SANLight Martin interview Live Stoners 18th August 2017

[SANlight Martin]

Hi @SANlight Martin
I've just been having a look at your data sheets.
There seem to be distinct spectrums you use, one is a full spectrum spectrum and the other is low in blue and high in the red end of the spectrum.
Could you talk us through the two spectrums and how they target different grow situations.
The light names give no indication that they have different spectrums, only by checking the data sheets do we find this out.
thanks you for being here with us

For indoor usage under high PPF values we strongly recommend the S1 (Broadband) spectrum. Our studys showed that this spectrum is working much better as a discrete spectrum, if you have PPFD's above 100micromols/m^2/s.
For usage in greenhouses, especially for leavy plants (salad, etc.) the discrete red/blue spectrum works better in some cases.

As i like the Forum, i think this will be possible

With COB's you have a lack of Efficiency if you don't drive it on a very low current. the problem is the Phosphor conversation in combination with higher voltage drop of the blue exciter leds. But for sure COBs works....But for us as Company it's not a good choice to use COB's because of problems which occour if Sulfur is in the air. Sulfur Can destroy the silver coating which is underneath the led Chips...
If you compare our datasheets to other you will see that we have a very good efficieny.
We have these high PPF Values because we are doing a very narrow binning. Our lamps are design and build in Austria, so the Quality is very high....Also the Chips are highest qualtiy, and we are running them at arround 65° C chip temperature...

cobs give better light/w even at high amp util compared to every thing else before ... why are u not working of that ? Sulfur ... that does not register as a problem .. unless u are poisoning a greenhouse

Sorry if this has been asked already.. But how long has SANlight been in business? Which model is the most popular model, sales wise?

We are in Business 5 years ago. The SANlight Project started 7 years ago, with doing Tests,....

The measurments in our integrating sphere showed us other results...

Thanks for the answer @SANlight Martin
