The Viparspectra P2000 is an excellent small grow light for the money. The Viparspectra P series are a very nice design, great build quality, good efficiency and packed with lots of features such as on board dimming and coated LEDs for protection from dust and moisture.

Overview
The Viparspectra have moved on from making ‘blurple’ LED grow lights with this new P series. It is a very welcome change and I am happy to see no more of the noisy box fan LEDs emitting purple light. The Viparspectra P2000 is a 200watt LED grow light suitable for a 4ft x 2ft (120cm x 60cm) space. It has all the features you would want including:
High Efficiency
High quality LED driver by SOSEN
Full spectrum (grow from seed to harvest)
LEDs protected with a silicone coating
On board dimming from 5% to 100% output
Recommended Coverage: 4ft x 2ft (1.2m x 0.6m)
At 200 watts the P2000 is specified for a 4ft x 2ft or 1.2m x 0.6m grow area.
Features
The fixture is very high quality in construction, easy to setup and hang and has on board dimming
LEDs and Spectrum output
The Viparspectra uses cool white 5000K and warm white 3000K LEDs as well as 660nm reds and far red LEDs to deliver a balanced Full spectrum designed for full cycle growing from seed to harvest
MIGRO Test results
The power consumed at the wall was 197 watts and the average PAR of 547 µmols/m²/sec in a 4ft x 2ft (1.2m x 0.6m) grow area means the Viparspectra P2000 has a real world system efficiency of 2.00 µmols/watt (usable PPF/watt). A very good result for a grow light in this price range.

Thank you so much for your professionalism and good video, Shane. The video content is very detailed and the data is very accurate, including the introduction of the full spectrum and other accessories, the characteristics of the P2000, etc. We believe grower friends will find what they want to know from your video. We will continue to follow you. Your channel is really great！👍🏼Thank you again and wish you a happy life.
What kind of diodes do you use on this model?
Got the P1000 of your video and it does the job , I've grown seedlings under it , and added it to my flower room when needed 😉
i have 2 of them & couldnt be happier , thaks for your review
The wires for hanging them are fine. If you make a loop with each one, by attaching both ends to the same point on the case. That cuts the drop in half, and I have had zero issues with them by doing that.
hi shane , great review , ty vm .. i run 2 of these in my 4x4 and 1 of them in my 4x3 with a smaller 100 w light from walmart .... they do run a lil hot so extra venting and air flow needed to keep optimal temps in the tents .... i was happy to hear your overall conclusion/assessment with the numbers on this light ... ty vm again !!
SHANE is the Man! Playa Playa ‼️ great review buddy
Bought two of them for my 2x4 tent, strictly for veg. Thanks for this video!
i really think theyre the best bang for your buck and its not even close...im happy with mine
Already on it Shane 2 of these in a 4x4 is outstanding 1000 in da middle and 900+ on the edges coz of the crossova strength in da middle lights are virtually up against both walls.
Nice review. I like the heat sink. If I owned a grow light company you would be my Engineering Manager.
Thanks Shane!
I found ihem to be excellent in a 3x4 foot tent. Low heat, great results.
Great video, thank you!
Thanks Shane, been using this light in a 4x2 tent for the last 3 months. Seeing really good results. Tent gets a little warm, but been able to keep it under 27C/80F with the use of an exhaust fan.
hi , i had heat issues as well in a small tent, what i did was remove the driver and solder on a longer kabel for driver and dimmer.. no more heat issues after that..
a fan blowing over driver works as well ..
pretty much any light in a 4X2 is gonna run hot in a warm climate, it's a tight space with the tent zipped up.
I leave the bottom of my tent open and exhaust out the top. Also added an ac unit to the room. Im running a 4x4 so it might be a bit taller that your 4x2. Mine is just over 6' tall. I really need to exhaust out the window instead of the room. When the plants get big they put alot of moisture into the air and even the ac has trouble dealing with it.
@@GMCLabs I'll be exhausting in my room, and i got a powerful dehumidifer with a capacity of 24l/24h.. Do you think this will be ok? It's a 3x3 tent and a 20m2 room
Nice Shane! Another great P series option in a 4X2? I run 3 P 1000's in mine during flower(2 for veg), it's perfect cause I have 3 plants so each one has it's own light. Plus the price for them is crazy low now (under $70 each).
