BE THE 1ST TO HAVE X2!

 

In an effort to continuously improve our products, Hydro Grow is making alterations to our design that will allow for significant performance enhancements over previous Extreme (X1) models. Due to our business model wherein we only offer the latest and most efficient technologies to our customers, we will no longer be offering the X1 version (red casing) of our lights for sale.


The X2 lights will use a re-designed silver casing that will be slimmer and leaner, with the same coverage as X1 models. X2 will use a new version of the Hydro Grow X-lens that is 25% more powerful than X1 (shown below), and because of our incredible thermal management we've bumped the power on all 3W "X-PRO" models an additional 15%! That's a total increase around 35% compared to X1 at no increase in cost! Get your X2 LED Grow Light today and find out what the hype is all about!

Extreme (X) Lenstm technology changing the face of led grow lights for an entire industry.

the foundation of any led grow light is the led. more important than the led
however, is the optic used to direct light from it. standard led grow lights
use a led attached to a pcb (printed circuit board), with a small lens covering
each individual chip. this design proved capable, yet despite the availability
of 60 degree, 90 degree, and 120 degree lenses to focus output, a fair
majority of the light emitted from the lens fell outside it's primary
"viewing angle". Observing this, hydro grow sought out a way to re-
focus this light and direct it back towards the plants where it can be used.

 

led's have been used in many products during the past 20 years, including flashlights, street
lights, and Stage Lights. One thing
all of these products shared is that
they utilized a second, and much larger
lens over the led to re-focus light. it was found during testing that this lens not only altered the projection properties
of light, but also amplified output. observing this, hydro grow began testing on over 20 different types of secondary lenses to pick the one with the best output characteristics for led grow lights.

intensify our patent- pending 21-led light engine confi-
guration. PAR testing co-
mparing our 126W PRO
to our 126X-PRO, showed that the x-lens
produced nearly double
the coverage at over
twice the intensity, equating to 4x the output!
our patent-pending X-lens is the
culmination of 4 years of ongoing
development at hydro grow,
designed to increase intensity
and coverage area simultane
-ously. The X-lens is a single
piece of optics grade pmma
acrylic, the same type used in
corrective eyeglasses. each
x-lens is constructed of 21 uniquely
engineered amplification optics to
while 4x the output was a tremendous achieve- ment for led grow lights, our secon- dary goal was to ensure even spread of light intensity throughout the area covered. to an ensure an even spread, the led's had to be spaced further apart compared to previous models, with light engines spread further from each other on the panel. the x-lens was also given a convex design opposed to a concave or flat design, as it gives the led more surface area and allows for a more even dispersion of light.

The final goal for the x-lens was to ensure the highest penetration possible, using the 400W, 600W, and 1000W HPS as our benchmark to beat. careful detail was put into the precise shaping of our x-lens to ensure maximum light projection. as a result our 336X-PRO emits the same amount of par light at 36", as a 1000W HPS at 48"! this means more light is delivered to the lower parts of your plants, providing deeper penetration for bigger fruits and heavier yields.

Copper Core Heatsinks. Improving Thermal Management for increased lifespan and output.

 

Junction Temperature vs. Relative Luminous Flux graph.

Much like computers, LED's are a chip-based technology and their operating temperature not only affects performance, but lifespan as well. one factor that determines temperature is how much current is passing through the led. The max current a 1W LED can handle is 350mA, and for 3W LED's it is 700mA. The higher the current passing through the led, the hotter it will become. It is therefore very important that 3W LED's have increased thermal manage-ment compared to 1W led's.


The graph above comes from Cree and shows how operating temperatures affect light output from led's. The optimal temperature for led's is between 77-90°F, where output remains between 98-100%. As temperature increases, efficiency decreases to where at only 150°F output has fallen 10%! this reduction in output efficiency also causes faster decay to the led. hydro grow has tested many led grow lights from competitors using 3W led's, and found that the majority of these lights operate between 145-170°F! LED's decay approximately 30% over 50,000 hours of use when operated between 77-122°F, but when temperatures rise above 122°F the rate of decay can increase dramatically. It is therefore very important that a led grow light operate below 122°F to ensure full lifespan.

