Son of Hobbes tests Mars II 1600W 5W LED + Mars Grow Tent + Mephisto Genetics + Terrestrial Bean Com

This'll be fun! That's a lot of light

EoF - It's been my experience that with the Reflector Series, it's just better to leave it on veg/bloom both on.
Just give em everything it's got

I agree! I'm running mine that way too.

Sub'd S.o.H. I think Youl never go back to HPS after using this light.

Best of Luck I think you will be quite pleased. Here to help where I can.

Heck, I can't even give away my old 600 watt MH light.............lol

Sweet, this sounds like it will be a very fun journal to watch unfold.
Hope you have a nice and smooth transition over to LED's. I dont know anything about switching from HPS/MH to LED. So, I cant really be of help in that department. Though, Im sure you will climb what ever learning curve you may encounter like a Mountain Goat. :Gary:

daaamn man, i was just looking at that light and was curious if the standard spectrum is not a big deal with autos?or is the switchable spectrum better..LOL!! cant wait to see ya use that.frigin nice light.:Sharing One: Im looking at the 192X3 reflector.seems rather reasonable and swappable spectrum too.so we'll see. or in that size do they offer standard as well as swapable too?:Sharing One:

It's INCREDIBLY heavy. I'll post a bit on my blunders trying to get it mounted up when I put the pictures up of it. Went with chain!

That 192x3W also has my attention; that was actually the one I was originally looking at. Sniper is going to be doing a grow with one of them soon I believe so you'll get another staff grow and review of them (if that makes any difference to you or not ha!) I just replaced my old 4 x 4 tent with this new Mars 4' 9" x 4' 9", but for about $10 I can get new corner connector pieces for the 4 x 4 tent, so... you know... empty tent. Needs a light. Trying to get away from the HPS thing. Just makes sense haha! Anyways if I like how this 1600W does, that will probably seal the deal for me on making the switch from HPS to LED.

Have you checked out the Mars Sun Series? Curious to see those babies in action!

You will certainly notice the weight difference after HPS fittings! Chain is an essential!!

"kudos"

Sweet,sounds like a winner.time to learn a new light it seems.ill hope to have my 192X3 soon'ish once Tina contacts me back later on.I look forward to getting my light and having a tandem SOG of 3 gallon smart pots.thats my goal anyways.cant quite achieve it yet.but close!! nah aint looked at them..Tina just recommended the 192X3 I told her the size of tent I had n thats what I can afford after spending in the right areas as best i can.Sun Series eh? ill prolly just grow with the 192X3.looks nice from what Ive seen.Thanks for doing this man,really look forward to seeing if I wanna shell out for a full on LED to cover it solely.Im sure its more than worth it,especially once ya cut yer teeth on the first go round with em.Pretty exciting stuff man!!:Hookah: :Sharing One:

I recently got the 192x3 based mostly on Weedman30s reccommendation. So far I'm liking the results I'm seeing.

The 192x3w is a great system I had 9 autos in 2 gal equilvent air pots and pulled over a Pound with that Reflector. I think I'm the only one here who uses the veg spectrum first 3 weeks. Either way it got the Job done. I put the 192x3 away and broke out the MARsII 900w for a try now.
