Yeah she’s looking good, I’ve had this cut for 2 years. Here she was this time last year-

She’s chugging right along.

I don’t think she’ll stretch too much more.

I used to grow strictly under Mars....The TS-1000, TSL-2000, SP-250 and TS-3000. Each served their own purpose, Each light growing some really nice plants too. However.....................................................................I am in the process of selling pretty much all of them besides the TS-3000. Nothing against them at all. Actually tried to get them to allow me to run a grow now with their new series of lights coming out and not the SP-3000 either. They said no it was too early so I said sorry and spent well over 1000 USD on new lights. Their loss I guess because if you go through pretty much EVERY grower's forum on the internet, I was one of the few who would rock their shit, and piss a bunch of people off by growing nice plants.

Have you seen the SP-3000? Samsung diodes, you can daisy chain them and more....pretty nice light too. The SP series is the best of the 2 honestly. Price tag hurts though.

The construction of the sp250 is fucking legit . Water proofed diodes ...

Yup that price is steep for sure! I wish the SP250 had the dimmer though haha not gonna lie!

One can always be wired on...but it would void a warranty if they found out lol.

It’s simple enough to twist the knobs under the driver but you’d need to mount it somewhere if you wanted to fiddle with it more a couple times.

The tough part is....the first 250's had short wires so mounting outside was VERY hard...now they have longer wires.

Ahhh well I missed out on the dimmer knobs, but I guess I got lucky with the longer power cords Could be worse

They did the same with the TSL series too. The one that has the blue on it is the " newer version ". Nothing different besides that little blue color and a longer set of wires.

Guess I got lucky with the long wires it's nice to have the option to remove the driver

Yep. It took a while for them to make the switch. I had the one TSL the day they came out. Still no problems with it. Just moved on from them.

If you’ve got the lights you should just keep one for veg It’s not going to make a huge difference and I mean you’ve already got it

 

[sfrigon1]

I did grab a 240 Watt set up with the 301 s and to be honest I may like the sp250 better so far

I was hoping to upgrade from the SMD to Samsung.

I think the lm301 b or h is the best right now

That's what I have in the flowering room. Loving what I am seeing from them so far so that's why I wanted to upgrade the diodes in one of my current spaces. And with that small temp drop, it will help me using a little less of my A.C.
