The biggest advantage this light provides in my humble opinion is that if you're growing multiple cultivars or have plants at different growth stages in the same tent you can adjust the heights of each module to suit each one individually
I'm still using the original Migros which were some of the best grow lights I've ever had. It's time for an upgrade and if like to continue to support Migro. Are these a noticeable improvement over the originals or should I look elsewhere?
6 inches is very close for floweing. If like me youd have 2 autoflowers under this it would prove tricky * Edit I since bought one of these and im seriously impressed. My plants are the biggest healthiest ive grown other than outdoors. What a difference a light makes !

If you want to plug into 240 volt, order the 240 volt driver. Shane makes lights for the european market as well as n.american. Order the right one for your area.
I have a doubt, I'm from Argentina and the wall output is 220v, should I use a converter or something so it doesn't blow up? hahah, was thinkin' about getting the Array 3 and in a future add an Array 2. Currently I have a 4x4 tent, with a similar led but from other supplier. This one uses Samsung's chips and they are a must in my opinion, mine uses SMD5730-LM80
@@MIGROLIGHT Doubt: The driver has a button to switch between local and remote When I switch it to remote, the light intensifies, when I switch it to local decreases. By default I left it on Local, but…. What is that button for? Thanks!
POINT 3 on your negatives....if someone is wanting the array 4, 8 or 12, then they are better off getting and hanging array 2's, so they can hang at different heights, if need be or doing a perpetual grow. with the advantage of only one ratchet to adjust on each light.
Its fully modular design so you can do that with any of them. There is a driver for the Aray2 and another driver for the Aray4. If you buy the Aray12, you will receive 3x Aray4's (I know because I have them)
@@kevinmilligan3872 ive had good results so far! 100% power all the way through. The growth was very short and bushy compared to when I was using HPS lights. Temps are lower but I also moved to smaller space so I have added a 20L dehumidifer with drain because it would be almost 90% RH when lights out. Another thing would be that the plants require slightly less nutrients, about 25% less. I burned some plants by using as much as I did when using HPS lights
@Christoffer last-minute change I've ended up getting two lumitek 600 pro 2.9. I wanted to be able to push them more and add co2 in the future if i feel like upgrading I like the idea that they have too much power they can be just turned down until I figure out co2
I had 2 Aray 3 lights but I sold them. The lightbars themselves are good but the construction is wobbly. It's impossible to get the bars level and the light always wants to rotate. All the weight hangs from one electric cable that has to be bent to fit the hanger. Plus you can't hang the light close to the ceiling because of the hanging construction. The no name drivers feel cheap and both made a squeeking noise. I see they have made some improvements to the design now.
You need a Full Spectrum Light(which is all colors -which is white light) , Plants don't care much if its more cold or warm type Light. The UVA Led's seen on many Fixtures nowaday have a low lifespan and are just blue Photons for the Plant. It should have Far Red, which is the only that really make a difference but got some extra Red diodes. Extra Red Diodes besides Far-Red are for upscaling the Photon Output, cause Red LED diodes are more efficient than other colors, and its a good sign of Build Quality if they are less of them on the Fixture. I can recommend looking on Videos of Dr. Bruce Bugbee for reference.
@@Diranar851 wtf are you taking about? I’m the 1st one to tell dude there is plenty of blue in 5000k leds Try reading and comprehension before commenting.
Lmfao what? It just goes to show you been smoking too much moldy weed from dispos. This light will literally last you for a decade or more. And soil is cheap . It costs about 22 cents a gram to produce high quality craft cannabis. Including electric.
This light is not $1000 or even 50% less at $500. It's only $160 and 125w so won't cost 200 per month on electricity. If someone has a 1000 dollar light then they are using a 4x4 or above, so would expect to grow about 20 - 30 oz even in a 4x4. with a $1000 dollar light So do the math
My friend! It is worth it and not as expensive as you think. If you have money to spend in dispensary then you can afford to set up a small budget grow for yourself. It pays for itself on the first harvest.
