What are the components of a complete LED plant growth light? The first is the lamp bead, which is the core of the LED plant light, and it is the part that really plays a role. All other parts serve the lamp bead; then there are power supplies, fans, reflectors or lenses, housings, etc., today it is LED The power supply and shell of the plant light will tell you what you need to pay attention to.

LED grow light power supply

LED power supply is divided into external power supply and built-in power supply, their characteristics are different, it depends on the needs of customers.

The main characteristics of the external power supply are:

(1) It is conducive to heat dissipation, especially when high-power LED grow lights are running, they will generate a lot of heat. External power supply will not cause much problem to the heat dissipation of LED plant lights.

(2) It is inconvenient to install and disassemble. Take high-power LED grow lights as an example. A single power supply can carry a limited number of high-power plant lights, and the efficiency of use cannot be guaranteed. It is inconvenient to move too many lines when it is necessary to move. Conducive to daily maintenance.

The main features of the built-in power supply are:

(1) The characteristic of the built-in power supply is that it is convenient to install and disassemble and is more practical. The built-in power supply will save a lot of daily maintenance troubles, and the integrated design is also convenient to move and install.

(2) Heat dissipation is a problem that all electronic products are always inseparable from. The low-power LED grow lights and the lamp bead chips are more evenly distributed, and the distance is relatively appropriate. No special heat dissipation measures are required; it is better to go back to the high-power LED grow lights. , It dissipates more heat and requires a separate heat sink. Although the cost of materials and technology will increase, the built-in power supply has become a more acceptable way for consumers.

LED grow light housing

(1) Is the housing of the LED grow light easy to install?

The installation environment and the weight of the lamps should be considered here. If it is a small area of plants to fill the light, the impact is not great from the perspective of installation. Generally, you can use a rope to hang it yourself. However, no matter how large and multiple LED grow lights are, as long as they are carefully designed, there will be very sturdy pins around the shell for easy installation, and some of them will provide brackets for easy movement and free adjustment of the illumination angle.

(2) Whether the housing of the LED grow light is convenient for heat dissipation

The main component of plant lamp heat dissipation is the fan. The shell is used as an auxiliary heat dissipation tool. The main influencing factor is its material. The metal shell has a much better heat dissipation effect than the plastic shell. Most of the high-power LED grow lights on the market that require special heat dissipation measures are also used. Using a metal shell, the life of the plastic shell plant lamp will be greatly reduced, which is not conducive to heat dissipation on the one hand, but also affects the life of the lamp beads.

(3) The impact of LED grow light housing on lamp safety

The shell material of LED grow light affects transportation safety: during the transportation of goods, it is inevitable that there will be collisions and shaking lights. The delicate packaging of LED grow light manufacturers is essential when they leave the factory, but for the lamp itself, the quality of the shell material is also It will directly affect the damage rate; the housing of the LED grow light affects the installation safety: whether the installation of the LED grow light is stable and long-lasting directly affects the safety of the lamp and the service life of the lamp. Plastic products are exposed to light, especially strong light. Under the exposure of, its performance will drop linearly, causing potential safety hazards.

The above-mentioned influences on the performance and use of the LED grow light power supply and shell, remind consumers that when deciding whether to buy an LED grow light, they must consider every possible factor in an all-round way and combine their own needs to ensure Safe and efficient use of lights.
