Super bright light that I'm sure my plants will love. I cant believe this light output that it can achieve while only using 9 watts of power , a real energy saver over the older bulbs, the upgrade pays for itself in energy savings. Plus no replacing bulbs every year since its rated to last 50,000 hours- even if you used that 8 hours a day its good for over 17 years!
Both its mounting options and bulb colors settings are very versatile. The fixture that can be used as a regular led light for a more natural room or task lighting, great for multi tasking and eliminates the need for a second light in the growing area.
It can be plugged in or direct wired if you wanted to install at a cabinet or into a shelving unit, the package comes with all the hardware to install either way. Plus you can link up to 30 units together, all through the one plug , kit comes with connectors.
For mounting, it can be screwed in directly, or a magnetic plate can be screwed into your cabinet - then the fixture will magnetically attach to the plate- it makes for easy removal of the fixture if you only use it temporarily like say during the winter months for your plants, the magnetic mounting plate is thin and easy to hide- and not noticeable under a cabinet.
It can also be suspension mounted with clips and hooks included, I chose that method because its easy to remove the fixture , and to move it close or further from plants by adding or removing S hook. The S hooks not included but cost me about a buck. The bulb also rotates to adjust where to concentrate the beam.
I unboxed , added plug and hung in all of 3 minutes. well worth the selling price.
Pros: Easy to Install, Lots of Features, removeable, adjustable beam position
