This upgrade should be considered mandatory rather than optional. Fluorescent lighting just cannot come close to the illumination that these LED’s are capable of.

The new LEDs are much more suited to our rice plants. The plants are responding well and flowered within weeks - something we were not able to achieve previously with the chamber.

Save energy and minimize the chance of interruption to your research by installing a PGR15/E15/BDR16 LED lighting kit. Kits come complete with do-it-yourself instructions so that your facilities staff can install them quickly and easily.
Why replace my fluorescent lamps?
Fluorescent lamps such as T5, T8 and T12 have been the standard for many years and have been used in tens of thousands of plant growth chambers around the world. However, fluorescent lighting is trending towards obsolescence and replacement lights are increasingly difficult to source economically. Over time, the light intensity of aging fluorescent lamps will also naturally decline and chambers that have been in use for prolonged periods may no longer be reaching desired light intensities – compromising your research.
Why switch to LEDs?
Up to 80% energy savings on lights
Increased lighting intensity
Space saving design increases available growth height for your plants
No need to hire specialized trades outside of your existing facilities management department
Take advantage of energy rebate programs in your area
Peace of mind knowing you have an OEM approved solution with warranty
And more...
LED Spectrum
Purpose built for the PGR15/E15 and BDR16, energy saving LEDs are ideal for research requiring an all-purpose broad white spectrum:
Energy Savings
Based on operating a simple 16-hour lights on/8-hour lights off cycle and average energy costs of $0.15 per kWh, you can save approximately $4,500 per year in lighting energy costs, depending on lighting type.
