higher efficiency light that lasts much longer.
He sed barely fit in 5 buy 5 .dont it fit in 1.2 1.2 ??

the same old stuff.
Same old comment that does nothing 🤡
😮🥰
Looks nice. But this is not for 5x5. 4x4 is max for this light.
Passt das überhaupt in ein 4x4?
negative
I run the old 2.7 in 4x4 and can only use 100% for the last 3 weeks without bleaching or light burn. Even the 2.7 would work fine on 5x5 mate without C02.
@@latimeria2 this is definetly not for 5x5.
@@Josef4U99 Have u run these lamps on 4x4 or 5x5?
Lumatek is overpriced, bushyard isnt
Less average PAR than the migro array 4x4 for almost twice the price
This was tested in a 5x5 . It’s nearly twice the space of a 4x4 .
@@timpage5021 no, it's not twice the size and my point still stands, for a 5x5 Migro offers a 750W instead of 600W and still has better performance for a cheaper price. The 4x4 being 500W was a closer comparison.
@@nomenclator4339 I didn’t say it’s twice the size . I said nearly twice the size . A 4x4 is 16 sq feet and a 5x5 is 25sq feet . So nearly twice the size. But yes Migro makes some great lights at a good price. They’re right smack in the middle good quality , ok components ok price.
But for only 650 watts the Lumetek does a fantastic job at covering a 5x5. Most 800 watt fixtures don’t even cover a 5x5 as well as this.
lazycommentforthealgo
Lumatek have always been way overpriced.
How many others over 5 year warranties?
I've never had one problem with any of my 6 lights
