Best 4x2 or 250W to 300W led grow light 2024

I review the best grow lights I have tested for a 4ft x 2ft or 120cm x 60cm grow space. These are the best grow lights from 250 watts to 300 watts I have tested and are available on the market today.
Full blog post here: migrolight.com/blogs/grow-light-reviews/best-grow-light-for-a-4-x-2-grow-tent-2022-12-grow-lights-compared
The calculation for 3 year cost is based on delivering 800 µmols average PAR to the plant canopy in a 4ft x 2ft area. The cost includes the price of the fixture and the cost of electricity at the average US rate of 16.8C per KW hour run for 3 years at 12 hours per day.

[@Zardnokalicious]

The SP3000 was my first grow light. I bought it and hung it over half of a 5X5, once I got started, I added another one. I added a tent and upgraded to FC-E8000 which is definitely more light than my two SP3000 tent, but the quality level from the SP3000 always seems to be just a tad better than the FC-E8000 tent. I am looking now to replace the two SP3000 with another larger bar light and move the SP3000s into 2X4 tents for a mom tent and tester tent.

[@rotnbazturd7569]

3 Mars Hydro SP3000 in a 6' X 4' enclosure, on my 3rd year. Probably only need 2 as I can't turn the dimmers more than 60% or I get light burn/bleaching even at 24 - 30 inches from canopy. Had the first one in a 2 X 4 tent and honestly it was way more light than needed. From what I have experienced the SP3000 can light a 4 x 4 space. Got them on sale for $239 a piece can't be happier as they out grow the 1600 watts HPS I was using with like 10% of the heat and half the wattage.

Because i love flexibility i went for two Viparspectra xs 1t500 pro. I combine them with an external Controller. So i am able to dim them via bluetooth from zero to hundred percent. and i can simulate sundown ein sunrise as well.

[@zumbaladin]

I love my 4x2, so discreet and perfect for 3 decent sized plants+dehumidifier (around 430g/grow). If I needed a new fixture for my 4x2 I'd probably buy two Viparspectra XS1500 Pro (2x155 Watt) as I find very useful the possibility to raise the power (some Sativas express themselves better with more light intensity) and I like the fact that with power decreasing over the years I'd still have plenty of what the plants need in 3-4 years. And if I had the money I'd set up a second 4x2 with Migro Aray 4, its very efficient power consumption is astounding ( all the people who own one are very happy with it) and the price is so competitive. I'd love to see an Aray 4+ with 320 Watt (as in one of your discussions with Dr. Bruce Bugbee he mentioned "hemp" could take a lot more light intensity than other plants and that is where the ballgame seemed to go: the possibility to experiment with more intensity).

[@roywarriner8441]

I have an Aray 4+red in one 4×2 and a Aray 4 Pro in another. No need to replace them but if I did I would go with the XS 2500 rather than two XS 1500's. It's basically two 1500's with a spacer between them. I think the driver can be mounted outside the tent. They were on sale on Amazon in the new year, it's over now but still a good price for those lights.

[@exshenanigan2333]

I was thinking about the same after watching Shaun’s and DrMJCoco’s reviews. I was completely set on lm301h evo diodes but at XS1500 Pro’s price point it was hard to beat. XS2500 PRO was a little more than 2 XS1500 PROs on Amazon so I think going with 2 1500 PROs may make more sense. If something goes wrong mid flower you still have light until you can figure something out if you’re running 2 1500s but if 2500 goes bad you’re down to grocery store bulbs for at least a couple of days (considering most people are not hoarding grow lights :))

[@teej7577]

OK.. I'll say it...If Just about every grow light is Using the Samsung Diodes..Do they not become slightly Ordinary and well Overated??..It's the Amount of Diodes..the Placement the Spectrum and Design that makes the light...And that's without all the other Variables that's in A Grow...The XS1500 PRO was a Gamechanger and still is...Most people wouldn't know a Bridgelux from a Samsung..let alone A Samsung H from a Samsung L...Led Companies are making sales based on people like yourself Becoming Sheep

Just came across your reviews love it! I’m in market for a new light for a 4x4 are you going to be testing results for one soon? I’m between viparspectra ks model and mammoths mint light and SP new model? What’s your opinion on those? I don’t see a lot of reviews on mammoths new wavelength light

[@josephspezia3509]

Have you started to use the Samsung 301h diodes in your lights?

[@josephspezia3509]

Hey Shane, I'm wondering if your aware of the viparspectra xs pro 2500 & 3000? I'd love to see you revise this episode w/ those included. To be clear idk if there is some mix up in the retail dept. Viparspectra Rep did tell me they're different.

