Professional Samsung LED Grow Light
The Mars Hydro FC 8000 800 watt LED grow light boasts cutting-edge Samsung LM301H EVO diodes that drive its high-performance capabilities. The advanced chips help the FC8000 deliver a remarkable photosynthetic photon efficacy (PPE) of 2.9 μmol/j and a PPF of 2309 μmol/s high photon flux, providing a substantial and enduring lighting energy source for indoor plants. Together with a long-lasting color rendering capability, Samsung LM301H EVO chips make sure the light spectrum emitted is consistent and stable throughout the lifespan of the product. Ideal for both personal growers and racking cultivation operators.

Exclusive Recipe of Full Spectrum Light
This specialized spectrum blend incorporates blue and red light, and adequate green light, with the blue stimulating veg growth and facilitating the accumulation of essential phytochemicals, and the abundant red light enhances the maturation process and enhances the overall quality of buds and flowers produced by the plants. Adequate green light is added as well to support necessary plant growth and increase light penetration.
Fast Heat Dissipation Avoid Hot Spot
The wave-shaped heat sink allows for quick heat dissipation, preventing any disruptions to the light's operation. The multi-bar style design incorporates reserved space between the light bars for cooling, effectively mitigating any potential hot spot issues. This feature ensures that the grow light operates optimally and reliably, delivering consistent and uniform lighting to the plants, ensuring that the temperature remains stable and does not interfere with the carefully controlled environment.
