Advantages of LED Grow Lights
Another advantage of LED over HPS is their expected life time. HPS light bulbs typically last 6 months before they need to be replaced. LED bulbs on the other hand are expected to last up to 5 years before needing to be replaced. Besides the reduced maintenance costs for large grow operations, it also means that your bulbs will keep producing a constant level of light and not diminish with time.
For those doubting LED’s ability to deliver quality yields there has been numerous tests done showing that they can indeed deliver massive yields. In our research we have found that they can deliver the same yield as HPS will using two thirds less electricity.
Another advantage of LED grow lights over HPS is their heat usage. HPS require specialized cooling systems. LED on the other hand do not and produce only one sixth the heat of HPS.
The reason LED grow lights can work so well is they target the exact wavelengths of light needed for plant growth.
If you are thinking of trying out LED grow lights now is the perfect time. Many companies offer a free return policy on their lights so you can try them out worry free.
