Both models use the same components for the most part, except the new model is focused more on total durability and close to 100% as we can get with cooling + heat sinks + how much we drive the LEDs whilst maintaining enough power at the same time.... The AF-600 is more focused on raw power, but is built well, and is still backed with a lifetime guarantee. It draws 590w and has slightly over 1800 Umol'/s 12" below the center of the light. At 28" above the plant tops it provides 800 Umol'/s at the center and covers at least 48"x48". (600-800 is ideal) PAR-wise, because both lights- new model and AF600 use identical spectrum and ratios, they can be compared to each other in PAR and coverage quite easily. It will take 3 of the new lights totaling 435w to illuminate the same amount of square footage while providing the same amount of PAR as the AF600 consuming 590w. You're looking at a difference of 155w for the same amount of coverage and relative intensity, except the 3 new lights will provide 3 points of core coverage rather the 1 the big light will.
Hello,
Actually the new lamps will be a few watts more, totaling about 165w. This is because we're using larger 5w LEDs rather the 3w.
We can offer a pretty good discount, about $100 off per lamp, if you pre-order 1-2 weeks before the scheduled release, which should be the 1st week of March.
