Par Max electrode-less frequency discharge lamp (EFDL) is the latest in lighting technology. This technology rivals all existing lighting forms including HID and LED light sources in light output and longevity.
EFDL works very similar to fluorescent lights but it does not have electrodes to excite gases. Instead it uses electromagnetic induction at 2.65 Mhz. The result is an extremely long life with low light degradation and high light output with very little heat output. The shape of the lamp allows better light distribution and the low heat output allows you to position the lamps inches above the plant canopy to produce greater light penetration.
Like the Par Max CFL's, the Par Max EFDL's come in 2700 and 6400 Kelvin colour for maximum PAR light spectrum that plants use. EFDL technology is by far the most energy efficient, most PAR output and best performing plant light available today hands down.
Benefits of Par Max EFDL plant light:
- available from 85 to 400 watt
- Maximum PAR light output
- available in 2700 and 6400K for all stages of plant growth
- energy efficient 80-90Lm/w and 120-150PLm/W long life 100000 hrs it maybe the last grow light you need to buy has twice the life of LED and ten times the life of HID
- instant start
- low mercury content
- better light distribution
- low light degradation (5%@2000hrs compared to HID 30%@2000 Hrs.)
- low heat output allows light to be positioned inches above plant canopy for maximum light penetration.
