When you say not enough , what would the down side be to running this ?
For starts....you want to have at least a good 480 watts from the wall for a 4x4 area. Those light together probably pull about half of that. So since it wouldnt be enough light, you can have very airy and stretched out plants.
I was planning on running both veg and bloom
the blurple light pulls 223 out the wall and the ts1000 claims 155?
He says he already has both lights.
this is what’s odd to me . Red eye says 480 true watts minimum for a 4x4 tent. I research his claims and he’s accurate according to various websites. Okay that being said , Mars hydro claims that a ts1000 can cover a 3x3 . And a ts2000 can cover a 4x4 but the specs on the ts2 are literally almost exactly double the specs of the ts1 . How is it that it only covers 1 additional footage of area ? And the internet is saying a minimum of 480-500 true watts but even a ts2 only puts 300 watts ? Which by internet standards is poor standards . But proper to hydro ? Either someone is wrong or I’m missing something . Please forgive my light newbness in advance
Yes, 480 true watts of QUALITY LED for a 4x4. I don't consider Mars Hydro to be quality LED, so maybe like 500watts of their quantum-type boards. Blurple boards you need more like 700watts for a 4x4.
Update , I now will have 4 ts1000s in my 4x4 . Thanks for help guys
