Hi, Chronic
Thanks for showing interest on us, purple light are our old version. In 2019, we released two series lights with white color, mars sp and mars ts, mars ts1000 and mars sp 250 is the most popular ones, we’ve got lots of feedback from our customers on them. Pls see the some pictures here.
Mars TS1000’s actual power is 150w (+/- 5%), every electric appliance work in a flexible power range,+/- 5 is normal for an electrical appliance.
My opinion is like most Chinese grow light manufacturers the advertised specs are shady and misleading BUT to be fair Mars Hydro make the “best” quality product out of all of them. Before people start buying their products I suggest you check various “other” forums for reviews on each of their products. Obviously avoid Amazon reviews as they can’t be trusted. Doing a little homework could well save your bank balance.
I’ll just stick to my solstrips 
Hi, Ole
Thanks for asking, if this is your first trying mars hydro products, we want to recommend our
Mars TSW2000
White light, very bright, dimmable driver, it can cover 3ft5ft for growth, and 2ft4ft for flower.
That could take awhile 
Mine grow up around an hps but I’m pushing air and have a turbo fan on the floor pointing up at the lite.
I need some other kind of light in my life.
I don’t believe there’s that many members, what 300 is the last I heard
Besides the hps/mh is great for the winters where I’m at.
Be awful damn tuff to get rid of and change.
No I’m not a light salesman.
Satisfied with my mars hydro.

Thats why the magic number 1000 was used 
Imagine that, LoL
Awright…
Yeah imagine that…
Lol, way more than that.
Of course there are more active members than that 
But maybe you mean our core group of daily visitors

And actually topic views are counted as 1 view once per day per (user or ip) … 
so in few days we are there…
I have three mars hydro lights.
For anyone starting out they can do they job well at a cheap price.
Last grow I run my 192 reflector and a mehzhi 1200 as the suited my space better than combining my other lights.
The mehzi is same shell as same model of mars it represents.
I grow hybrids and would side with more sativa if I was to choose a slide from 50-50.
I have a choice.
I have been happy with there lights and if you still live with the risk of confiscation there is a place for these.
At the same time as I where in market for buying new lights, the difference between both the mars lights and the mehzi, was a shrewd move.
But I live uk and you wheigh up import tax and beady eyes. I have to also say I prefer the mehzi spectrum more blue better for my preference. And I can actually see a little what I’m doing.
I have had these lights for a few years with no problems although I have not been running continuesly. And I changed everything about the way I was growing at the same time location, medium, nutes and so on.
So far both makes have provided reasonabley priced alternative.
But I bought on a budget and older models served a purpose. I have posted photos on other sites. With work done with them and collaborations between the two makes. But have never got chance to try other lights.
Would much more prefer a spider x but good budget lights so far but hate blurple for working with.
Not sure about other factors so not an endorsement as such.
But any grows on the web you see from me have been grown with these the other firm or both.
I never posted any of my Hp’s grows or my outdoor grows so take from it what you will ps most grows have been started under t5s and cfls
Yes if your waiting for 1000 posts it’s gonna be a while unless the regulars mass post this topic we might be lucky by xmas if it doesn’t get lost between now and then !
Been wanting to try led but dunno if I’d spend the money on Chinese products
