Apollo Horticulture Full Spectrum 900 Watt LED Grow Light for Indoor Plant Growing

I've purchased several Apollo items in the past and have yet to be disappointed. When I saw the extraordinary price through Amazon on this item, I took a chance and purchased two. Sometime ago I had purchased a 600 watt KIND LED light due to all the hype about its' fantastic performance. I bought the KIND light through a private local dealer as they were having a sale, but I still ended up shucking out $700 for one of the units which normally sells for over a thousand. Yes, it's nice, but it's also heavy and now that I've been using the two Apollo 600 watt LEDs which equals twice the amount of wattage for less than half the price of one KIND 600 watt LED, I now feel foolish having spent so much more on the KIND based on all the online hype. The Apollos are every bit as good on growth levels with my plants and are also lighter in weight and easier to mount inside a grow tent. The fans are so quiet they are unnoticeable. What I truly appreciate about them is the ability to move them about by myself. The KIND light is very heavy and I cannot move it alone without the risk of dropping it. So to be able to shuffle the Apollos about with little effort and the convenience of their very easy hanging carabiners that snap easily over the grow tent support poles, I simply love having a way to grow my plants independently without any help. For those wanting to raise these lights even when you've reached the maximum allowance using a carabiner on each end, I simply combined all four corner wires/loops together in the middle and used one carabiner to hang centrally. This pulled up the unit another 2 inches to the roof of the grow tent and though it can twist, it moves very little even with fans on. These are incredibly user-friendly lights, easy for one-person to hang, and put out excellent lighting that enhances and even expedites the growth rate on my veggie plants. I would absolutely buy more in the future if I needed some and will recommend this great price deal to others.

I purchase this product on March 25, 2016 and half of my panels just went out today 4/24/2017. WoW! I thought this product was supposed to last a lot longer. I uploaded a picture of the panels and you can clearly see the leds are out. Not sure what amazon can do about it. This really sucks! Amazon.. if you are reading these reviews, a response/feedback would be really nice.

Half of my panel went out, also a few diodes exploded... causing alot of issues.I am very upset about this, i have purchased nothing but Apollo horticulture equipment.You say i am past my return date but the life expectancy was no where near the advertised life expectancy.Please do something about this or i will be forced to no longer purchase or recommend Apollo horticulture equipment.My * rating will change if you respond to me with some sort of feed back.Thanks.

Arrived early, extremely bright. Bought a second after the first one after reading some stuff on par values but after looking at my girls it isn't needed and I won't use it until flower stage and only to give things a boost. Set it at 18inches and the plant won't stretch at all in fact mine are unusually bushy for this type. For those on the fence on led but wanna give it a go this is a great performer.One negative is that my grow cab temp went up 4 degrees from ambient but my light bill went down 40 bucks and they are growing better than my mh/hps 400 combined with 4 4ft t5 high outputs. And its way cooler. I'll review again after flowers but so far I'd say don't waste money on the high fallutin brands that the grow snobs are name dropping on internet forums Apollo gives you your money's worth and then some.Week ten ill give you some adjectives to help you. One plant.LST 29 colas, ROCK HARD, STINKY, PURPLES, PINKS.SQUAT TIGHT NODES.Yeah it will grow it will perform. No doubt great buy. Why fight the heat grow cheaper.

I purchased the GL45LED Full Spectrum 135W model. Upon arrival I noted that it was packaged well and a bit bigger than I thought it would be. So I plugged it in to test. As a seasoned grower moving from HPS (High pressure sodium) lamps, my first thought was "WOW, THIS LAMP IS BRIGHT!" Seriously bright. Enough to cause serious injury to the eye of an idiot. Which is a lot to say for a lamp that is mostly red light, considering the fact that lumens/watt are lower as you move away from daylight white spectrum. Regardless, I was pleased. However, In my opinion these lamps lack 5500k daylight white light in proper quantity. It does have some white light so I will be testing in regards to how much white light needs supplementing. Daylight spectrum light plays a major key in photosynthesis and absorption of light energy from your highly efficient PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) lamp. Without it I have doubts on the results being as successful as your HPS systems. This is quite easily fixed with 2 6w led E26 bulbs daylight white added to the room. You can get them from your local Home Depot for around $6.00 ea.

Great grow light. Don't be fooled by previous reviews. The light in the middle is supposed to appear out. It's inferred. The light puts out 2000 plus units on my light sensor which is as high as it goes from 12"-1". Installed very easily. It covers 3ft in diameter no problem. The fan can be heard but is in no way loud.