[@user-dk4mq4om7k]

Hi Shane. Might I make a recommendation for your upcoming 4x4 video(s)? Try to differentiate between lights with maximum outputs that require added co2 and lights which don’t require co2. It seems like exceeding 1000 ppfd at max is common but the average tent grower probably doesn’t need anything over 1000, maybe more like 900 max. Just a thought. I really appreciate your great content. Keep up the good work.

[@user-dk4mq4om7k]

One other quick thought. The wattage consumed at various operating percentages would be really helpful too. For example, what wattage would be consumed if a light was dimmed? Would the calculation always be total wattage subtract the dimming percent? 500 watts run at 50% = 250 watts? Is that how it always works or do other factors change the number?

[@BigSlick1075]

I would love for you to test the OpticLED Slim 320s in a 2x4. It's the light that I have and I like it, but I wanna know how well it tests

[@mikeinnj4424]

I was surprised you didn’t include the medic grow mini sun 320 on your list. Also, would you consider the 500 too extreme for a 4x2?

Have you heard on tmlapy 500 or aglex m400 on the fence about which one to get

[@ohmimprovement5767]

The spiderfarmers not co2 only. It allows you to dial back a little on power and gives amazing canopy coverage. IMHO that's the way to go!! I have the se-7000 in my 4x4. I started out with it in my 5x5 but I fill the canopy corner to corner and I want adequate par levels throughout the canopy or its kinda counterproductive.

[@imppen]

Looks like you've tested the older SF2000 here? The newest one has better spread AFAIK and Samsungs newest EVO leds. Would be interesting to see this light in comparison.

[@TheGreenGrower618]

I've been running the g4500 in a 2x4 for about a year and have absolutely no complaints. It's coverage and power is unbeatable. It's literally wall to wall 1200ppfd on 100%. My yields and quality couldn't be much better. I just setup a new ac Infinity 3x3 with their controller and ventilation system and I think I'm going to go with the g5000 for it. It's pricey but just as powerful at the g4500 in a 2x4. The viparspectra 3x3 light looks good too but it's 180 watts less than the g5000 and I really want to maximize the yield in my space.

I had two se5000s in a 4x8 it was pretty good but after Migro’s review of the G8600 I upgraded and keep them dialed up to no higher than 80% ever not having to run them at 100% really reduces wear and tear Spider farmer gear is pretty good for being considered “cheap” by some of my friends who only use chilLED or black dog but I smashed their numbers consistently and consecutively using what they call Walmart grow lights but it’s honestly it’s ultimately the driver and not the car imo lol Oh and I use one the se5000s now to veg clones and moms and it’s never ever been over 50% in the 4x4 veg tent and it almost works too good for that application having to top clones 8-10 times in a 30-40 day veg cycle they get really crowded too almost counter productive thinking about using 2x4s and a half sheet of plywood to double my space to make a bottom and top compartment in the 4x4 efficient use of space

I noticed your title caps at 'up to 300 Watts' even though the top LED exceeds 400 Watts. Wouldn't '250 to 400 Watts' better reflect the range of products featured?

Shane, can you boost the power draw on the Migro Aray 4 to 320 watts?! You would now have the best 2x4 light on the market.

[@user-dk4mq4om7k]

I’m confused about the usable PPF. Is this the same as average PPFD of the fixture?

[@racerx3669]

I think two viparspectra xs1500 pros nine inches apart would be better. They show great par maps for this configuration in the manual. It’s comm8n to see the light go for 75 dollars shipped. After sales, coupons, and promos that is. That’s $150-200 max for the two. And 300 watts ain’t bad.

[@psylocyn]

At the moment I’m running (in my 2x4) 2 groplanner 150 watt and a spider farmer 100 watt. I get great yields but it’s hot as hell in the tent. I’ll be buying your 2x4 fixture as soon as I get permission from my wife. Maybe I should help one of the lights stop working 🤔

[@PhillyJuggalo]

I do find it funny that in the three test for best lights this year especially when it come to budget and quality not one list had any of the AC Infinity lights including their newest and best Ionframe series (commercial grade tent lights) which is an absolutely amazing light for the price especially when most other companies tend to double the price that AC Infinity has for the same equivalent lights. Honestly it’s the best light I’ve personally ever owned and still use to this day, mines for a 4x4 but there are other sizes. Hope all is well Shane and hope you have an amazing upcoming month, Namaste.

[@tthtonekid]

It isn't very efficient and puts out a ton of heat along with the light. Just look at the par maps they release themselves. You gotta bake the center of your tent to get sufficient light to the sides and corners.

[@stangcobra592]

Atreum 320 and the FC4000 have a higher ratio of red which makes them great for flower. AC EVO is a Good piece too.