I can take 12 of the 10watt Waveform Lighting led bulbs....that is 120watts total for 12 light bulbs. 6 of them at 2,700k and 6 of them at 6,500k....and grow circles around almost every single grow light out there. Because the Waveform Lighting leds are 97-98 CRI verified purity and clean clean full spectrum light, almost as pure as incandescence. The reason a Waveform Lighting grow light will grow plants like crazy is because the plants would get pure and clean Reds and pure clean Blues with the 2.7k and 6.5k spread in equal portions. If you want a light that is just designed to grow a small plant with more flowers (but again a smaller plant won't produce as many flowers as a bigger one).......then just use 8 of the 2.7k bulbs and 4 of the 6.5k bulbs....etc. Any led light you use that is 80 CRI or below, you might as well just grow your plants under CFL lights or something, because the plants won't get much usable spectrum at all. The sheer difference between growing a plant under ONE 2.7k Tungsten incandescent bulb and ONE 6.5k Tungsten incandescent bulb.....to a 100watt standard led grow light is astonishing. You would think the two bulb grow light had super powers or something, because it would grow circles around your led grow light.................All because of the CRI 100 rating of the incandescent bulbs, and the crappy 80 CRI rating of your dirty led light.
@@1-eyed-zo He's trying to say that he has no idea what he's talking about. CRI is irrelevant. That's why nobody cares about CMHs anymore. It's all about the amount of photons per second in PAR range.🤣

And.....the Green Sunshine Company's Electric Sky grow light was over 91CRI accuracy....................so you still have much to learn young padawan. And there will NEVER be another grow light outperform t he Electric Sky ......UNTIL you BEAT it's color rendering ACCURACY, so the PLANTS will SEE the colors they NEED in order to GROW BETTER......are you getting it yet, round eye??
So many lights, so simple. Funny no Talks about how to hang it. There are several cords but they dont work in the way they are so you have to do knots and shit. So much cable, not needed but aray2 ,logicaly.
If those Lm281 series diodes truly are 90+ CRI rating, then the light is a decent grow light, but not a great one....because: 3000k lights by themselves don't grow plants as well as 2,700k by itself. The reason is that 3000k doesn't have enough Red. That's why a 2,700k light by itself grows plants better, because it has more of the Reds. A 5000k light by itself doesn't grow plants as good as a 6500k light by itself, and it's because the 5k doesn't have enough Blues. The only reason a plant grows under 6500k so well is because of the Blues. The only reason a plant under 2,700k grows so well is because of the Reds. You have to give the plants both and in pure form WITH the other colors in the spectrum that our full spectrum Led's can provide. So first the light must be at least 90 CRI pure light. Or you might as well grow your plants under CFL lights..................anything 80 CRI and under is the same as a CFL or worse. Not a clean pure light at all, and the plant doesn't get much Usable light from it as a result. So the best grow lights (to just make the plant grow and grow with normal shape and symmetry) is one with a CRI rating of 90+ for cleaner usable light. And then it needs an even ratio of 2,700k and 6,500k leds, so that it pulls off an overall color temperature of about 4,000k Natural Daylight color. This gives the plant plenty of the 2.7k Red spectrum to grow with, and plenty of the 6.5K Blue spectrum to grow with......as well as everything in between. A separate dimmer knob having only the deep Red leds and red IR diodes is for bloom and flower enhancement. But the overall light needs to grow the plant Symmetrically like the Sun does. That way it will produce everything it can produce all in one plant. Not a plant with large leaves and a skinny stalk, or a plant with a thick stalk tiny leaves....or a plant that is squatted and bushy when in nature it's tall and lanky....etc..
Nothing informative about this review except nit-picking over the most trivial issues like 'time to set up' or cables needing 'hours to relax into shape' - talk about reporting unimportant issues!
Thanks for the feedback 👍. I think some people might want to know these things before buying a light. Many lights are plug-and-play out of the box so setup time is minimal for larger grows. But some take a while to setup so I think it is good to let people know about these kinds of things to help manage their exceptions :) The cords were also a significant point since the light bars literally hang from them. They lights were hanging crooked when I first unboxed the lights. I noticed they relaxed, which is good since most people want even lighting over their canopy.
