I just got this 1000w LED light. For indoor seedlings, how far away should I hang this light. I'll only be doing 2 plants. Thank you for any help, Sean
How much electricity does it draw from the wall outlet? I would be very surprised if it actually draws 1000w. This information should be listed on the spec sheet of the light. If it doesn't draw 1000w from the wall, it's not a 1000w light. Let us know and we'll go from there.View attachment 1267744

You said it more polite, with more detail.How much electricity does it draw from the wall outlet? I would be very surprised if it actually draws 1000w. This information should be listed on the spec sheet of the light. If it doesn't draw 1000w from the wall, it's not a 1000w light. Let us know and we'll go from there.
If it only draws 150w, then it's only a 150w light. This to me is a deceptive sales practice. If it's not what they say it is, I would consider returning it so you can pursue something much better.
Lies. Send it back to Amazon. Or whoever.They probably call it 1000 watts because there are 100 10w bulbs?
Look in the specs and see what it actually draws from the wall. This is the only information you need to know about that light right now. The rest is designed to separate your money from your wallet.They probably call it 1000 watts because there are 100 10w bulbs?
pretty sure the specs will lie about the actual specs lol!Look in the specs and see what it actually draws from the wall. This is the only information you need to know about that light right now. The rest is designed to separate your money from your wallet.
I think you are reading it wrong...it doesn't say 1000 watts it says 1000w..........is that short for watts OR? is it just a 1000w light? lost in translation...are the attLook in the specs and see what it actually draws from the wall.

It wouldn't be the first time .... I have a "Kill O Watt" device that I can plug into an outlet and see actual watts being used. You can find them for around $20 +/- a little. A gadget like that would bring out the truth.pretty sure the specs will lie about the actual specs lol!
A ton of them on there are claiming 1000w output its a common ploy amongst the Amazon/Ebay cheap Chinese LED sellers. They all use questionable performance graphs and confusing data spreads to try to convince people that the light is more powerful than it actually is. In reality that light is probably more comparable to a 150w or a 250w HPS. There is absolutely no way in hell that light can put out lumens like a true 1000w HPS. Even though its a crap light it can still work for a tiny grow tent so long as you are only doing around 1 plant. I have one almost identical to yours I flowered a GDP in it about 4 years ago and it came out descent but I had to drop the light lower in late flower to get enough lumens to create proper trichs. I only use that light for veg now I have better lights for flowering. This is a pic of that past grow it was with the same cheap amazon blurple light...I think you are reading it wrong...it doesn't say 1000 watts it says 1000w..........is that short for watts OR? is it just a 1000w light? lost in translation...are the att
I just did an amzon search with 1000w grow light and all the lights you speak of pop up. I then searched for 1000 +watt grow light and again the ones you speak of pop up but as you scroll down you'll see lights advertised as 1000 watts are 1000w hps lights but none of the 1000w lights say watts on their header.A ton of them on there are claiming 1000w output its a common ploy amongst the Amazon/Ebay cheap Chinese LED sellers.
