It'll be interesting to see it tested to see what happens to the plants morphology when they are blasted with equal amounts of photons from this red blue led vs high cri white vs hps assuming this is dimmable
The bin on those high bays must be horrible 12 of the for 240w so they are driven at 20w's a piece and only producing 100 lm/w either the bin is horrible or the heatsink isnt near good enough to keep Tj down
Diy is the best bang for the buck.... The only banging mars 2 will do is your head against the wall when you get all larf and are like damn I wasted 1000$ when I should've listened to that botanist dude
Also wait till you have a driver failure because they aren't potted and have to TRY to get a warranty claim from china. All I can say is good luck and I hope you see the light as well sooner rather than later for you and your grows sake
I used to use one before I saw the bright white 80cri 3500k light and haven't looked back. Mars 2 is made using garbage bin epistar leds that are 15-25% efficient the light I'm talking about is 56%
Don't waste your money on the mars 2 it will yield no more than a cfl would look at gogreens led Plc a51 w90 or ball out and diy your own 3 hlg185c1400 12 cxb3590 3500k cd and for 600w draw I'd put that up against a thouie in a 4x4
Main thing to do is scope the trichomes with at least 30x magnification. Sometimes the pistils will change but the trics are still clear you want them to be milky and like 20-30% amber
