Power your indoor grow with the Mars Hydro FC-E8000 800W LED delivering full-spectrum intensity, detachable driver cooling, and BridgeLux-powered efficiency.

Boost your indoor grow with smart dimming, uniform full spectrum lighting, and energy savings for 4'x4' and 5'x5' spaces.

The Mars Hydro FC-E8000 is a powerhouse for indoor growers who need high efficiency and serious yield. Powered by USA-made BridgeLux diodes, this 800W fixture cranks out up to 2240 µmol/s with a PPE of 2.8 µmol/J—perfect for 5'x5' veg and 4'x4' flower spaces. Designed for both home growers and vertical farms, it delivers uniform lighting across the canopy with adjustable dimming and daisy chain control for up to 30 fixtures.

This isn’t just about light—it’s about smart growing. The FC-E8000 features an IP65 waterproof rating, a detachable power supply for cooler runs, and slim-profile bars with an aluminum heatsink that slashes heat and energy use by up to 50% compared to HID. Whether you're running soil or hydro setups, this full-spectrum grow light drives maximum photosynthesis and higher yields in every grow cycle.

Is the Mars Hydro FC-E8000 energy-efficient?

Rated at 2.8 µmol/J, the FC-E8000 beats HID fixtures running 1.3–1.7 µmol/J. That’s more usable light and bigger yields per watt, cutting your energy costs and boosting plant growth from seedling to harvest.

FAQs

How many watts do I need for my grow space?

The wattage depends on the size of your grow tent or room. A general guideline is 30-50 watts per square foot for high-light plants like cannabis. For example, a 2x2 ft area may need 100-200W, while a 4x4 ft area may require 400-600W for optimal coverage.

What is the difference between full-spectrum and red/blue LED grow lights?

Full-spectrum LED lights mimic natural sunlight, providing a balanced mix of blue (for vegetative growth) and red (for flowering and fruiting) light. Red/blue LED lights focus on specific wavelengths but may not support plants as effectively as full-spectrum lights.