@@Ledgrowlightsdepot all of this is explained on his own website, including the reason he chose those particular Samsung diodes (very interesting reasoning) - you might do well to read his website before commenting on items he has already educated us on. Shane knows what he's doing, we trust him.
@@Ledgrowlightsdepot Watering your plants takes more work than setting up these lights. It's just 4 screws on each light. The older model was even easier but this one is sturdier. Absolutely nothing to complain about, easy, simple, straighforward and effective. And honestly i don't understand the complaint about long cables, it's always good to have extra long cables so you don't have to use extension cords. You can roll the rest of the wire around your hand and use 2 zip-ties to keep it tight. Matter of fact, i had a Mars Hydro TSL2000 and i had so much trouble setting it up, i spent 3-4 hours and i had to do some DIY makeshift projects to keep the light stable. The total length of the cable on the Mars Hydro TSL2000 is too short, it barely reached from the tent to the wall outlet. But the worst thing was the short cable from the light fixture to the drivers, it was maybe less than 100cm, I couldn't put the drivers outside of the tent because the cable was too short. And if i used the ratchet to lower the light fixture, it would start pulling the drivers. Not to mention the light started getting hot like a toaster on maximum wattage, and it smelled like burning plastic. Temperature inside the tent went up from 20C to 30C in just 10 minutes with proper ventilation AND drivers outside barely settled, hanging on the tent like a rotten fruit... I had to return the light and waited around 3 months for a refund from Mars Hydro.. The stiffness on the Migro cables is really nothing bad, the cables are good quality and they are meant to be resistant to UVB because he also sells UVB light that needs to be hanged above the lights. Cheap cables would be damaged by the UV. And since the Migro fixture needs to be assembled, it's a smaller package and cheaper to ship, win-win for everyone.
Well.. I got mine and setting it up took 15-20min. No need for resting cables lol wtf that even means? I got older model that hangs from the cable and I got 0 worries. Really weird bashing as end of the day they are great lights.
All led lights are to expensive to the ppfd, the sunlight came *directly* thats what the leafes and flowers gear to the sun, the flowers and leaves needs the warming waves to switch in slowmition from east to the northwest light bevor the sunrising, there follow the sunrise, and led lights with optics works better like the real sunlight, but mostly all growlights havent not a full spectrum: blue to green and orange and uv-a.b.c. vor calcium metabolism and protect for bugs and milbs and uvc to desinfect/ sterilised and deep and far red,,,, mostly to less WHEN the growlight have this!!!!! And when i dimm the jelvin is going down??? No,,,, so mostly all lights are not sunlike!!!! Cheaper smd with optics make a better and very cheaper light for many people there have not enough money to get a expensive light, and 100+ degree is sending light to the walls,,, so thats defently not good, all the light its better when its came with - -40 degree, thats the best when the dimmable lights to get dimming, the penetration is the key to have NOT to long internodes!!!!! Hope my schoolenglish was ok enough to understand me, im not shure🤷!!!! Wish you all best!!!! Greedings from the german wrongdog
>Bullsheit- cause Plants Don't use Infra Red, which makes the "warm" Sunlight. Best "Penetrating" Photons are the Green Photons, which are plenty in Full Spectrum Lights. Educate yourself and stop telling Fairy Tales.
Sorry dirk s. for my terrible german schoolenglisch: i mean all led grow lights have not real sunspectrum, and i know, green is in the led lights but defently NOT enough like real sun, and ir is pure warming and plants needs all warming-waves from the sun in the same intensity to follow to the sunrise, so defently have all led lights to less: green, orange, deep red, far red, and all uv's, the natur is mostly pure green on this planet, jes, you right, thats from the high green-sun"output" not dark-rusty-orange/purple/black-leaves (cannabis) that leafecolours was a genetic-manipulation from the first led lights tests in 1995+ from the earlyst led farming institutes!!!

