Viparspectra VS Advanced Platinum 600W LED GROW LIGHT

LED grow lights have only hit the market around a decade ago, and with it came great benefits: higher yields at a lower price for indoor growers.

Plants do not utilise much white light and some of the other spectrums produced by conventional lighting such as HPS (High Pressure Sodium). In fact plants only use around 30% of the light produced by conventional lighting. Just as conventional lighting has a reduced effect on plant growth so also do traditional methods of measuring light such as LUX becoming insufficient for measuring LED Light. Led Light has a totally different set of rules, the only recognised and effective way to measure LED light is to use the method called PAR or (Photosynthetically Active Radiation). PAR is the term use to describe the wavelengths needed by the plant to feed and grow. The light emitted from our LED light units are close to 100% efficiently utilised. By properly utilising the specific forms of light needed by the plants they are able to fully utilise the energy available, uninhibiting the plants and opening them up to their full potential.

Viparspectra Reflector Series 600W LED Grow Light

VIPARSPECTRA PAR600 LED Grow Light is scientifically engineered to keep the balance of the PAR/Lumen output and coverage.

The secret to the VIPARSPECTRA LED grow light success is the optimal full spectrum which provides plants Veg and Flower all stages with everything they desire in the natural sunlight.

Compares to traditional 400 watt HPS/MH while consuming only 274 watts! Perfect for a 3x3’ vegetative coverage at 34” while 2.5x2.5’ flowering coverage at 26”.

Upgraded 3.2” front-fans for the first time plus big aluminum cooling heat sinks (0.8” height) are easy for heat dissipation quietly.

Viparspectra Reflector Series 600W Specifications And Features

Viparspectra is a scientifically engineered light, developed after years of experimentation by professional indoor growers.

The Viparspectra is engineered to keep the balance of the PAR/Lumen Output and coverage, so that every single plant gets the same density of light. An even amount of light is distributed along the length of the LED, allowing your marijuana to receive ample light to grow into its full size. Because the light spreads evenly, it increases the quality of the flowers, as they grow larger and more dense with resin.

You might think that being a 600W LED, the Viparspectra consumes a lot of power that would result in larger electricity bills, but the Viparspectra 600W consumes nearly 70% less energy than your HPS/HID or even fluorescent lights.

The Viparspectra 600W LED consumes only 276 watts of the actual wattage. You read that right. The Viparspectra does not use 600W, but only 276 watts.

The Viparspectra 600W LED works efficiently with aluminum cooling sinks and high-speed cooling fans for easy heat dissipation. You can use the LED for long hours without worrying about your grow room getting overly warm. As with most set ups, you might still consider external exhaust fans, to help rotate the heat in and out of your grow room more easily.

The Viparspectra 600W has two different switches, one for Veg and one for Bloom. You can use either one depending on the growing stage of your cannabis. Turning on both switches will give you the maximum intensity of the LED.

What About The Coverage Area?

The more powerful the light, the more intense and dense the light. LEDs have a great coverage area.
The Viparspectra 600W is perfect for a 3’x3’ growing area, at 24″ height. You can modulate the height according to your needs, but it is recommended to keep the height of your grow light between 18-24″ for the maximum intensity of light.
The Viparspectra 600W LED supports an angle of 90 degrees. The larger angle allows for more coverage.
120 High-Intensity 5Watt Bridgelux/Epileds LED Chips work to power the Viparspectra. The frequency of the light is 50-60Hz. The lifespan of the LED as claimed by the manufacturer is 100,000+ hours, which is one main reason for using the Viparspectra LED grow light.

What are the types of equipment included in the package?
You will receive one Reflector 600W, one hanging kit, and one 6ft power cord. All of these are necessary for a functioning of the grow light. The hanging kit includes everything you’ll need to hang the light. As shown in the first image, the light is suspended from four sturdy lanyards, one for each corner. This package comes with a 3-year warranty along with 30-day return back policy.
LED grow lights are more expensive than conventional lamps, because LED lights are highly energy efficient and simulate the role of the sunlight in the grow room. LED lights generate less heat than traditional HID/HPS lamps.


But there must be a downside — what are the negatives with a light like this? No LED is perfect, but it is for every individual user to decide whether the cons will affect their growing goals.

The Viparspectra Reflector 600W is not waterproof. Secondly, you shall have to monitor the growth your plants at each stage. The 120 High-Intensity 5Watt Bridgelux/Epileds LED Chips cannot monitor your plants for you.

Advanced Platinum P600 LED Grow Light

Platinum LED lights have the HIGHEST PAR/LUMEN OUTPUT PER WATT of any LED grow light! 2x-3x the intensity of any other lights!

SUPERIOR 12-band full spectrum from the depths of UV to the heights of IR - The most complete and efficient spectral output available
Selectable VEG/FLOWER switches with 4x high speed whisper quiet fans plus ALL NEW upgraded aluminum cooling heat sinks

800w HPS replacement with 6ft x 4ft coverage at 18" height PERFECT for large applications or using multiple units for even coverage in commercial application
The Platinum LED P600 is an LED grow light you purchase when you’re more concerned about quality and output compared to cost. A cheap LED grow light just won’t produce the required 30-40 moles of light per day for your cannabis plant.

If you’re growing out of an entry level grow light or simply looking for a good quality one, the Advanced Platinum P600 is the place to look.
By the end of this review you’ll feel comfortable knowing whether to obtain an Advanced Platinum P600 Full Spectrum LED Grow Light.

I’ll review the Platinum LED brand, the P600’s design, light spectrum, coverage ability, cooling ability, and warranty. I’ll also go over general grower sentiment about the Advanced Platinum P600, and make a few comparisons to competitor products so you’ll have an idea of how it stacks up to similar grow lights.

Advanced Platinum P600 Coverage Area:
Prepare to be truly impressed because the Advanced Platinum P600’s level of coverage is simply unseen in comparable LED grow lights. The P600 covers an incredible 6’ X 3.75’ during vegetation and 5’ X 2-2.5’ during flowering.
Massive coverage is the primary reason for it being one of the best LED grow lights. Other grow light manufacturers just can’t provide this much coverage with this level of intensity to your plants.

Advanced Platinum P600’s Full Light Spectrum:
The Advanced Platinum LED P600 is a modern example of complete artificial light equivalent to real sunlight. This P600 LED grow light by advanced platinum generates a complete 12 band spectrum along with infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) bands.

The finely tuned spectrum will help your cannabis plants grow regardless of what phase of growth they’re in. It boosts cell formation and leaf building in your marijuana plants which results in high quality resinous yields in return.

Take a look at the video in the next section to see the light spectrum measurement right after the gentleman measures the PPFD output.

Advanced Platinum P600 Power Efficiency:
The Advanced Platinum P600 will draw 368 watts during full operation, and 184 watts during vegetation mode. We like to mention the importance of power consumption when reveiwing grow lights.
In this case you may be tempted to point out other 600 watt LED grow lights that claim to consume less. And while you’d be right, you simply won’t be receiving the PPFD reading or coverage area with those other 600 watt grow lights. Using a bit more energy is worth it with this light.
This grow light by Advanced Platinum delivers light and efficiency equivalent to an 800W HPS grow light.
If you’re still using a metal halide or high pressure sodium grow light, you still aren’t in the same league as the P600. It’s truly a unique valuable 600 watt LED grow light.
All these strengths of the Platinum LED P600 are not just appraisals by the manufacturer, but these are the real facts gathered using scientific test methods.