 

copper heatsinkmaintaining led's at their optimal operating temperature requires heavy-duty heatsinking. our previous penetrator and penetrator pro lights were engineered by china, and produced with flat-plate, aluminum heatsinks like most other led grow lights from china. using this design our 345W PRO reached operating temperatures as high as 127°F, while our 345W reached 105°F. while these temperatures are tolerable, hydro grow is obsessed with having the highest efficiency possible, so we engineered our own cooling system.


three qualities of a heatsink that affect its ability to cool are the materials it is made of, the thickness of those materials, and the overall surface area of the heatsink. Thick aluminum was chosen as the primary metal for our heatsink due to its lightweight properties. We paired this aluminum with a 3mm copper insert, since copper has approximately 2x the conductivity of aluminum and helps reduce semidconductor temperatures. Copper also provides for a more even heat transfer from one surface to the next, reducing "hot spots". the heatsink was then finished with ultra-thin fins to increase surface area and dissipate heat faster.


because operating currents affect the need for cooling, hydro grow chose 3 different thickness heatsinks for our product lines. an 8mm heatsink was created for our eco and eco+ (0.5W) models, a 15 mm heatsink was created for our penetrator-x (1W) models, and a 20mm heatsink was created for our penetrator x-prO (3W) models. We then tested our 336X-PRO in a room where the ambient temperature was 78°F, and after 6 hours of use it reached operating temperatures of only 82°F! compared to the chinese engineering on our 345W PRO, our new 336X-PRO now operates a full 45°F (35%) cooler! This means 100% lifespan and 100% light output from all of our 1W and 3W models!

intelligence in modularity. Smarter Manufacturing meets consumer servicablity.
1. an approach that subdivides a system into smaller parts (modules) that can be created independently for use in multiple products.
2. composed of standardized units or sections for easy construction or flexible arrangement
3. composed of hardware modules that can be altered or replaced without affecting the remainder of the system.
 

Exclusive to hydro grow's extreme led grow lights is our patent-pending, modular manufacturing process. Rather than building a light where all led's are contained on a single pcb (printed circuit board), each of our 21-LED light engines has its own pcb to operate independent of the others. to build a module, each pcb is "sandwiched" between a heatsink and X-lens via phillips head screws. Once assembled and connected to a power supply, each module is essentially its own led grow light. our intelligent design is then finished off with clip-in electrical connectors, making assembly and dissasembly a snap.

 

The hydro grow modular design holds many advantages over competng led grow lights. For example, if a single pcb fails the rest of the light continues to operate as usual. There is no need to discontinue use of the light, and to diagnose the problem usually takes less than 15 minutes. Once diagnosed a new part is sent to you for clip-in or screw-in installation, which takes another 15-20 minutes. if dealing with the competition you may wait weeks to receive a functioning light after sending it in for repair, but thanks to our modular design there is no "down-time" in the event of a warranty issue.

 

 

The ability to upgrade parts is Another unique advantage to the hydro grow modular design. each component is made in such a way that if a new one is developed in the future (ie: a higher performance lens), you can simply purchase the upgraded part rather than buying a whole new light. each part is easily interchanged, requiring only a phillips head screwdriver for assembly.

 

it 's a fact that LED's double in efficiency every 3 years, yet have a rated lifespan of 50,000-100,000 hours. this means new led's will be available with twice the output of the ones you purchase today, long before they expire. Thanks to our Intelligent design you will be able to purchase new pcb's loaded with led's to upgrade your light. in this way our design can end up saving you thousands over the lifespan of our units compared to competing led grow lights.