[@PhillyJuggalo]

@@tthtonekid actually it doesn’t put out a lot of heat, the light I’m talking about you can remove the driver from the back and on top of that the driver it’s not heating my room up since I have a small clip fan (less than $20) running on low on it and never had any heat issue, you can also lower heat in a grow tent using humidity which I do and my tent has never gone over 77 degrees Fahrenheit, you can also open tent vents to help over heating or grow in in colder months to naturally counteract it. I’m sorry if you have over heating issues but if you don’t have thing’s completely balanced out then yes you’ll get overheating naturally and on and you’re supposed to put it at lower levels then other lights because remember it’s in the description it’s a Commercial Grade meaning extremely powerful and intense not only that remember there’s IR LEDS in there too which naturally create a bunch of heat lol. Shane and Bruce Bugbee have both explained and showed in experiments all of this but it’s quite basic knowledge. Oh and also take into fact if you grow in colder months your house heater will also be constantly adding heat to your house and room and me personally that still hasn’t raised my grow tent heat from 77 degrees Fahrenheit with a humidifier constantly keeping it at a 1.3 kpa VPD level (for veg stage). My plants have absolutely loved the light and I’ve never had any burning issues either. Honestly I’ve never heard of anyone else other than you have heat issues with the light and I mean absolutely no disrespect by that, but out of hundreds of reviews I’ve never heard of that issue happening. Oh and btw every company that has removable drivers even directly states if your having heat issues place the driver outside the tent which I have since day 1 and just so you know I have a pretty basic setup too: tent, two clip fans for inside the tent, 1 clip fan covering the driver, my Ionframe, humidifier and an in-line fan place outside my tent as well with a basic fabric pot setup lol. I truly wish you luck on your next grow and if I misunderstood what you ment then I apologize I’m responding to how it sounds to me. Have a great upcoming week, Namaste. Oh and one last thing it is highly efficient even running with Samsung LM301H EVO diodes the most efficient diodes on the market literally lol.

[@PhillyJuggalo]

@@stangcobra592 maybe so but density is a bit higher than most other company’s when it comes to AC EVO. Of course not disrespecting other companies just from proof from growers that use a lot of different companies lighting and even in their opinions it’s made end results denser.

[@tthtonekid]

@PhillyJuggalo bruh just using the most efficient diodes doesn't make your light the most efficient. That's why migros lights put a lot of others to shame using old Samsung diodes. Just look at the coverage uniformity posted by ac infinity for the evo 4 for example. 1400 in the center to 682 on the edges. This disparity gets even worse the closer you get to the canopy. Not saying it's a bad light but that's why it's not on here.

[@Langenholz]

Aren't the PAR maps difficult to compare when the hanging height varies between different models? Or am I missing something?

The reason hanging heights are different is because every grow light will have its own optimum hanging height. Then you can compare the optimum PAR map for each grow light.

The HLG probably has more like 2.65 now. Same goes for most of the others. It makes them look worse when compared to Lights that have been tested recently.

[@stangcobra592]

@@marcusparnell2403 you should be interested in the spectrum too, the FC4000 has it beat.

[@stevemuller82muller65]

Well done Shane 🥳 can't wait for you to do a analysis of the new MARS Hydro fc 4000. I think it's probably one of the best values on the market today for a 2×4. I got one on the Black Friday sale for 271$ 🇺🇲😎🤙 regularly 320$🥳 . I'd consider it a budget light but has really high performance with the Samsung 301H EVO diodes 🧐

[@SamiLiukkonen358]

Greit deel,!!!...nice that you wait right Time bye it,!!.👍🌞🤯

[@josephspezia3509]

Only fce Don't waste your time & money on reg fc. Viparspectra has better specs & longer cords. Fyi

When you're done rest, buy the Best Grandmaster LEDs Borg! The GML team members are Extremely bright...

[@user-lw7xg3xk1p]

I think it would be nice to see the Medicgrow 500 watt Minisun-2 compared. I have never used a better light in a 2 x 4 tent. It is the best bang for your buck. It costs less and performs better than every light on this list. The 320 watt version doesn’t even belong in this class. Maybe because it blows the doors off the Migro…

[@prof.puggle1631]

No AC Infinity in the line up?

[@shanedupree420]

They won’t send him one cuz they know it won’t beat his lights. Output, cost, efficiency, even spread, heat… overall migro beats ac at least on 2x4 for veg rooms.

HLG lights have never left me down

[@josephspezia3509]

Too expensive They're nice lights, but.... Other brands are very close to comparable.

