1000 watt Grow Light

A Giant 3’ Reflector w/Six Wings delivers More Light for Higher Growth

This next generation hood clearly out classes the light wasting batwing "lights". Why settle for less than the most efficient reflector you can get?

VIRGIN Light:Don‘t get stuck with a light that's been junked once before! Why buy something that costs more to fix than what you paid?

Our Light Features:

Giant 3’ Reflector just for Indoor Use. It measures 3 feet long! This is the secret: The larger reflector, the easier it is to capture light that would be wasted lighting up your ceilings and walls , and redirect this otherwise wasted light down on your plants. The reflector has 4 extra wings to capture and redirect the light shed off the ends of the light bulb. It offers extraordinary high optical efficiency.

Don't get stuck with something that costs more to fix than what you paid!

We are not taking used, scraped lights out of a factory, cleaning them and calling them “refurbished”. With the exception of a repainted ballast enclosure, you are getting a brand new fixture which includes:

GIANT REFLECTOR: 3 Foot Long! Measures 3'x1.5' x .5'. The reflector is made of lighting grade anodized high reflectivity aluminum - not a laminated product that can peal. Total reflectivity is 95%. It is so shiny that you can see your reflection, just like a mirror. This is what the real lighting grade specular aluminum looks like. Others just use dull sheet aluminum. Be careful: without treatment, aluminum is not very reflective- as low as 30%. Look at the other reflectors on ebay, see if you think they are as bright!

New Ballast & Capacitor. All electrical components are new, not half worn out.

New Socket. Not something used pulled out of the scrap heap. So the socket is sure to be good.

Remote Mounting Hardware. The giant reflector hangs from chain bails. An approximate 8’ power supply cord connects the ballast enclosure to the reflector. There are two reasons to use a remotely mounted ballast: (1) It’s easier to hang a lightweight reflector . (2) The heat of the lamp is kept away from the ballast and capacitor. The ballast enclosure and reflector can be stored separately. Reusable quick connectors make disassembly a snap.

NEW Cast Aluminum Enclosure(not pictured above) See picture below instead. This fixture has been recently upgraded with new cast heat sink with cooling fins.

Prewired 120 volt Power Cord. Cord length is approximately 6’. This can be rewired for 208, 240, or 277 volt. The ballast cord is approximately 10'.

Quality Workmanship. There are no sharp edges to cut your self on. The edges are neatly folded over. The reflector does come with a protective quick release film. Stiff structural aluminum is used to support the hangers and socket. Two chain bails are provided to hang the reflector by. The ballast is not Chinese.

We didn't just slap a light bulb under a sheet of corrugated aluminum. With pencil and paper, we figured out how light actually bounces to construct the best reflector for you. Sure, it's more work and takes craftsmanship to build. But the result is an unusually strong, lightweight optics that does not trap light like a shoebox light, or waste it like a batwing.

Compare this to the “batwing” or “shoebox” lights that some people hawk and you will see that this reflector gives you usually 50% or more light for the money:

Batwings are for Bats!, not Plants

Look at the grow "lights" that are being cobbled together and sold here. Most of them have open ends. Light flies out the ends of these “batwings”
and hits your walls. What a waste! Do you want to light up your room or do you need to feed your plants with light?

The geometric fact is that half of the light from a bulb comes off the end, and half comes off the sides. That’s why our reflector has additional wings to redirect horizontal light down.

On the other hand, light ricochets off of a batwing reflector and out the open ends and onto your walls. What a waste!

Shoeboxs are for Shoes!

Other common grow lights have a hood, but not a large complete multi-sided reflector like ours has. You can’t throw a light bulb in a little box and hope that much light will get out. If you put a reflector with open ends in a the box, light gets trapped in internal reflections, bouncing back and forth between the ends of the box or the ends and the reflector or the reflector with it's self. The optical efficiency of these "shoe box" lights is so poor that hardly anyone in the lighting industry publishes the numbers. Typically only 40 to 60% of the light generated by the arc gets out of the fixture. You are simply not getting the light you are paying for.
