MEIZHI Review – Reflector Series 900W Full Spectrum – LED Grow Light Review
The Brand
MEIZHI is a newcomer on the market and, as for several other new brands we reviewed recently, offers powerful LED grow lights at a highly competitive price. Placing themselves in the same market than brands like Viparspectra or BESTVA.
Every MEIZHI Reflector Series light boasts a 120° reflector panel, 12-band full spectrum, dual growth and bloom Switches. Heat dissipation is optimised using high quality aluminium heat sinks, fast speed cooling fans and dense vents. We will try in this MEIZHI review to see if it matches the same durability and light quality than the competitors mentioned above.
Lastly, don’t forget that power is only one of the factors to consider when purchasing a LED grow light. When comparing grow lighting options there is a lot of information provided that simply does not cover the important characteristics of the equipment. For example, light “watts”: the watts of a light is a measurement of the power consumed. So it does not tell you anything about the quality of the light delivered. However, Watts can be important for determining your future electric bill, your thermal signature and for comparing the relative size of the light. But not for the quality of the lighting delivered. Hence, the two key measurements that matter in comparing the quality of the light delivered are the spectrum that the light includes (ie, the colors the light creates).
MEIZHI Review – Reflector Series 900W Full Spectrum – LED Grow Light Review
– The MEIZHI newly updated LED grow lights (Reflector Series) boast a 120° reflector panel and connect with plating process to maximise reflection of dispersed light on plants, a great way to optimise efficiency.
– Coverage and Consumption – The MEIZHI 900W grow light is ideal for 3ft*4.5ft growing area at the height of 18 inches, while it only consumes 418W±5% @ 110V. It can replace 900W HPS/HID/MH traditional lights.
– IR Design – MEIZHI 900W LED grow light has 6 IR LEDs, which can look dimmer but help to promote cell division when plants are at bloom stage. The result is a slightly increased harvest when the plants are ripened.
– 12-Band Full Spectrum : Bloom and Growth switches to control spectrum, MEIZHI 900W LED lights could fit for indoor and greenhouse hydroponic setups for all stages (seedling, veg, budding and flowering). When we tested it, even if the light didn’t exactly match the quality of higher end brands like Advanced Platinium Series LED grow lights, we must admit we were impressed by the light delivered, one of the best in its price range.
– Heat Dissipation System – Very efficient with high quality aluminium heat sinks, quiet cooling fans, dense vents on four sides, and speed control.
