The offset design you have reduces sink flex. But if the drivers are not level horizontally or vertically they tend to accumulate heat in the ends. Was my point. And a cooler driver will live longer.
Yea I did hang it with a level so hopefully there is no warping. The drivers are also mounted to a separate small frame made out of some angle that is attached to the board overall it seems very sturdy compared to other models I’ve seen. 31F96C9A-CE9C-486F-89CC-91B9B0E4D6BE.jpeg23FAE09F-91B7-4B33-A45D-758EAB3FFEC2.jpeg

Things are moving along at a great pace. I gotta say with a small fan blowing over this light it stays cool. You can put your hand on it no problem it is only warm to the touch. the plants are happy so far the xs4000 is getting the job done with ease!

Plants are loving the light and growing very well. From here I’m going to continue posting as flowering progresses but idk what else to say unless something comes up. The xs4000 from vipar spectra @ViparSpectra Grower, will no doubt grow you some super dank buds! The light obviously has a real good spectrum going. Buds are dense and tight the way they should be, and frosty as hell. This light is definitely a good plug and play options no matter your experience levels

I just ordered the last one off Amazon Australia. I'm hoping that it'll put off a lot less heat in summer as compared to my 1000 hps. I can't ever get a good grow during summer here. Not when we get temps of 40+ in the shade. Everything stretches and won't fill out. I've tried everything from SOG to 4-6 hrs of light over the years. Nothing works. I'm hoping that using PAR rather than hps spectrum will give a better result. Can you tell me what sort of heat the LEDs raise the ambient temperature. It's winter here and usually I get my best results in the fall (autumn) early and then on the early spring. Everything grows as the breeders advertise. If the xs4000 doesn't raise the temperature enough during the nights when it sometimes gets down to 3 or 4 degrees C. I may need to run a 250, 400 or 600hps just to warm the tent a little. Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks man

I get about a 10 degree difference in ambient temps when lights are on less if I increase fan speed