@@wow-dg2xt Hi, gerne antworte ich auch auf Deutsch. Licht wurde in etlichen Spektren und Kombinationen mit deren Auswirkungen auf den Pflanzenwuchs getestet. Moderne Weiße LEDs haben eine Tageslichtspektrum, alle Farben sind enthalten, aber mehr Blau und Rot als z.B im Sonnenlicht und richtig z.B weniger Cyan und Grün. Allerdings haben Rote und Blaue Photonen die meiste Energie und werden von der Pflanze hauptsächlich zur Photosynthese genutzt, die anderen Farben spielen dabei eine kleinere Rolle. Infra Rot interessiert die meisten Pflanzen nicht und UVA hat nur bei wenigen Pflanzen z.B auf Salat ein wenig vergrößerten Effekt, aber auf die meisten Pflanzen keine Auswirkungen auf das Wachstum. Mein Tip: Dr Bugbee Videos anzuschauen, er hat an einer Universität in Utah sehr viele Versuche dazu gemacht.
Versuche, werden immer auch manipuliert in die öffentlichkeit getragen das sollte man schon wissen in solchen zeiten denn es geht ja der elitären wissenschaftsmafi nur darum das komplette mögliche weltwissen aus natürlichen rohstoffen zu generieren und alle möglichen produkte herzustellen die wieder weiteres wissen hervorbringen können, daher schaffen die ein durcheinander um erstmal an müllprodukten die der bürger kauft alles zu verdienen, die könnten auch gleich eine perfekte sonnenlicht-funzel bauen, ist ja aber nicht gewollt weil jede wellenlänge einen unterschiedlichen genetischen vorgang steuert völlig egal wie groß der jetzt sein mag denn das ist ja abhängig von der genetik, somit.... um pflanzen in ihrer genetik zu erhalten braucht es volle 100% sonnenlicht in 99+ intensität, ausserdem werden die bestimmte farben absichtlich raus gelassen weil die drachenpflanze so bestimmte wirkstoffe nicht produzieren kann, ist ne mafiamasche um zu täuschen genauso wie in astrokanälen immer erzählt wird das universum expandiere. Wir bekommen immer auch lügen vorgesetzt und nur so können die obersten bestimmte intelligenzen der menschen heraussehen, ist nur deren abgleich mit ihrem reinsten wahrheitswissen/ursprungswissen, genauso ist die bibel geschrieben mit verdrehungen und verschleierungen bespickt, solche psychomacken gibts seit anbeginn jeder intelligenz!!! Und weil du schreibst manche wellenlängen braucht eine pflanze nicht, du bist brutal falschdenkend,,,, wenn es um das ewige leben geht, braucht eine pflanze gerade das gegenteilige spectrum dessen was als intensiv auf die pflanzengenetik wirkt, ich habe herausgefunden das bestimmte schwache wellen eine pflanze in ihrem altern fast stoppen können, pflanzen können womöglich ewig leben ohne weiter zu wachsen, hab ich selber vor vielen jahren schon getestet!!! Wir sind alle nur zellen und je weniger input wir zu dem bekommen was uns altern lässt umso länger leben wir bis zum genetisch möglichen höchstalter, denn das leben ist der sterbevorgang, weil das lebewesen genetisch über die umwelteinflüsse erkennt das diese zu schlecht sind und es sterben wird produziert es erst dann samen wenn die umweltbedingungen das harren nicht mehr ermöglichen, ist bei allen lebewesen so, daher produziert der mann sperma ( er spührt unterbewusst immer die schädigenden unweltbedingungen) und die frauen spühren es erst später zb. bei gefahr, daher wenn frauen beim harten sex gewürgt werden möchten: **ACHTUNG** ist es gut möglich das sie schwanger werden wollen, denn negativstress fördert den eisprung!!!

But some take a while to setup so I think it is good to let people know about these kinds of things to help manage their exceptions :) The cords were also a significant point since the light bars literally hang from them. They lights were hanging crooked when I first unboxed the lights. I noticed they relaxed, which is good since most people want even lighting over their canopy.
