OK, so I was a little apprehensive about buying this light. I read the reviews and some stated the light was getting very hot. Well, I had no intention of ever putting it in a very tightly enclosed area like a tent so I decided to give it a try.
I’ve had the lights for about three weeks now. I can tell you that after they’ve been on for about 12 hours, I can put my hands on them and leave them there for a little bit of time 5 to 10 seconds, yes the fixtures are warm. However, they are nowhere near as warm as a 600 W high-pressure sodium light. As with anything that uses power it’s going to make some heat and therefore require some ventilation. With a fan in the area and adequate air movement I find these lights operate as expected with regards to heat dissipation and light production.
I and my plants both like the sunrise and sunset function of the lamp. The timer is a 24 hour timer that can be used to turn the light on and off. It is a 24 hour timer. Not a weekly timer. I don’t believe I have ever seen my garden grow this well I ordered a second light today and I will be using it to expand my garden
Don’t believe everything you read. I am very pleased with the operation of this light and glad I purchased it. I spoke with someone today that bought the SPC 6500 and he was also equally pleased so for a light that doesn’t break the bank I would say this is a good choice it was for me anyway.

I liked it so much I bought another one a couple of months ago. After running for 18 hours I have a fan on in my room, circulating air I can touch the tops of the heat sinks. They are warm, but certainly not hot. As far as yield goes I’d have to write them as awesome. There is a little bit of a learning curve because of the flexibility of the light. If you do your research and apply what you learn that is available online with regards to Spectrum And what the plant needs at what time these lights will definitely make a huge impact. I use two of these to cover a 4 x 8‘ area and there is a stupid amount of light. Light is an important part of the growing process. It can definitely make her break your harvest. But don’t forget light is only part of the equation. Environment, nutrition all play a factor.
Happy harvesting.
