1. Einleitung
The VIPARSPECTRA TC1200 LED Grow Light is engineered for optimal indoor plant cultivation. It features a built-in timer, efficient 12-band full spectrum, and individually dimmable Veg and Bloom channels, all integrated into a reflector design for balanced light distribution.
2. Sicherheitshinweise
- Augenschutz: The light is extremely bright. Do not look directly at the LED bulbs when the light is operating to prevent eye strain or damage.
- Nur zur Verwendung im Innenbereich: Dieses Produkt ist für den Innenbereich bestimmt und nicht wasserdicht. Vermeiden Sie den Kontakt mit Wasser und hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit.
- No External Ballast Required: The unit operates without the need for an additional ballast.
- Infrarot-LEDs (IR-LEDs): This light includes IR LEDs (730nm) which may appear dim or invisible to the naked eye. These are functional and not faulty LEDs.
- Timer-Funktionalität: The built-in timer controls both the Veg and Bloom channels simultaneously. It is not possible to turn the Veg and Bloom channels on or off independently using the timer.
