Description
The very versatile LUMii BLACK² 720/960 LED supplied bundled with two LUMii BLACK 600W Electronic Ballasts and two LUMii Extension/ Link Leads 1.5 m 3 x 0.75 mm Strand. All you need for a complete LED grow lighting rig. Suitable to light a 1.5 m x 1.5 m growing area, or up to 25% more if the LED is hung as two 3-bar fixtures. It can be dimmed as low as 50% (PPF 1073 µmol/s) if only one ballast is used or boosted to 115% (PPF 2596 µmol/s) if both ballasts are used.

FAQs:
Q: Why should I choose LED lighting rather than HID lighting?
A: The advantages of LED are clear. There is little heat output from LED lights, and so heat management is much simpler. Also, the power consumed relative to the light output is far less with an LED fixture than with a HID lamp. With some types of LED light, the spectrum is adjustable to suit either grow or bloom, which is never the case with HID lamps. Other types of LED, such as the LUMii BLACK² 720/960 LED, give full spectrum light suited to both grow and bloom stages, which is not always the case with HID lamps. An LED Fixture gives a much more even spread of light across the canopy, whereas HID lighting must be reflected from a narrow central source – the lamp.
Q: Should I hang my LUMii BLACK² 720/960 LED as a 6-bar fixture, or as two 3-bar fixtures? Which is best?
A: This depends upon your grow operation. If you’re growing in a 1.5 m x 1.5 m tent, then it would be best to hang it as a 6-bar fixture. If you have a large grow room, it would be better to set up an array of 3-bar fixtures hung no more than 50cm apart, to achieve maximum coverage. We recommend that you make a sketch plan of your growing area, and then find the most economical way to hang LUMii BLACK² 720/960 LEDs to light it.
Q: Is it better to use one or two ballasts? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
A: This also depends upon your grow, and how you wish to manage it.
If you use two ballasts, obviously you get more light output, but you can only use 2 of the ballast’s power settings:
Q: At what height should I hang my LUMii BLACK² 720/960 LED?
A: We recommend that you should hang your fixture adjustably, using LUMii Rope Ratchets, and that you set the fixture at around 30-50 cm (minimum 15 cm) above the canopy, adjusting the height as your plants grow. If, for your plants, the light is too intense and the plants show signs of stress, raise the fixture a little, or select a lower power setting on the ballast.
Q: Where should I place the LUMii BLACK 600W Electronic Ballast/s to power the LED Fixture?
A: There are 2 options:
Option 2 makes the heat management of the growing environment is easier, and the Ballast and LED Fixture can be controlled without entry to or disturbance of the grow room.

If you use two ballasts, obviously you get more light output, but you can only use 2 of the ballast’s power settings:
- 75% (400 W) - which gives a light output PPF of 2596 µmol/s
- 50% (250 W) - which gives a light output PPF of 1883 µmol/s
- 115% Boost (600 W Boost) – which gives a light output PPF of 2071 µmol/s
- 100% (600W) - which gives a light output PPF of 1883 µmol/s
- 75% (400W) - which gives a light output PPF of 1431 µmol/s

Q: Where should I place the LUMii BLACK 600W Electronic Ballast/s to power the LED Fixture?
A: There are 2 options:
- A single Ballast may be fitted to the 6-bar LED Fixture using the brackets and fixings supplied.
- The Ballast/s may be positioned remotely (up to 10 M away) from the LED Fixture using the LUMii Extension/ Link Leads provided. This is the only option when using 2 Ballasts, or if hanging as two 3-bar fixtures.
Option 2 makes the heat management of the growing environment is easier, and the Ballast and LED Fixture can be controlled without entry to or disturbance of the grow room.
