FAQs

What is the actual coverage area of the FC-E 8000?+

The FC-E 8000 provides a core coverage of 4'x4' for flowering and a maximum coverage of 5'x5' for vegetative growth. This makes it an excellent choice for larger grow tents and commercial setups.

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

Both are powerful 800W lights. The primary difference is the diodes used. The FC-E 8000 uses high-quality, cost-effective BridgeLux diodes, while the premium FC 8000 EVO model utilizes top-bin Samsung LM301H EVO diodes for slightly higher efficiency and output.

Can I control multiple FC-E 8000 lights at once?+

Yes. The FC-E 8000 features a daisy-chain function that allows you to connect and control up to 30 lights simultaneously from a single master light. This simplifies management for large-scale operations.

Is this light suitable for both vegetative and flowering stages?+

Absolutely. The full-spectrum output provides all the necessary light wavelengths for the entire plant lifecycle. You can use the built-in dimmer to adjust the intensity, providing gentle light for seedlings and full power for flowering.

Why should I switch from HPS to an LED like the FC-E 8000?+

Switching to a high-efficiency LED like the FC-E 8000 offers significant benefits, including lower electricity consumption, reduced heat output (less need for AC), a longer lifespan, and a more optimized light spectrum for plant growth. You can learn more about the benefits of switching from HPS to LED in our detailed guide.
