Mars Hydro Led Grow Light Family

[keiksweat]

Hey M like our discussion and thinking of purchasing 2 144 reflectors as side lighting as well as maybe 2 mars 700's for over head problem i see is there both 5 watt diodes ,, Can a person pick n build these units ?? i mean i do not want 5 watt diodes but 3 watt diodes instead from reading leds in past couple years i am 75 percent ready to give them a shot but not interested in 5 watt diodes not at all so i its possible to to custom make reflectors or mars 2 units i would be interested then
, but the LED grow lights with the larger diodes have some very critical drawbacks. The first issue is that of heat dissipation and density. As the diode size increases, so does the amount of heat that needs to be dissipated by the diode chip. Larger wattage diodes need larger heat sinks to dissipate the heat that they give off. This results in heavier and bulkier lights. Another critical design drawback of the larger diodes is that they can not be packed as densely as the 3 watt designed lights. When using 5 watt or 10 watt diodes, you must space the diodes further apart, again because of the problem of heat dissipation. The result is a less densely packed grow light that is heavier and bulkier.

The biggest drawback of the 5+ watt diodes is their price. Not only do they cost more overall, but they are also more expensive on a $/watt and $/ growing area covered basis. A quick analysis shows that it is not worth paying a premium to have larger diodes in LED grow lights. The added penetration is superfluous and unnecessary for indoor growers and it comes at a burdensome cost – increased price and less densely packed network of diodes.

Bigger is not always better. When it comes to the question of 3 watt vs 5 watt diodes for LED grow lights, the 3 watt diode is the smarter choice for any indoor growing project.

I've got the 3 watt reflector series,450.dont under stand why they stuck 5watts in the new ones either

and how do you like it
there buddy i wish someone with comparisons of the 3 watt and 5 watt versions they say old stock but and normally one would think to unload old stock it would be a blow out price like min 25 percent off or even more with only consumer warranty like 30 days or something like that ,, but truth is for 20 dollar savings buying old stock compared to buying new mars 2 to me just does not make sense

 

[DrFever]

There is a lot of things that does not make sense and now starting to look other places and yes even diy cob possibly i just wanted to give the burple led a try its never ever going to replace my hid units thems are facts

 

[eastcoastjoe]

Didn't you have 2over heating panels?nothing happening still then...

Yeah I sent them back well over a week ago and still no answers. Been almost 6 weeks since I mentioned the problem so I'm about to just move on and forget it. I already bought a new light , at this point I'm just doing this to see what they actually do, I'm already screwed and I know it. I really hope when someone is debating on shopping with Mars they come across this discussion and think twice.

for sure bro ! im not giving up until its resolved but the whole thing has just been a waste of time and money. i still had to spend a few hundred more dollars to get a new setup while waiting for these to maybe be replaced and in the end im still back to using HID. my panels are still in america but i can almost bet they wont be replaced. they probably think there gonna dim my light to reduce the heat and think i wont notice LOL.

im kind of glad all this happened though so i could see how they handle things, me and a good friend were going to make a big purchase from them but aint no way its gonna happen now. he was going to do his entire room but good thing he didnt.

Hi Eastcoastjoe,

I just got the update news from CO, they have checked your light on Monday, and will let me know on Tuesday (American time)

Best wishes,

Hi Keiksweat,

Yes, you are right, no matter which state the company based in, they should offer good service to all the customers. That's what we are trying to do now, maybe we r not perfect to everyone now, but at least we are trying to be. :)

Best Wishes.

Hi Eastcoastjoe,

I got the news from the repair shop, it found out probably only one light has little probelm, this is the original words from the shop "I'll update you as soon as *** light is fixed but I think it should be easier", because of the time difference, I can't contact him for more details, but I have left him messages. Because we need to know if it's really something wrong with the quality, and if both lights have the same problem? Cuz it's really rare to see both of the lights have the same problem. Our factory produces thousands of lights everyday, can't be exactly the 2 light you purchased have problem.

But no matter what, If repair guy says" yeah, both of the lights have probelm", we will ship to you 2 new lights. But if the repair guy says "Only one has little probelm", We will ship a new light for you, and return your another fine light back.

Best Wishes :)

So the lights have a problem or he still doesn't know ? You said it may have a small problem, what's wrong with it ? The words you quoted from the shop really don't make sense ?

Because everytime when shop starts to work, it's late time in China, when we start to work, it's late time in America. So, we can't communicate on time. But I have left him messages, I will get his reply when he starts to work :)
