2)A well-designed Power supply provide enough power while avoiding heat issue and saving energy. Well-known drivers such as Mean Well, MOSO, ect.

2. Core Data

1)Diode quantity

when explaining diode quantity, the concept of overdrive comes into play.
Generally speaking, when the wattage of the whole light is determined, the heat and current is determined, while the current running in a single led depends on the diode quantity.

The one with more diodes has lower current to run each diode, which avoids overdrive and overheating to make diodes have longer service life.

Diode quantity should be seen on manufacturers’ official sites. You can find them and compare them on yourselves.

2)PPFD Design

Most grow lights on the market have a high level of average PPFD, or PPE,and Most of them have high PPFD values in the middle and very low values around. 

Plants in the middle are at risk of being burnt; But if you hang it higher to avoide burns, you lose PPFs.
