    Question How long has lasted your Mars Hydro TSW 2000?

    Hello!

    I just try to understand mars hydro tsw 2000 quality. How long has it worked without problems for you? Can somebody give me some insight? As much I understand, it has no Samsung led lights...

    My Mars II lights lasted for one grow. They had bad diodes that burned and plastic power supplies that melted. I wouldn't trust mars not to catch on fire.

    The problem with all the cheapo led lights is corrosion. Even if the leds dont burn out, which Mars Hydro are well known for, the spectrum shifts after a bit of use due to corrosion in the chip.

    You end up with lots of missing spectrum which is not what you paid for.

    Im sure if you complained, they would happily send you out a new board and charge you £100 for the pleasure and expect you to rebuild their light.

    Nice one

    I would recommend a HLG led.
    Here's a link to one of our sponsors. Ask them any questions you have
    and they will help you decided which is best for you.

    I have 125 watt quantum board that I bought from Budget LED a sponsor on the forum. Before that I was using lumi Grow pro 325s, which I still have and are excellent commercial lights. I'm just not growing anything that big anymore.

    Do they still deliver their lights with 'Grow LED' plastered all over the box, for all to see?

    As said above, I have no nice words to say about that company - or their products....
