Kaduns Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Hi, I am mainly growing pepers but the knowledge on this forum exedes the ones for chiliplants that i am a member on. Im in for another led for a 2x2 and wondering if i should go for the Mars hydro TS1000 or Telos 6 pro? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 It seems a little unfair to compare them, the price points are very different. If you want the mesh system on the Telos it costs a bit more, which means you can dim it easily and set up lighting schedules and what not. I believe without the mesh system you need a little screw driver to dim it. Major difference for me is the Telos is built in the UK so for me that's the one I'd want as I try not to buy Chinese when possible as they have appalling health and safety laws for their workers. It's about £200 more with the mesh system though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satchitananda Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 For a 2x2 I would get this https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=3QBQXbuZSE8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaduns Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 @KC thanks for your input mate i will take a look att the mesh version, seems to be a smoth way to controll dimmer, sunset and timer. @Satchitananda the viper is intersting and have nice set of specs. I already have the Mars TS1000 im happy with it, also have the lumatek 465 pro and 300 pro. I will reasearch a bit more before i make up my mind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Seriously??? That's shocking Mars hydro it is then!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubs Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I'd go for a Viparspectra xs1500 Pro. The footprint looks fantastic in a 2x2. I'm planning to get a few of them to cover a larger space. @Military Grade uses one I think. Maybe check out one of his grows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axiom Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I could give a shit where it's made. All my Mars Hydro lights treat me good. Got them for the low on AliEx. Would buy more if I needed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumroom Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Is it economically viable using LEDs to grow peppers? Atb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 If only more people did it, we wouldn't have to go sneaking or grow equipment in the house. Imagine the coppers face when they kick your door in to discover a bunch of Carolina Reapers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaduns Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 (edited) @KC well then, maybe i can inspire you with some photos:) or is that against the regulations to post on other plants than cannabis?

KC Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Yeah get some up if you can work out how there is a guide if you get stuck. I meant to do some chilles this year but I never got around to it, apparently they're really hard to germinate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
