The dimming programs run automatically after configuration, with three default grow plans already prepared for your reference. Additionally, the Sunrise & Sunset Simulation option allows the light to mimic the natural photoperiod of plants, dividing the scheduled time into 12-time segments where light levels rise and fall.
The FC-E4800 also offers independent control of multiple lights, allowing you to switch and dim up to 100 FC-E4800 plant lights without additional cables. The Mars Hydro App can divide the LED grow lights into different lighting groups for independent management, making it convenient to monitor and program various ongoing cultivations without interfering with each other’s plans.

Fast Cooling System
Compared to its outdated HPS cousins, the Mars Hydro FC-E4800 puts out a very small amount of heat. And, the heat it does produce is evenly spaced over the full fixture and its clever aluminium heat sinks. This means that burning hot bulbs in the centre of a room, burned buds and crispy leaves are a thing of the past. As soon as you take the Mars Hydro FC-E4800 out of the box, old style HPS lights seem antiquated and just stupid. The future is here - and now professional growing is affordable for all.

This adds another layer to the stealth capabilities of this LED Grow Light and also means less electricity costs too. Win / Win.
