What height do you run your light at? Looks like you filled up your tent pretty nicely? 2 month veg?

I have a solid 500 watts of cobs over my plant. They're always 15+ inches above the canopy until flower where they get lowered to 12 inches. My 300 watt is daisied to my 200 watt. Both lights together cost me about 130 bucks. Been using them for 3 years now.

Hi mate! From my calculations, you should have been able to fit that in a 3x3. I am about to get an 80x80cm so about 2,5 x2,5 (as that's the max I can do currently) and was intending to get a ts2000. So before I make the same mistake can you elaborate on why it didn't fit? Originally I wanted a ts100o, but thats only good for 2x2. So I figured what if I get a ts 2000 and dim it down to 75/80 on bloom and even less on veg. With this I would extend the leds lifespan and there would be less heat produced, so can go slightly closer to the plants even.

Love my ts1000 & ts600. Gotta get another ts1000 to really rock my tent!(32x32x64) Kinda weird though.... Honestly expected half this thread to be about how terrible mars hydro is and how stupid we are for buying them.... Anyways,happy growing everybody!

Hello mate, i have the TSW2000 (the square model not rectangular which is the TSL2000) in my 2x2. Fits perfectly ! I have it dimmed down to 50 right now for the seedling at around 75cm/30inches.

For ventilation i have :
-187m3/h (110cfm) 4inch Exhaust Fan
- 105m3/h (60cfm) 4inch Intake Fan

With the ambient temp being at 23C/73F right now, the temperature inside the tent is getting around 28C-82F at 50%. I was thinking of keeping it at 50% and lowering it further down the road till i reach the flowering period and then turn it to 75%.. then maybe all the way to 100% on the last final weeks of flowering when the plant is ripening, but im sure temps would go all the way up to 35C/95F ...Had first started in DWC but i quickly abandonned when i noticed the temps rising that much in a 2x2, im using a smart pot now with lighmtix soil and the seedling is happier than ever

Hi mate thanks for your response! Good to hear there wont be any worries fitting in an 80x80 then. I saw you were asking about how to adjust it in an earlier thread, this is how I am probably gonna do it myself too:

I saw a lot of people around nowadays using pc fans with potmeters (to be able to adjust it). Read more here. A close friend of mine is doing the same thing and he is extremely happy with the outcome. He has a t1000, and the pc fans are so quiet that he said he had to check if his tent was on at times. For me this will be a closet build, in my bedroom, so keeping noise to the lowest is a must for me. What exhaust fan do you use? How bad is the sound? Cheers bro!

Ive had the light for about a month now , its really easy you just get a small screwdriver , you stick some tape to it aiming at the number for example 100 and then you rotate so you can see where the tape is lol this is some prehistoric way to do it but it works ! I saw that video with the volt meter , i might get one in the future but my way works well too ! Of course maybe not as accurate but its fine for me , in the end they’re going back to 100% so its fine ! I use an extractor fan , its a bit noisy and i have my tent in the hallway , so when i close my bedroom door i dont hear anything ! I suggest you get a better fan for extraction , i use pc fans to cool lights sometimes but thats it ! You’re going to have to use a carbon filter later on , and pc fans wont have enough power to push through the filter