I've had this light for about 9 months now and it has been doing very well for me considering the price. I have used it in both a 2x4 and a 3x3, and judging by how that par map looks, it should have pretty good coverage in the 3x3 as well. I, and probably lots of other people, would love to see how most lights cover the non-recommended sized areas like using a 2x4 light in a 3x3 space and vice versa. I'd also be curious to see how this light would do in a 2.5x3.5 area, I'm guessing that would be this lights sweet spot for average par. Love all your content and keep up the great work Shane.
Does it work in 2x2 any grow tent without burn or too much heat?
@@yodarrr4008 heat? these lights won't produce much heat at all if you dim them a bit.
Thank you for another great review sir. I am planning to do two of these lights in a 4x4, what spacing do you recommend between the two fixtures.
I was looking at these but your GLS 200 fixtures are cheaper even including VAT, I'm going GLS. Nice one!
the P2000 is amazing!.
I just bought this light and currently waiting for it to arrive. I'm really excited and I'd like to ask you if it's suitable for succulents and cacti growth (and if so how to treat them during their resting period)
PS Amazing job on your videos it's a pleasure to learn so many things!😁
Tnx. Shane✌🏻
Same light I have, I was hoping for a review from you. Had it over a year now, I love it. I also have the maxisun PB2000. I added a PC fan to both blow air across the top heatsink, adds hardly any noise or additional power draw and keeps it 20c cooler. Id like to actually see tests like that to see if modding lights like that will make them brighter. It should in theory.
Which one you like better?
@@awesomeguyat7771 The viparspectra, bc it has the dimmer knob and the heatsink is a better design, since it has fins rather than just being a flat sheet of aluminum.
@@GMCLabs Makes sense. Looking at maybe picking one of these up myself in the new year.
How did you power the PC fan?
@@codybenson25 12v wall wart.
I use this light its good
I was thinking about building a board with 2 Samsung QB288 boards and a dimmable 240W Meanwell driver for a 60x60 room. I was wondering how the efficiency increases as the boards are dimmed, the idea was to run them at about 50% power to increase lifespan
How would you suggest I shorten this light in my tent?..... I'm using the cables it came with but as you mentioned the light hangs low once the plant starts growing
I literally just finished putting a p2000 in my 2x4 tent with a maxsisun mf 1000. Should be good if I can keep temps in check
Shane can you please do a comparison between the 2000 and the new 2500 from viparspectra?
Just bought this…. Fingers crossed 🤞
how is it? Looking to get this or a 250mh
whats going on with the Viparspectra PAR**** series. I picked up a PAR1500 and loving it! Are there any tests of this model?
Hi would you recommended the viparspectra p2000 or the lumatek ats 200w?
2 of the p1500 in a 2x4 is great I couldn’t imagine 2 of these lol
We have 3 of The P-150's and I've always been impressed. Great heat sink, yet most boards were just Aluminum then!
I noticed a great "trick" to provide more hanging height, like Shane mentions momentarily. The 2 holes on each side of the fixture from where the cable's should hang, seemed a similar size apart from each other, like older HID(HPS/MH), AC reflectors with the traditional "V" clip hangers?
They worked great! With the still available, inexpensive "V" clips fitting perfectly. With 2 "V" clips you can actually hang the fixture from the top bars of the tent!
This was a big advantage at the time! Fixtures are still running great today!!!👍
I run 2 P1500s in a 4x2 also. It works great. Two of these P2000s in a 9 sqft 3x3 or the Mars 3.3 x 3.3 square ft would be a nice fit for these. Such a good price.
I jave the 2000 and a maxsisun PB2000 in a 4x4 and its definitely more than enough light to grow anything that will fit in the space, and with that much lights, it's hard to keep it all in the tent.
@@timturk1899 or you can just double up fold that wire hanger to reduce the length 50%, that's what I do in my 2X2 during flower.
I run 3 p2000 in a 4×4 🤘🤘🤘
What are those green lights illuminating the migro logo on the wall?
Great reviews you always do Shane 🙂 Is there enough cable there to remove the driver & hang separately?
I find it helps with the Mars Hydro P1000 , keeping drivers seperate for less heat.
Viparspectra looks solid design I would upgrade to, yes those hangers are very long.🐱
Hi Suzy Cat, the drivers fixed on the top of the light fixture but it is separated from the heatsink so it should run pretty cool👍
Thanks @@MIGROLIGHT 👍🏻
Is this a good light for growing two plants or would I need two of these
Where can I get one of those spectrum analyzers
im sure you can double up the hanging wire thus reducing its length by half
Hi I'm using a p2000 in a 1m ×1m wide by 2m high tent is it ok to lower it more then what they say to on the using instructions
im not sure about everyone else but these are how i prefer the reviews. we don't need all those fancy camera angles and editing.