@@Ledgrowlightsdepot all of this is explained on his own website, including the reason he chose those particular Samsung diodes (very interesting reasoning) - you might do well to read his website before commenting on items he has already educated us on. Shane knows what he's doing, we trust him.
@@Ledgrowlightsdepot Watering your plants takes more work than setting up these lights. It's just 4 screws on each light. The older model was even easier but this one is sturdier. Absolutely nothing to complain about, easy, simple, straighforward and effective.
And honestly i don't understand the complaint about long cables, it's always good to have extra long cables so you don't have to use extension cords. You can roll the rest of the wire around your hand and use 2 zip-ties to keep it tight.
Matter of fact, i had a Mars Hydro TSL2000 and i had so much trouble setting it up, i spent 3-4 hours and i had to do some DIY makeshift projects to keep the light stable. The total length of the cable on the Mars Hydro TSL2000 is too short, it barely reached from the tent to the wall outlet. But the worst thing was the short cable from the light fixture to the drivers, it was maybe less than 100cm, I couldn't put the drivers outside of the tent because the cable was too short. And if i used the ratchet to lower the light fixture, it would start pulling the drivers. Not to mention the light started getting hot like a toaster on maximum wattage, and it smelled like burning plastic. Temperature inside the tent went up from 20C to 30C in just 10 minutes with proper ventilation AND drivers outside barely settled, hanging on the tent like a rotten fruit... I had to return the light and waited around 3 months for a refund from Mars Hydro..
The stiffness on the Migro cables is really nothing bad, the cables are good quality and they are meant to be resistant to UVB because he also sells UVB light that needs to be hanged above the lights. Cheap cables would be damaged by the UV.
And since the Migro fixture needs to be assembled, it's a smaller package and cheaper to ship, win-win for everyone.
Well.. I got mine and setting it up took 15-20min. No need for resting cables lol wtf that even means? I got older model that hangs from the cable and I got 0 worries. Really weird bashing as end of the day they are great lights.
@@steveod1the only reason he chose those Samsung lm281b diodes is because they are a lot cheaper to buy thats all lol
British built .No Chinese cr.p like mars hydro cr.p.
It's made in china soz
"Ch. i na"
Wasn't Aware Dublin Was In Ireland?
I think they're too expensive myself
All led lights are to expensive to the ppfd, the sunlight came *directly* thats what the leafes and flowers gear to the sun, the flowers and leaves needs the warming waves to switch in slowmition from east to the northwest light bevor the sunrising, there follow the sunrise, and led lights with optics works better like the real sunlight, but mostly all growlights havent not a full spectrum: blue to green and orange and uv-a.b.c. vor calcium metabolism and protect for bugs and milbs and uvc to desinfect/ sterilised and deep and far red,,,, mostly to less WHEN the growlight have this!!!!! And when i dimm the jelvin is going down??? No,,,, so mostly all lights are not sunlike!!!! Cheaper smd with optics make a better and very cheaper light for many people there have not enough money to get a expensive light, and 100+ degree is sending light to the walls,,, so thats defently not good, all the light its better when its came with - -40 degree, thats the best when the dimmable lights to get dimming, the penetration is the key to have NOT to long internodes!!!!! Hope my schoolenglish was ok enough to understand me, im not shure🤷!!!! Wish you all best!!!! Greedings from the german wrongdog
>Bullsheit- cause Plants Don't use Infra Red, which makes the "warm" Sunlight. Best "Penetrating" Photons are the Green Photons, which are plenty in Full Spectrum Lights. Educate yourself and stop telling Fairy Tales.
Sorry dirk s. for my terrible german schoolenglisch: i mean all led grow lights have not real sunspectrum, and i know, green is in the led lights but defently NOT enough like real sun, and ir is pure warming and plants needs all warming-waves from the sun in the same intensity to follow to the sunrise, so defently have all led lights to less: green, orange, deep red, far red, and all uv's, the natur is mostly pure green on this planet, jes, you right, thats from the high green-sun"output" not dark-rusty-orange/purple/black-leaves (cannabis) that leafecolours was a genetic-manipulation from the first led lights tests in 1995+ from the earlyst led farming institutes!!! Greedings
Im educate, but mi english is to terrible for you, whats wrong in my first post? You can translate to german!!!
