FAQs

What is the actual power draw of the FC 8000 EVO?+

The FC 8000 EVO draws approximately 800 watts from the wall. This makes it one of the most powerful options in the Mars Hydro lineup, designed for maximum output.

What size grow tent is recommended for this light?+

For optimal flowering results, a 4'x4' grow tent is ideal. For vegetative growth, it can effectively cover up to a 5'x5' area. This light is a perfect match for larger grow tents designed for high yields.

What makes the Samsung LM301H EVO diodes special?+

These are top-of-the-line diodes known for their high efficiency (PPE of 2.9 μmol/J) and an optimized light spectrum that leads to better canopy penetration and higher quality yields. To learn more, check out our article on the benefits of switching from HPS to LED.

Can I connect multiple FC 8000 EVO lights together?+

Absolutely. You can daisy-chain up to 30 FC 8000 EVO lights and control their brightness simultaneously from a single master light, making it a highly scalable solution for commercial setups.

How does the FC 8000 EVO differ from the FC-E 8000 model?+

The primary difference is the diodes. The FC 8000 EVO uses premium Samsung LM301H EVO diodes for the highest possible efficiency and output. The FC-E 8000 is a more cost-effective model that offers excellent performance for its price point but uses different diodes.

Is CO2 supplementation necessary with this light?+

While not strictly required, the FC 8000 EVO is specifically designed to excel in CO2-enriched environments. Its high PPFD output allows plants to utilize the extra CO2 for significantly accelerated growth and maximum yields.