Absolutely!
I have been interested in buying one of these lights for a while But I have a budget And I want to keep electricity bill down what would be a good choice for someone looking to grow only one or two plants without them struggling not getting enough light ? Please could you help
I like the light but the drivers on the P series got very hot compared to the xs series.
Great video do you know which budget light would cover a 4x4 tent seed to harvest if I used 2 of them?
Hi,
We have tested quite a few lights now that cover a 4x2 space, for cost versus efficiency our ARAY 4 is very competitive.
Thanks.
this guy is like the bob ross of grow lights
haaaappy trees ^.^
I recently bought two p 4000 and I'm currently in the middle of my first grow 😁
hows it going
Works good nugs were decent can't complain although if I had to do it again I would buy a spider farmer or any light that's not from China
@@hambone7181 I would focus on your soil & nutrients before buying a different light. The other lights you mentioned won't make a difference in your results.
@@hambone7181 Spider Farmer is also a Chinese company.
Is it just my opinion or is this 3x2 light? Novere near coverage for bigger than that.
How does it compare to two hydra 1000’s?
Can anyone tell me what the blue switch/screw on the driver is used for?
Can't go wrong with most of LEDs out there now it's just a matter of cost !
Well the p2000 will run you around $170 on the viparspectra website but if you get it from Amazon without the code you will pay about $150. But wait there is more the p2000 pales in comparison with the larger p2500 which is also available on Amazon for $170 so to put that in perspective you can get a much larger and better value light for the same price as the smaller p2000 on Amazon right now. Though I believe the code will only work on the viparspectra website. However you will save a ton of money buying it on Amazon and if you wanna get one even cheaper than that you can go to the viparspectra p2500 and look for new/used section and get one for $150. I have 3 p2500 and 1 p2000 models in my 7×4 grow room. Let me tell you there is nothing more valuable on the market today than these lights. In fact the reason why the endorsed migro to show this light and not the newest Xs series of lights viparspectra made after these. Is because he had already done a review for the Xs series and when he compared it to the pro series. He found that the older model pro series were better in every way. I would imagine in lue of this he was asked to remove that old video.
my light has around upper 500's to lower 600's at ends of tent where its 2 ft , and along the 4 ft sides it was giving around 800. this thing could cover a 4 x 3 tent!. of course I raised mine up to where it was a maximum of 900 to 950 umols on center. I dont understand his par chart and why its so weak at ends!.
JUST BOUGHT THIS LIGHT TODAY PAID $139.00 AMAZON WITH A $40. OFF COUPON GOOD SIZE LIGHT AT 20" X14", 200WATTS ALSO A 2X2X55" TENT FOR $64.00, AND $240 FOR 40 SEEDS ON ILGM SEEDS .. THEY HAD A HOLIDAY SALE BUY 10 GET 10,BOUGHT 2 AUTO FLOWERS, 20 SEEDS EACH.TY BECAUSE I BOUGHT IT ON THIS REVIEW.
I'm planning on putting one in a 4 x 4 do u think that it will be enough for two plants as I just want to finish their flowering off I will put two in there but when I can buy the second one
I have these lights. I do believe that you can easily flower with 1 light in a 4x4. Just make 2 sections. And keep both plants on side with one light until you get a second light. I recently bought p2000 on Amazon 153$ us dollars.
Not even close, 1 of these isn't enough for a 4X4 with a conventional amount of plants but for you positioning your 2 under it will be just fine.
👍🏼✊🏻🍁✌🏼
Hi Shane long time viewer here.. You use to check temperatures.. I'm wondering what kind of temps are coming from the ballast?
mate i got some mars hydro sp3000 (running in array) the ballest /meanwell driver runs at max 37c the lights get to about 23c ,its nothing when you ad a standard size fan for the room ,its acutialy needs heating up ,hope this helped
Thanks that's great and dandy and I'm aware the plants like the extra temps to a degree.. but I noticed my mars hydro run very noticeably hotter than say my spiderfarmer of the same wattage.. I'm running multiple panels I'd like to know the temps on the on the Viparspectra. thank you for your concern
@@jackValentine189 If you have a fan on top of the driver it's not gonna be any hotter than the SF
@Stang Cobra yes but ideally the over all temps will be higher and have to be dealt with, and quite a bit higher when running 4 x 100w panels in a 5x5 of course someone can run fans with air all over making it near impossible to stabilize the humidity, where as you can omit the problem in the first place rather than having a rookie rig, the plants won't be happy in, you ever hear of windburn well it's real don't be a junior grower.
