DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MARS TS AND MARS REFLECTOR LED GROW LIGHT

[Marshydro]

From 2019, Mars Hydro releases the Mars TS series, which is quantum board design, white sunlike spectrum, and it becomes very hot. But many of the other growers are still prefer our Mars Reflector series which is a traditional purple full-spectrum and with special reflector cup design.
Which one is better? What are their differences? Today we are going to show you the details from several points.

 

[Marshydro]

First - Light Design

- Mars TS: using no fan design, releasing heat by its own aluminum body, very quiet to use.

- Mars Reflector: Fan design, green light case, with some noise, but will be very cool to use.

Second - Reflector Design

- Mars TS: only uses a reflector cycle design, to ensure the coverage and the light output.

- Mars Reflector: uses reflector cup on each led chip, ensures 100% light output and coverage, plus helps mix the spectrum very well.

Third - Spectrum

- Mars TS: sunlike spectrum, with more green and yellow to look more natural, easier to check plants.

- Mars Reflector: purple full spectrum, with very little unuseful green and yellow. But need to use led grow light glasses to get clear looks of the plants

Fourth - Growing Stage Controlling Design

- Mars TS: the light itself is full spectrum for all growing stage, you can adjust the hanging height accordingly to suit different growing stages. Or you can use a screwdriver to adjust the wattage and dim the light to suit the different growing stages.

- Mars Reflector: there are veg and bloom switches on the light, during veg you can turn veg or both switches on, during flowering, turn both switches on.

Finally - Daisy Chain Function

- Mars TS: daisy chain function not available.

- Mars Reflector: daisy chain function available, but over 1000w wattage together is not recommended.

So with the differences above, which led grow type you prefer? If you have more commend on the

difference between those two lights, please feel free to comment.

Thanks for sunlike version of your LED lights. To replace 800 watt HPS. I'm a CMH user. I guess your next step will be to replace the 1000 watt HPS or the 630 CMH and that's what I'm really looking for.
With low maintenance and operating cost. On a commercial scale and a low price would be very nice.

Do you see Mars Hydro going in that direction anytime soon?

I like your sunlike Spectrum you getting very close now. I believe the CMH has still got it over LEDs

Fourth - Growing Stage Controlling Design

When you can use a screwdriver for adjusting light intensity up and down. What is it exactly doing when you're dimming it? To the output light?
How do I know how much power or light your giving or using to give to the plants?

Will you be adding any cooling fans to the ts3000 to cooler down? Or a add on kit?
Thanks
