HIGROW Review – 1500W Double Chips (Full Spectrum) – LED Grow Light Review
HIGROW Review – 1500W Double Chips (Full Spectrum) – LED Grow Light Review
The Brand
Although HIGROW have been around for a few years, they only recently gained in popularity and are now among the best-selling brands in the industry. In our HIGROW review, we look at the new product line they recently released and how they managed to differentiate themselves by offering highly efficient products at low prices.
This product line offers high power double chips, full spectrum capability and claims to have improved heat dissipation and energy efficiency. The warranty also guarantees a full refund for any return within 30 days which is always a nice way to see if the product fits your usage.
Lastly, don’t forget that power is only one of the factors to consider when purchasing a LED grow light. When comparing grow lighting options there is a lot of information provided that simply does not cover the important characteristics of the equipment. For example, light “watts”: the watts of a light is a measurement of the power consumed. So it does not tell you anything about the quality of the light delivered. However, Watts can be important for determining your future electric bill, your thermal signature and for comparing the relative size of the light. But not for the quality of the lighting delivered. Hence, the two key measurements that matter in comparing the quality of the light delivered are the spectrum that the light includes (ie, the colors the light creates).