336X-pro
Phenomenal Lights- easily better yield than my 600w HPS with substantially less heat and energy usage. Along with the peace of mind that comes with less worrying about burning my house down! The staff is extremely helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable as well. These lights have replaced all my HPS flowering lights, and i look forward to getting the X2 upgrade kits. I have absolutely no doubt that these lights will pay for themselves in the upcoming year. Thanks a lot y'all! e

X Versions and more!
Wow! Great lights or what! I currently own several generations of the Penetrator line, and they all perform! From the original 1w 126 models, which are great as seedling lights, cloning, and veg start up. The 3w pros work great for power vegging, and setting up for flowering. I have a couple of the x and x-pro prototypes, which power the whole plant through flowering. I have a couple of the 345w panels, which truth be known, are my main flower monsters! The spectrum and the power on these original units, are made for flower! I will be ordering a couple of the new x-2 pro units soon, to continue the family. You just can't go wrong with these lights, as they grow like nothing else! **Note: I own 10 units, purchased over the last 3 years. 6 complete grows, with only 2 power supply failures. Both happened early on, and were replaced free within 2 weeks (self installed). 2 years since without a glitch! Money well spent!

Generation "X" Kicks some serious Ass folks!
Comparing Hydro Grow LED Lights to the competition, is like comparing a BMW to a KIA, hands down - the the HGL lights blow the competition out-of-the-green-room. I've had my fair shake with LED Jumbo's and other "me too" gee whiz bang panels from other vendors, and I was this close to throwing in the towel on the "LED Technology" altogether… However, not all LED panels are created equal. Just because the Kia will get you from point A; to point B; doesn't mean you're driving in style. "Yay!" you might say; but what about the million dollar question? "LED VS HID" Well, I just have to tell you this: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. When I received my first 336X Pro, I like calling them (The X Factor…) I fired it up immediately. 45 days later, I was so impressed I couldn't contain myself. So, you're probably wondering what happened at 90 days… Simple, I called up and placed another order -- but this time it was for an additional 7 lights!

3X the Efficiency of my HPS!
We just finished our second cycle done under (4)- 336-xpros. These lights are advertised to exceed a 1000w HPS, but I think the folks at Hydro Grow are selling themselves short with this claim. They're really comparable to more like 1500w of HPS. Our girls flower rapidly & evenly like we've never seen before under the 336s. Yield this time was just over 6.5 lbs (dry) of beautiful dense bud from the 4 (2000w total). This is about the same as we were getting from 6000w of HPS with the same mother, nutes & veg & flower times. In addition to this my room now never goes above 85 degrees and vents for a few minutes an hour at the most. No more throwing Co2 out the window! My lights are paid for twice over now and with LED technology and modular design I expect to get dozens of crops out of them without dishing out anymore $$.

Easily as good as the hype
This light is truly awesome. I decided to finally get an led light and im glad I waited as these new penetrators are easily out performing my 1000w lights at home. They are so powerfull that if you have them too close they will actually bleach your leaves. If your going to buy led buy these, I spent weeks of research and even got robbed by a fake company online before I came to find these penetrators. Im never looking back now the future is bright the future is led

Don't Underestimate this Light!
I have nothing but good things to say about these lights & the service at Hydro Grow! The intensity of the x lens is impressive for sure and we've already fried our young plants twice by underestimating that and putting the light to close. Oops! Think we've got it figured out now. No doubt in my mind the x-series are the best lights in the industry right now. I'll take another 7 and call in a visa later today. Thanks again

336 x-pro
I just opened the box and plugged it in two days ago. My plants were under T5 doing great. Now under 336X-pro its like the plants are on steroids. They really shot up. Im starting with three week old seedlings and some cloned friends, taking them all the way with to harvest with the 336xpro. Ill keep posting with progress.

Incredibly Intense Part 2
Here is the update I promised to my first review. I'm using the 345w Penetrator Pro in a 3' x 6' space with a Light Rail 3.5 mover. My plants are about 3' tall now and are a week from harvest. The foliage is dense from top to bottom and even with that density my plants are flowering profusely all the way down to the media as if there were another light a few inches above the pots...amazing light penetration! Even with the upfront cost this is a winner for me. Its projected lifetime is ~50,000 hours with no ongoing costs. At 367 actual watts used it uses less than half the power a 1000w HID uses during those 50,000 hours. And because the light runs cool it eliminates the fire danger of HID and the cost and hassle of dealing with the heat. No more worries about fire! Best of all, the yield is better than with a 1000w HID! Last update... Yield is 1.5 GPW! Not bad for the first run. I hope to break 2 GPW on the next crop. Thank you, Hydro Grow for another excellent product!
