Quality Build. Quality Components
The Mars Hydro FC8000 is an LED Grow Light that has been engineered with longevity in mind and it boasts an incredible life span of over 50000 hours. With the new, recently upgraded version of the FC5000, Mars Hydro prove that they are not cutting corners. Its array of 2868 diodes are carefully selected from the experts at Samsung and Osram to enable the grower to produce enormous, dense buds absolutely dripping with oils and botanical resin.
With a whopping 800w evenly distributed over its 8 LED light bars, the Mars Hydro FC8000 and its Full Spectrum output enables even beginner cultivators to produce a bumper harvest of 2.5g to 3.0g per watt.
Corner to Corner Lighting. Passively Cooled.
The Mars Hydro FC8000 is new generation LED Grow Light technology. No more burning hot bulbs in the centre of your room, no more sickly plants in shadowy tent corners. The Mars Hydro FC8000 uses its evenly spaced light bars to ensure corner to corner light cover age with absolutely no wasted light or electricity. Every single watt of power is utilised efficiently, edge to edge, corner to corner.
The Mars Hydro FC8000 LED Grow Light utilises passive cooling technology to effortlessly vent all excess heat up and away from your growing area. Not only does this enable optimum temperature and humidity, but it also takes the strain of your normal Grow Room cooling equipment such as fans and extraction. With your grow area being cooler, more stable and less dependant on cooling technology, the cultivator can expect notably less electricity costs and significantly lower noise pollution that is often caused by overworked fans and ventilation. Less cost. Less wear & tear. Less noise. Win / Win / Win.
Full Control. Full Spectrum
Now featuring a high intensity IR output, the Mars Hydro FC8000 provides a deep red array to increase bud density and improve flavour and aroma. From the IR pioneers at Osram, the plentiful 660nm diode output vastly increases photosynthesis to enable the grower to produce bigger, more resinous plants much faster than previously possible. This faster plant metabolism is of special benefit to cultivators of Autoflowering plants as plants require a significantly shorter veg time.
With a high quality dimmer hard wired into the LED driver, the Mars Hydro FC8000 is fully controllable to meet the needs of the grower with fingertip adjustments. The dimmer provides absolute control from 0% to 100% with no pre sets or click points. This makes the Mars Hydro FC8000 suitable for the entire grow cycle from tiny, delicate seedlings all the way up to juicy, light hungry fruits & flowers. But its not just about light output. This fully adjustable light output also means that the cultivator can have accurate control over their electricity costs too.
Even with its huge light output, the Mars Hydro FC8000 doesn't cost a fortune to run. Its hyper efficiency results in an average daily electricity cost of around £2.45 making the Mars Hydro FC8000 one of the most economical LED Grow Light solutions out there. Even with modern electricity prices, growers can expect to complete an 8 week grow cycle at a cost of around £140. With a potential yield of around 3.0g per watt, this equates to a massive 2400g of resin rich, premium quality produce every single flowing cycle. So it doesn't take a genius to work out that the Mars Hydro FC8000 LED Grow Light pays for itself very quickly indeed.
