LED Bar FAQs
In terms of grow lights, an LED bar is the part of a fixture that actually lights up. It is usually a large metallic strip containing a row of diodes that will emit light when an electrical current passes through.
LED light bars are perfect for indoor growing because they offer ample light intensity and distribution. Unlike traditional bulbs, they can deliver even coverage to all of your plants. Additionally, LED bars are highly durable and can last for 50,000 hours or more before needing to be replaced.
Contrary to common belief, LED bars do not contain individual light bulbs. Instead, they use rows of diodes that light up when the fixture is on. Though these diodes are designed to last for thousands of hours of use, they will eventually go out. Since there are no light bulbs to change, growers will need to invest in a new LED bar once the diodes begin to fade.
Though LED light bars are built to withstand years of use, they will wear out over time and need to be replaced after a few years. Here are some common signs that you need a new LED light bar:
Flickering or dimming
Uneven light distribution
Lights not turning on
Varying brightness levels
If you are running into any of these issues, it may be time to invest in a new LED bar. However, be sure to check for other potential causes such as poor electrical connections, improper installation, or a worn-out driver box.
