Quick question on LED light purchase for grow tent.

If you had the choice would you buy two Mars Hydro TS 1000's or one Mars Hydro TS 2000. This is for a 3x3 tent. I'm figuring having two lights would be more dynamic and have more options than just the one. Thanks!

Id go with the one 2000. Honestly tho look into spiderfarmer sf1000 or sf2000 they are a better light in the same price range. HLG if you have the coin..

In a 3x3 2 1000s wouldn't be great.

Inefficient and overpriced. 72 watts with a "typical PPF" of 108 μmol/second and a qe (quantum efficiency?) of 1.5 μmol/joule. I don't know if you saw this light at Home Depot, but if that is where you want to buy a grow light they usually sell (Horticulture Lighting Group) HLG 65 V2, HLG 100 V2 and HLG 550 V2 R-Spec. One of the those would be a better option than the ETI Elite Grow 72.

What are you looking to use the light for? Maybe you can start a thread if you are looking for help in making a decision.

EDIT: ETI Grow Elite 72 watt

The ETI is what's known as a blurple, totally obsolete tech, return if you can. The HLG lights Barristan mentioned are excellent.
The HLG 65, like many other lights, will crush the ETI light. It has 50% higher efficiency and a much better light spectrum.

I would but they were 18$ somehow at our local home depot but there really 200$

You're saying you got HLG branded quantum boards at Home Depot for $18?

Yup

Enjoy the shake lol

I bought the TS1000 about 2 months ago and have been using it for some seeds and clones. Does its job but its my 1st LED light. I will say that I just bought 2 of the 135w diy kits from HLG yesterday. Will be using those and giving the Mars light to the lady for her house plants and projects. the TS1000 driver and light shield gets extremely hot w/o a fan. Clipped a 6" fan above it and its much cooler now.

Before you go running down to Home Depot, I think @JuiceStain420 is referring to this light:
