California Lightworks Solarstorm 440 Review
Yet another California Lightworks grow lamp is up for review and yet again they have knocked it out of the park! The California Lightworks Solarstorm 440 review LED grow is the best grow light available in the $500-$1,000 price range
The SolarStorm 440 features 88 high power 5 watt US made LED emitters for a total nominal power of 440 watts (88 x 5). The SolarStorm 440 also features a unique supplemental UV-B mode which is essential to develop higher potency. The sun naturally contains large amounts of UVB. HID lights do not deliver any significant levels of UVB and no other LED grow light in the market covers that UVB spectrum adaquately, because LED diodes are narrow band and focus their light in a narrow spectrum. The SolarStorm employs unique T8 fluorescent UVB bulbs integrated into the fixture with a separate control. The UVB bulbs are typically turned on during final few weeks or “finishing” phase of the grow cycle to boost the potency of the final harvest. The SolarStorm 440 is designed to replace a 600W HPS or Metal Halide system. It is great for medium size or home grow operations. It can be used on light movers to cover larger areas and get even better results.
The California Lightworks Solarstorm 440 review has two unique features: A switch to change the light spectrum from Veg to Bloom and supplemental built-in UV-B bulbs with their own switch. Having the ability to switch your light fixture between Veg and Bloom allows for lush vegetative growth and power savings in Veg mode while maximizing intensity and delivering the best yield in Bloom mode.
