Sorry, there is a time difference here, so the customer service team probably hasn't had time to handle it yet.

You can send me a pm with your order number and email address, and I will ask customer service to contact you ASAP!

Is an extension that goes between the FCE-4800 and the driver available, say around 1.5 to 2 meters? My driver is remote mounted near the controller in the next room, and the tent is further away.

To add the UV and IR light bars, is an 8 way power cord needed, or do the UV and IR get separate power supplies?

When I started using forced filtered air to feed the tent, instead of suction through the little screens they provide near the floor, my spider mite problems went away. Haven’t had to spray since.

The water when I make butter is a lot cleaner, because the tent air is cleaner.

Hello there,
1. FC-E 4800 does not have an extension cord
2. Each pair of fill lights comes with a power cord

🔥 Exciting news 🔥

New SP 3000 takes your gardening to the next level‼

What's new: 👇
✅ Enhanced waterproof
✅ Higher light penetration
✅ More application scenarios

Let's grow together! 💧

View more ➡ https://www.mars-hydro.com/new-sp-3000-300w-greenhouse-led-grow-light

So I'll bite. This 'new' light is $80 cheaper than the 'current' (non-'greenhouse') offering and both this and the old version with the Meanwell driver have given me reasonable voltage shocks from passing damp fingers close to the LED side of the board. This has also been *widely* reported on the SP-150. Is the waterproofing feature to prevent customers getting electric shocks?

If it's higher light penetration and same wattage but using Bridgelux instead of Samsung LM301 diodes, is it less efficient than the older model for indoor grows?

I had been looking at purchasing a FC-4000 EVO SMART LED but being reminded of the shocks and with the lack of LM301H EVO Mint Green diodes on the new lights I'm struggling to justify remaining a Mars customer, especially given the new offerings from Mammoth at fairly comparable prices.
