  • The Medic Grow Smart 8 is a great light at a phenomenal price. It is a large foldable grow light with 8 LED bars and 760 watts of power. It is designed for home growers, with an onboard display, timer, dimmer, and bloom switch!
    Medic Grow Lights are among the best deals in horticultural lighting! They are offering quality fixtures at prices that nobody else can match. Plus we have a 10% discount code! Use code CCFC on medicgrow.com/
    I run the Smart 8 through 9 different PAR and ePAR tests. It can fill a 5x5 space with excellent density light. Or provide ultra-high-density light in a 4x4 space for growers with supplemental carbon dioxide. I also test it in a 4x4 at 60% and 80% power for growers without supplemental CO2. You will see why it is the most popular Medic Grow Light for Home Growers!

      Yeah the part is great the lights really works really nice until less than the year started flickering. Now I have a hard time getting a warranty they want $200 for me for a deposit for a new light. I purchased you from a distributor here locally and that's what he wants from him my vendor also stated that he's had multiple incidents what this brand he is going to stop carrying them

      After owning them for less than a year one of them started flickering really bad the warranty process really sucks they want to get $200 from you to send out a new one and it's already been 3 weeks since I asked for it I requested a replacement has been under a year so it should be in the full replacement no warranty repairs and really giving a hard time about the warranties . I thought I found me an answer for my girl room now I'm on the hunt for another light brand that's reliable I hope that's helps before you purchase and if you did I hope they go good for you

    hey Mister Coco, in your database the Mars hydro FC-E 3000 has about 10% better efficiency than the more expensive FC-3000. Doesnt really make sense to me. Are you sure these results are right?

    • @DrMJCoco
      @DrMJCoco  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it is a consistent pattern. The FC and FCE versions perform very similarly. I have tested both versions of the 3000, 6500, and 8000. I discuss this and my thoughts about why in the recent FCE-3000 video. Grower Love
