Mars Hydro TS 1000. Thoughts.

Hello guys and gals <3

Just a quick question i want to replace my 250w HPS cause the heat management is just 2 much to handle and i want to grow in the hotter summer days also cause outdoor just wont go here 2 many thiefs and hunters .
What are your thoughts about it are you satisfied ? Im new to led growing and want some info.
And no i cant buy the 2000 version (i wish i could) its out of my budget rn and i want to start with something not strong.

My grow tent is 80x80x180 (cm)

And yes i know i could search some grow diaries etc and i did but i still want an opinion.

Have an awesome days peeps

That light uses SMD diodes which are still good, but I'd go with lm301b/h diodes if I were you

i might go with the spider farmer then . Needs to be in EU stock like i said im on a budget rn need some other stuff to buy also . Just the Spider farmer support is so fucking bad XD if something isnt right. xD Do we still have a Coupon code as a RIU user ?

I don't really know but make sure you get the correct plug and driver for europe, the ones I posted are for US power outlets I believe

The HLG light is what I would go with and there is a RIU 10 discount which makes it very close to the cost of the other lights, and they have outstanding customer service

also If I didn't go with HLG I woulda gone with https://growlightsaustralia.com/product-category/diy-led-grow-lights/

Nah i cant go with the HLG they dont ship to where i live and probably also would have to pay additional taxes and other shit ... I will go with the SPiderfarmer if anything . I wanted to buy the lumatek attis 300W but gawd damm 450€ is a bit to much for me to start with leds . 160€ is max im paying rn since like i said that my estimated budget rn . But yeah i heard only good stuff about HLG light .

I bought a marshydro tsl 2000 and I think it’s great it has the dimmer on there so it’s a newer model I’m going to buy another I think they’re that good

I own one.

It's a decent budget light and has been vegging all my plants since last Sept, plants love it.

I've run it 18/6, for 6 months in 2.2'×3'×5' tent. Then my plants got too big so I put them outside the tent. Still loving the light. In pic, is two 5 gal on outside, four 1 gal inside, and room for a few more, just too crowded with 5 gal.

I can pull consistently, 2gpw on that tsl1000 in a 2.5x2.5 tent without co2

I got the old one too, you’re a hell of a lot better than people think... before I switched over to a optic slim 650 S..... I have pulled 78.25 g per square foot with that tsl-2000, without co2 as well

I have the TSW 2000 and i honestly love it. Solid light. Also owned a TS600, my dad now uses it to keep a mother plant.

It's like a really nice Toyota Corolla SE but in growlight form, lol

I would be crazy to tell you that you can’t get er done with a TS1000 the last pic is the same plant right before flower started.

It’s a good light I’m going to buy another to fill my tent with mine are babies at moment so I’m only using it at 50% and I’m in love with it if it produces the bud I want I’ll never stop using them

Fiiiiiiire

I use the 1000 and the 2000. The 1000 works great in a 2x2 tent or as additional lighting and or spectrum boost. No complaints.