[@mattrobinson6594]

@@josephspezia3509 after 15+ yrs of using LED lights i've found you get what you pay for...the bad part is the LED technology keeps getting better and makes our current lights outdated too fast. (good part is weight and flavor go up with new technology)

[@EricCheetoh]

Why does everyone ignore the viparspectra v2000 or v1000??...its always the p2000 or p1000

[@Andi_M.]

It's a shame that you tested the 5 year? old SP 3000 from Mars Hydro instead of the new FC 4000 EVO.

[@petercsigo3314]

Not at all the SP 3000 it's been delivering for me a top performance with a very good yield.

[@DaSilva995]

It would also take it out of testing range

[@Kelsdoggy]

The Migro is infinitely the better deal here

Chilled Growcraft x6 mini is still king

[@bobroberts9306]

I needed to upgrade my grow light for a 4 x 2 tent and was seriously considering ChilLed's x3 mini. But then, Ac Infinity came out with their ion frame bar lights. They have Samsung LM301 H EVO diodes and are much cheaper than ChilLed- so I bought the EVO3 for my 4 x 2 grow tent. Big mistake, although a nice light, it didn't properly provide enough light intensity around the perimeter of the grow area. I'm now interested in the new 2024 ChilLed x3 330w light. For my current new grow, I have added AC's 16" supplemental lights in hope of much better results. After this grows results, I'll decide on whether to keep the EVO3 or go with a ChilLed Growcraft light. Honestly, if AC's light was 20" x 40" and over 300w, it possibly could be a great 4 x 2 light. Anyway, 420 sales will probably be happening when my current grow finishes and I'll seriously consider purchasing a ChilLed growcraft light. Any advice and thoughts concerning ChilLed's light would be appreciated. Thanks

That's My First choice atm...if I can get one for a good price in Australia and isn't last years stock..Spewing

[@christittle1131]

What about the vipar spectra 4000. I know vipar list it as a 5 x3 but that was 4-5years ago it fits in a 4x2 easily. I mean it’s only 39” x11” if it was in a 4x2 it be a foot narrow and almost a foot shorter. Vipar messed up putting a 5x3 for it cause it is a 4x2 KILLER!!!! U put hlg 350r in and hlg says it’s for 3x5 why not understand how vipar spectra xs4000 isn’t the light for a 4x2

[@josephspezia3509]

It's only advertising, boasting what it can do. Your right for operating it in that space. I believe the xs pro 3000 has taken that space. They run cooler and drivers are detached w long cords. I use & love my viparspectra

[@robinradema1]

I've been running the Mars hydro sp3000 for about 3 years now. Great lights. Only bad thing about it seems to be the dimmers. I've replaced mine on both my lights.

[@MIGROLIGHT]

Thanks for letting us know

[@petercsigo3314]

I've been using the same light and there's nothing wrong with the dimmers.

[@timpage5021]

Yea after a couple years the dimmer gets weird . At full tilt it’s not actually 100% anymore . I turn the dimmer off and it’s at full wack. But yea after a couple years the dimmer knob is useless . Still crushes a 2x4 better than most anything pulling the same wattages

[@Eskomgrow]

You should make bigger LED lights ..... I'm from South Africa and use to watch your videos until 2023 they got over here i got the 4bar and its 👌🔥💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@MrE1981]

He does make bigger lights, 4x4 and 5x5 bar lights. Browse the channel or website.

[@tthtonekid]

The 5x5 is a monster in my 4x4 never used it past 80% lol

[@havougmbh]

Best 300W to 800W led grow light planned?

[@josephspezia3509]

U don't need high wattage anymore. Newer lights are far more effective. If u want higher power....rdj bounds is the brand. For a cheaper yet strong light. I've heard they get warm, though. Idk if they can be ran at 220 for cooler operating temps.

[@josephspezia3509]

I personally love viparspectra & ac infinity If Shane incorporated samsung 301h, that would be IT

[@jimmy_Ross]

LIKE FOR EXAMPLE YOUR LIGHT YOU SELL WILL NEVER GO FOR HALF THE PRICE SO THERE OUT BUT FIXTURES LIKE THE VIPARSPECTRA I KNOW YOU CAN GET THOSE FOR HALF THE PRICE SOME TIMES SO HOW WOULD THAT LOOK LIKE IF IT WAS HALF THE PRICE COMPARED TO THE OTHER AT FULL PRICE

[@damienharrison1]

The Array puts out almost 50% more light than the Viparspectra, does that answer your question?

[@jimmy_Ross]

so i can buy 2 viparspectra lights for the same price as 1 ARRAY wright lol so how does the ARRAY put out twice as much light when clearly if you used 2 viparspectra its better then then 1 ARRAY and it cost the same so how dumb are you @@damienharrison1

He'll not answer you if you write in all CAPS, like a r#tard.
