Overview  Rugged, waterproof, glass lens, 100-277 VAC. This unit is built to last.  Our far red lightbar is the most popular 4' long 730nm grow light on the market today. Industrial grade construction. All aluminium housing. Internal LED driver.  About Growing with Far Red Energy Far-red light is good for plant growth. It can increase photosynthesis, enhance growth, and increase plant size. Far-red light is significant to plants because it increases the ability of plants to capture light. Plants use light not only as a source of energy, but also for information about the surrounding environment. Far-red light is typically not absorbed much by plant leaves, and it doesn't drive any photosynthesis because it is mostly reflected off leaves. However, if a plant "senses" a greater ratio of far-red to normal light then it "knows" that obstructions or other plants are close to it. Far-red light can also regulate leaf angle and increase plant height and leaf area, via expression of associated genes, to capture more light energy. The lightbar features a crystal lens that covers the diodes, making it waterproof and resistant to overspray. Additionally, the lightbar is designed to be easily moved and bumped around, making it one of the most versatile and user-friendly grow lights on the market. However, what sets this light apart from others is its ability to stimulate plant morphology. By emitting a high intensity of far red light, the FGI Far Red Lightbar encourages plant growth and development, making it the perfect choice for any serious gardener or farmer. Use far red energy in veg to keep plants compact and strong. Recent studies at Utah State University by Dr Bruce Bugbee, have proven that additional energy, even in the red spectrum, keeps plants more compact.  The science of using far red light on plants Recent studies at the University of Texas El Paso / University of Texas Arlington, concluded that plants exposed to full spectrum plus dosing with far red spectrum, increased overall plant mass/yield and also improved terpene profiles. Read the study here. The light coverage of this product is unmatched. It will fully cover a 4' wide grow tray in bloom and generally covers a 2' wide swath. We recommend a pair for each 4x4 grow space and this unit comes with hardware which allows you to position it inside the frame of most 5 and 8 bar full spectrum LEDs. This light system is one of the best on the market and will give your plants the light they need to thrive. Order now and be sure to get your grow space set up correctly so you can achieve maximum light coverage. Targeting the Emerson Effect. The Emerson Effect is the name given to the increase in the rate of photosynthesis that occurs when chloroplasts are exposed to far red energy just before the nighttime lights off cycle. This effect was first discovered by scientist Alexander Emerson in 1883, and it has since been extensively studied by plant biologists. While the Emerson Effect is typically associated with increases in photosynthesis, it can also lead to other changes in plant physiology, such as increased cell division and growth. One way to take advantage of the Emerson Effect is to use our supplimental far red LED grow light for 10-15 minutes after full spectrum lights are turned off. If you are looking to create the ideal environment for your plants, an LED grow light can help you to achieve the Emerson Effect.   Far Red Spectrum Use We recommend 2 units per 4x4 grow space for daytime enhanced PPFD delivery. Height over canopy should be the same as your full spectrum LED but it will not hurt the plants to hang beneath a 4x4 LED.  Time General use: Studies indicate that dosing with far red light is most effective with 4 hours on, 4 off, and 4 on. We recommend a digital wall timer, or if using TrolMaster the DSP-1 (for 110V connections) or a DSP-2 (for 240V).  Emerson Effect:  10-15 minutes after full spectrum lights are turned off. Plant Morphology Theory Plants use phytochrome to detect and respond to red and far-red wavelengths. Phytochromes are signaling proteins that promote photomorphogenesis in response to red light and far-red light. Phytochrome is the only known photoreceptor that absorbs light in the red/far red spectrum of light (600-750 nm). (source: Wikipedia) Far Red light is believed to create a competitive response in plants, pushing desirable terpene production and assisting in the formation of trichomes.   Read more about Far Red and extended spectrum in this recent release from Design Lights Consortium: Read It Here   ~Technical Specs~ Product 30W（±5%） PPF 72.1 umols/s  100-277VAC,50/60 Hz 102.3BTU IP65 44.88”x 2.24”x 1.53” 4.4 lbs Photometric Test Report Download  Product Warranty (see our warranty here) 3 year warranty

The FGI Dimming Controller provides control over one or many LEDs or 0-10V capeable ballasts. Designed to operate lighting over distances up to 100 feet, the FGI Dimming Controller features robust controls to manage your grow room environment. Connect the controller to an entire room and build sunrise, sunset scenarios to gently wake your plants and put them to bed as nature does in the wild. Or manage rooms and connect several Dimming Controllers to manage strain specific rows or vertical racks of LEDs. Automatically assists in room temperature control by dimming down lights if the temperature setting shows the room is too hot. Adjusts light levels back up when the room is within the setting you choose. Set on and off timers and program sunrise and sunset dimming to mimic natural sunlight and get the most out of your plants.  For use with; All 0-10V dimmable LEDs (see your driver specifications) Not for use with our FGI Hortibest Commercial Series LEDs. Please view the Hortibest Master Controller.   All 0-10V controllable lighting (may require custom wiring - or TrolMaster ECS cable kits which can be used universally.) Control one or many lights.  Programmable Sunrise and Sunset Mode. System over temperature protection built in to protect your plants from accidental overheating in your grow space programming auto-dimming to reduce heat output. Attractive and easy to use touchscreen programming. 110V powered with battery backup. This unit is powerful enough to connect properly daisy chained units up to 30 meters from the control module.   Q&A: Is this Controller an On/Off switch? Not with the V1 version however yes with our new V2 version which will dim the Uniformity Pro 320 and Uniformity Pro 640 to off. This controller can be used with LED drivers which have the ability to dim to zero to turn your light off. It will not eliminate power to the light. It will however turn off the diodes if your driver has dim to zero capability.   Can the FGI Dimming Controller operate non-FGI LEDs? Yes, it can operate any LED that has a driver (power supply) that allows zero to ten volt dimming (0-10V). Consult the specifications of your LED light, or the specifications of the driver/power supply in the light itself. Most drivers have labels affixed to them that indicate their ability to do 0-10V dimming. How can I tell if my driver is 0-10V? 1. Look at the specifications for the model number of the driver, usually printed on a label on the driver. 2. Look for an indication on the label that the driver is 0-10V dimmable. 3. Look for a pair of wires on the driver/power supply that are NOT used to provide power to the light. Typically these are blue/black but can be a variety of colors based on the manufacturer. Can I connect the FGI Dimming Controller directly to the line voltage power on the light? No. Do not connect the Controller directly to line voltage power in your LED. It will damage the controller and void the return. Can this controller turn my LED totally off? Yes for the FGI Uniformity Pro series LEDs. No, it cannot dim the FGI Lightpanel or Lightbar products to off. For non FGI LEDs it depends on the driver/power supply. Consult the specifications for your driver. If the driver has the ability to "Dim To Off", then it is likely but not 100% that our Controller can dim your lights to off. Otherwise they will dim to 10% of the total light output only. Can I connect many lights to one controller? And if so how many? This depends on the distance you are trying to connect your lights over and the quality of the wire you use. We recommend insulated AWG 14 2 lead wire sold here on Amazon. And we also recommend you use IP68 twist connectors also sold here on Amazon to create a water proof, dust proof daisy chain. 3 way IP68 T connectors are ideal for this application.
