FLUENCE SPYDR VS GAVITA PRO LED GROW LIGHT
FLUENCE SPYDR 2P LED GROW LIGHT SYSTEM
The Fluence SPYDR 2p is an improved, more powerful version of the SPYDR Plus. Just like the 2i, the SPYDR 2p is developed for High PPFD Cultivation, which makes the grow light in principle suited for growrooms in which extra CO2 is added to the air. A boosted quantity of CO2 of 800 to 1,400 PPM (normally this is 400 PPM, 0.04%), in other words, a percentage of 0.08 to 0.14%, will enable a plant to safely transform that huge light intensity into carbohydrates and energy. The beneficial effect for the grower is that, due to this, the life cycle of his plants is significantly accelerated and, additionally the yield is increased up to 20%. I.e.: High PPFD Cultivation will generate more crop in less time.
The SPYDR 2p resembles the 2i in many aspects, but the most important difference is the light intensity. The 2p is less powerful which makes this LED nursery lamp in principle also suited for growers that work without CO2. It is important however, to keep a minimum of 40 centimetres between lamp and plant. At a shorter distance, the light intensity will damage the plants.
The Fluence SPYDR 2p is fitted with a PhysioSpec Indoor spectrum, developed by Fluence themselves. This is a tailor-made spectrum for the indoor grower and intended for the entire life cycle of your plants. So, also seedlings, shoots and clones will feel very comfortable in the light of this lamp. The PhysioSpec Indoor spectrum scores 85 on the CRI-scale, meaning that the radiated light is excellently suitable for the work and research conditions in which natural, lively colours and proper contrast are essential. The Fluence SPYDR 2i does not include a built-in dimmer. This can be obtained separately only. One dimmer can be connected up to 50 SPYDR 2s.
The Fluence SPYDR 2p is a professional LED grow light, highly efficient in energy consumption. Thanks to the large light surface, the light is distributed quite evenly across the growth surface and will have no trouble penetrating the foliage. The materials used by Fluence, the straightforward design and the lack of fans make the Fluence SPYDR 2i a soundless, solid grow light that will last for many years, hassle-free. The Fluence SPYDR 2p can be connected to the mains electricity as stand-alone or in daisy-chain. This LED grow light is suitable for use in racking (vertical farming), cultivation tables and in grow tents. A hanging fixture is included.
High PPDF-growing with CO2 requires knowledge of photosynthesis and the effect of CO2 on your plants. It is important to realise that in case of too little CO2 in the air, the bright light cannot be transformed into energy and carbohydrates, as a result of which your plants may get damaged. On the other hand, the additional CO2 in the growing area will only be transformed in case there is sufficient light intensity. Using the powerful Fluence SPYDR 2p that is one thing you needn’t worry about.
Gavita Pro 1700e LED Grow Light
The Gavita Pro 1700e LED fixture operates at 645 watts with an output of 1700 µmol s-1 PAR and an impressive efficacy of 2.6 µmol s-1 per watt. The Pro 1700e delivers broad, intense light coverage with its 8 passively cooled LED bars allowing you to use it in low rooms, vertical racks, over benches, or even in tents. This powerful, full-spectrum light source is intended for full-term plant growth from the vegetative stage to the higher-light-requiring bloom and finishing stages. Built with premium Philips drivers, Samsung white LEDs and Osram deep-red LEDs, this fixture uses only the highest-quality components. The fixture is dimmable to 50% without any loss of efficiency using the Gavita E-Series LED Adapter and Gavita Master Controllers. The Gavita E-Series LED Adapter — 120–277 V (#906151, sold separately) is required for each fixture when using the controller; non-controlled fixtures simply operate at 100%. The Gavita Pro 1700e LED fixture and Gavita E-Series LED Adapter are FCC compliant, UL1598, and IP66 rated for use in wet environments with a maximum ambient operating temperature of 40°C. Sun Grip® light hangers included.
