VIVOSUN2-Pack VS1000E LED Grow Light with Full Spectrum Diodes, Sunlike Plant Light for Indoor Plants Seedling Veg and Bloom in 2x4/3x3 Grow Tents Greenhouses

Update after ~6 months of use:This light is great, my only complaint is the light could be more dispersed, it's concentration is center biased a lot.I have this in a 2' x 4' grow tent with 2 Carolina Reaper pepper plants in DWC hydroponic buckets, originally I had it paired with a blue/purple type from a well regarded brand. After approx 4 months of growth, both plants would noticeably grow towards this light over the other type even when I would swap what light was over what plant. I have since replaced the other style light with a second copy of this light and both plants are happier, both plants have 50+ flowers and around a dozen fruits growing.I also modified both lights by de-mounting the power supply from the light and de-soldering the very short wire that connects the power supply to the LED board and adding in a 4' extention so I could get the power supplies out of the tent so they wouldn't get as hot or heat up the tent so much, and so I could get the LED board as close to the roof of the tent as possible because the plants are growing so profusely. I also got some aluminum heatsinks and thermal epoxy off Amazon and glued the heatsinks to the power supplies to help them run cooler, I'm really not joking when I say they get hot enough to be too painfully hot to touch for any more than a second or two.ORIGINAL REVIEW:Super bright, nice and lightweight. The driver gets too hot to touch after running for a little bit, so make sure all cables are well clear and it's not too close to the top of a grow tent.Either get this light near an air intake or exhaust port in a tent or set up a small fan to cool the driver off, otherwise I fully expect it to cook itself in a year of use.

Awesome light output for price.

I like this light, but the manual implies it’s dimmable when it does not seem to be. I don't know if there are just multiple versions of this light and this one just isn’t dimmable because the manual has 2 different looking backs on the lights, if someone knows how to dim the one I have and Im just dumb please let me know lol

Works great easy to hang great price for people on a budget

Fairly lightweight full-spectrum light, very bright! Comes with several adjustable corded hangers to position it over your plants. It does put off a bit on heat, so I've added some stick-on heat sinks to help keep the unit a bit cooler; hopefully it should help with the lifespan of the light. It's bright enough that you don't want to look at it directly, and our plants seem to be very happy with the amount and spectrum of the light. I just saw where they have one with a fan built-in; I think I would go that route should I need a second one :)

Mixed bag with this one. The good is that it is clearly well made and I like the pulley system. It gives off very bright light with a large area that will definitely be sufficient for my needs. Unlike a lot of reviewers who are growing "medicinal" plants in their basement in a tent...you do you, I'm using mine for veggie and flower seed starting on top of a dresser.The bad: No on-off switch. This means that every time I want to turn it off, I need to unplug the unit, which is awkward. Between that and the fact that there's no timing feature, I'm going to need to pay for an external timer to plug it into, or maybe set it up on my smart plug if I can find it in the depths of my closet. The product says it comes with an extra set of hangers...it doesn't...and that's false advertising. The documentation in the product box lists additional items as included, such as some sort of protective glasses, which aren't in the box. The listing doesn't advertise those, so I wasn't expecting them, but it was really confusing. Instructions also show a dimmer feature that isn't available on this model...again, confusing.

Good

It did what they said it would.