@@jackValentine189 you came to the conclusion I'm a "Junior" grower by the 1 sentence reply I left saying a fan on top of a driver will help cool it?
I happen to have 3
P1000's for flower in a 4X2 in the deep south SO I'm quite aware of temperature inside a tent..
Have those light in 60x90 cm and results are superb dont need to buy anymore any new light, and light is cool too.
When we gonna see review of top grow light as SanLight is?
I can only say that all recent Dutch Passion award wining strain samples are grown under SanLight.
I am sure Dutch Passion will be happy to back my words if anybody contact them
You said you were glad the blurple had gone just got two of the viparspectra reflector series 600w actual draw 265 w each are they that bad?
In general plants don't care photons are photons but you are going to spend more on electricity for the same amount of light.
@@chicofrito4689 thanks just using now and am impressed tbh plus I got two for 100£ maybe next time I might throw a 250w hps in middle of them in my 4x4
See if they'll send ya a p600 Shane. The price is a ridiculous bargain and would seem the way to go in terms of coverage spread if you scaled them to your grow size. Thanks for the work you do Shane!
Loop the hangers and you get half the height, thats what I did :)
I feel like there are much better options for a 2x4.. this light would be fine (if you ran 2 of them) but that would cost about $500 Canadian.
its 300 each, how 500
Anyone know much about the vb series
There had to be a Channel comparing in action canapea grow of this lights 😂
Honestly I feel like sanlight is so good that it hurts.
I still think they are a good mile away from perfect!
not M/W driver?
You just double the wire through twice and now it's half the distance it's actually about 3 inches then
I have four of these in a 4X4 for $500, you don't need to spend $1500 to light a 4X4!
Theyre 300$ each....
@@MrJustliketht they’re 175$ US.
Any business who does not respond to their customers inquiries when their light has quit within the warranty period is not worth doing business with
They dont seem all that cheap in the UK
Some of the red light's are off.
Those par readings are all over the tent. This is a terrible light and you wanted to say it but didn't. I wish you would have put 2 of these in there but then you would have to buy one, lol. For a 2x4 tent, nothing beats the Grow Light Science, Grow 300. Par readings of 1000 in the center and 900 on the edges and corners. Now that's a good light.
Wow TH-cam keep deleting my comments.. Vipar are not to be trusted as they change there specs after the reviews have gone out. EU xs2000 still only have 504 diodes .. Just go read the amazon comments lol
I bought two XS 2000 from Belgium and I received two lamps with 700 Samsung lm281+ LEDs, I asked for an exchange with two XS2000 made up of Samsung lm301b LEDs and these thieves did not want to replace them. they offered me a 10% discount...I told them that thieves could keep their 10% discount. viparspectra= thieves.never again
@@fantomas717 Now you mention it i did see a review with an XS2000 having 700 diodes which did not make any sense.. Now i understand. Yeh if the company cannot be honest then I cannot give them my money, sorry to hear that happened to you, even tho you can still use them lights and they will grow decent plants, the fact they were not honest is the problem and a big problem at that. Thanks for your comment as i felt i was the only one who has noticed these discrepancies
@@Bassjunkie_1 I bought two marshydro fc3000 with Samsung lm301b LEDs. a serious company not like viparspectra.never again.
I’m glad I don’t look like a zombie anymore. Saggy eyes etc I bet he goes for a nap after this video 🤣
The Mars Hydro sp 3000 has the best to buy for coverage of any light
Why
@@rockshelter862 The best 2x4 even coverage and elimination. Two of them were great in a 4x4 tent you only use one light when the plants are small and then they grow into two of them where if you had one single white you would be wasting a lot of electricity
@@johnroehsler6440 4x2 you speak about the Mars hydro or the spectra . ?
@@rockshelter862 the Mars Hydro sp3000 is awesome

I bought a light from this company and it doesn't work anymore and I'm within the warranty. And they won't help me and they won't help me and won't even respond. I strongly suggest doing business with someone else who is actually cares about their business their products and their customers
