It is easy to get lost in choosing LEDs nowadays in such a sea of options, but with certification filter you'll find the right one. Let this post be your first guide!
Whether you are looking to match PPF or wattage, or spectrum with an LED design, expand vertically, or simply improve crop quality and environmental control, there is an LED system out there that can fit any crop or goal. It takes a long period to find the accurate spectrum to match different kinds of crops.
When talking about PPF and wattage or PPFD, people focus on different results. Warranty and safety has become the basic product requirement, so based on LED popularizing rate, it challenges the engineers or even growers to get higher lighting efficiency.
ETL is the essential certification to get in DLC listed. To avoid poor quality LEDs and choose a well-established manufacturer for your plants. The easiest way to weed out low-quality LEDs is to decide products listed on the DLC Qualified Products List (QPL), which have been reviewed to verify that their output meets efficiency requirements and manufacturers’ claims for efficiency.
The DLC QPL is what utility companies use when determining which products are eligible for rebates – and you should, too! All fixtures on the QPL have efficiencies of ≥1.9 μmol/J, warranties of five(5) years or more and safety certifications as ETL for North America, CE for other regions, etc.