@@wow-dg2xt Hi, gerne antworte ich auch auf Deutsch. Licht wurde in etlichen Spektren und Kombinationen mit deren Auswirkungen auf den Pflanzenwuchs getestet. Moderne Weiße LEDs haben eine Tageslichtspektrum, alle Farben sind enthalten, aber mehr Blau und Rot als z.B im Sonnenlicht und richtig z.B weniger Cyan und Grün. Allerdings haben Rote und Blaue Photonen die meiste Energie und werden von der Pflanze hauptsächlich zur Photosynthese genutzt, die anderen Farben spielen dabei eine kleinere Rolle. Infra Rot interessiert die meisten Pflanzen nicht und UVA hat nur bei wenigen Pflanzen z.B auf Salat ein wenig vergrößerten Effekt, aber auf die meisten Pflanzen keine Auswirkungen auf das Wachstum.
Mein Tip: Dr Bugbee Videos anzuschauen, er hat an einer Universität in Utah sehr viele Versuche dazu gemacht.
Versuche, werden immer auch manipuliert in die öffentlichkeit getragen das sollte man schon wissen in solchen zeiten denn es geht ja der elitären wissenschaftsmafi nur darum das komplette mögliche weltwissen aus natürlichen rohstoffen zu generieren und alle möglichen produkte herzustellen die wieder weiteres wissen hervorbringen können, daher schaffen die ein durcheinander um erstmal an müllprodukten die der bürger kauft alles zu verdienen, die könnten auch gleich eine perfekte sonnenlicht-funzel bauen, ist ja aber nicht gewollt weil jede wellenlänge einen unterschiedlichen genetischen vorgang steuert völlig egal wie groß der jetzt sein mag denn das ist ja abhängig von der genetik, somit.... um pflanzen in ihrer genetik zu erhalten braucht es volle 100% sonnenlicht in 99+ intensität, ausserdem werden die bestimmte farben absichtlich raus gelassen weil die drachenpflanze so bestimmte wirkstoffe nicht produzieren kann, ist ne mafiamasche um zu täuschen genauso wie in astrokanälen immer erzählt wird das universum expandiere. Wir bekommen immer auch lügen vorgesetzt und nur so können die obersten bestimmte intelligenzen der menschen heraussehen, ist nur deren abgleich mit ihrem reinsten wahrheitswissen/ursprungswissen, genauso ist die bibel geschrieben mit verdrehungen und verschleierungen bespickt, solche psychomacken gibts seit anbeginn jeder intelligenz!!! Und weil du schreibst manche wellenlängen braucht eine pflanze nicht, du bist brutal falschdenkend,,,, wenn es um das ewige leben geht, braucht eine pflanze gerade das gegenteilige spectrum dessen was als intensiv auf die pflanzengenetik wirkt, ich habe herausgefunden das bestimmte schwache wellen eine pflanze in ihrem altern fast stoppen können, pflanzen können womöglich ewig leben ohne weiter zu wachsen, hab ich selber vor vielen jahren schon getestet!!! Wir sind alle nur zellen und je weniger input wir zu dem bekommen was uns altern lässt umso länger leben wir bis zum genetisch möglichen höchstalter, denn das leben ist der sterbevorgang, weil das lebewesen genetisch über die umwelteinflüsse erkennt das diese zu schlecht sind und es sterben wird produziert es erst dann samen wenn die umweltbedingungen das harren nicht mehr ermöglichen, ist bei allen lebewesen so, daher produziert der mann sperma ( er spührt unterbewusst immer die schädigenden unweltbedingungen) und die frauen spühren es erst später zb. bei gefahr, daher wenn frauen beim harten sex gewürgt werden möchten: **ACHTUNG** ist es gut möglich das sie schwanger werden wollen, denn negativstress fördert den eisprung!!!
