Simulight 540w

THE KONASSURE

Well-Known Member
them modular ones are normally junk

go with cob`s or if you want to get the plants close then it`s 1w chips or smd`s, if you going 3w or bigger per chip you may as well save the hassle and get cob`s there easier to repair and upgrade and replace

but a free test run is not so bad

I`m guessing if that panel actually uses 540w then it`ll either be on par with a 400 hps or 600hps remember a 400 hps on super uses over 500w and a 600 on super is normally using over 700w

Has anyone ever heard of these lights of used them if so how were your results? The company my buddy works for is a distributor for them, and is gonna let me test them out for a cycle, just wondering if anyone has ever used one before?

I used the same lights, but they were "rebranded" under a different name called Intelligent Gro. The lights themselves did very well in my garden, with the except that the reliability of the panel was very low and subpar. I had 5 of these(the 2 module version), and 3 failed. I also know many other growers that used the IGro's also had lights that failed(just about every one I was aware of).

The general issue is that randomly a whole center COB channel would go out, which you would see either none of the lights on the channel go on, or you would see all the LED's on the channel flash about 1x every 2 seconds. I replaced a driver in 1 of mine and the problem was fixed, and the other 2 panels I had that failed, I just left for parts since I had received panels from another brand to try.

The lights themselves are made by Ctlite in China, and I'm not sure if they have gone through any revisions or design changes since I've used them, but be cautious. You may want to have a couple extra drivers on hand or a back up light just in case. The rate of failiar was very high and pretty much every grower that I know that used them had issues. Hopefully the company has revamped the lights and fixed whatever the issues were, as the spectrum and intensity of the lights actually wasn't bad, and my plants grew very well under them.

Nice man, yeah I wouldn't be purchasing the lights it would just a side by side grow of the 540w panel vs a 100w hps. Just helping a buddy out and if they're legit he will help me out too if I wanted to purchase any. I'm already running Vero 29s and Cree cxb 3070s and love them over hps, I just wanted to test these out for fun and for my buddy.
