Achieve professional-grade yields while keeping your operating costs low. California Lightworks engineers powerful, high-intensity LED grow lights designed to give growers maximum return on investment. The celebrated SolarXtreme Series, ranging from the compact SX-250 to the commercial-grade SX-1000, delivers truly uniform, full-spectrum light that drives vigorous growth and dense flowering from seed to harvest. Built with a rugged, passive-cooling design, these fixtures eliminate the need for complicated setups, ensuring a seamless, plug-and-play experience that simplifies your transition to high-performance LED technology. Stop compromising on intensity or spectrum and power your indoor garden with a solution trusted by cultivators nationwide.
California Lightworks maintains a singular focus: crafting the most effective and reliable LED solutions in the industry. By combining high-efficacy diodes with state-of-the-art thermal management, every fixture is built to deliver predictable, repeatable results, cementing its reputation as a cornerstone of modern indoor growing.
Light intensity often drops off dramatically at the edges and lower canopy, limiting your potential yield. California Lightworks solves this core problem with engineered precision:
The SolarXtreme series provides a perfect lighting match for any grow space, from small tents to large commercial rooms, all while maintaining the core benefits of high PAR and energy savings.
What is the advantage of the full-spectrum light used in the SolarXtreme series?
The full-spectrum light mimics natural sunlight, which is crucial for optimal plant development. This allows you to use one light from the seedling stage all the way through to the final weeks of flowering, promoting vigorous vegetative growth and maximizing the density and resin production of your final harvest.
How do California Lightworks LEDs help me save on energy and cooling costs?
LEDs inherently use less electricity than traditional HID or HPS fixtures. Specifically, the SolarXtreme series uses a highly efficient, direct-to-wallboard design that minimizes power loss and heat generation. This results in dramatically lower power bills and reduces the load on your dehumidification and cooling systems.
How do I choose the correct size SolarXtreme model for my grow tent?
The model number roughly correlates to its coverage area: the SX-250 is great for a 2'x2' space, the SX-500 works well for a 3'x3' or 4'x4' tent, and the SX-1000 is designed for large 5'x5' to 8'x8' areas. Always check the light's PPFD chart against the recommended requirements for the specific plant stage you are targeting.
What is the expected lifespan of a California Lightworks LED fixture?
Most high-quality LED fixtures, including the SolarXtreme line, are rated for an L90 lifespan of 50,000+ hours. This means the light will still operate at 90% of its original intensity after over five years of continuous use, offering exceptional long-term reliability compared to traditional bulbs.
Does the SolarXtreme series require an external lighting controller?
No. The SolarXtreme models are designed for simple, plug-and-play operation and do not require a separate controller for power on/off. They are fully compatible with standard timers and can be used with a variety of lighting controllers if you wish to integrate them into a larger automated system.
Where can I find tips on maximizing my yield with this kind of high-intensity LED?
We recommend checking out our comprehensive growing guides, such as our article on optimizing your environment for high-intensity LED light. You will find essential advice on managing VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and nutrient uptake to fully capitalize on the power and efficiency of the SolarXtreme lights. (e.g., Read the guide here)
