by TUBU

May 27, 2025


In the field of plant lighting, the innovation of LED technology is profoundly changing the cultivation mode of modern agriculture. As a TUBU China LED grow lights supplier, we combine years of experience in the industry to provide you with a guide to avoid the pitfalls of purchasing.

Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls in Purchasing LED Plant Lights: Six Core Concerns

Beware of False Parameters of LED Plant Lights

False labeling of luminous efficacy: require suppliers to provide third-party test reports, focusing on verifying the ratio of PPF (Photosynthetic Photon Flux) to actual power consumption

Spectral counterfeiting: ask to check the Spectral Distribution Diagram (SPD) to confirm the inclusion of key wavelength bands (e.g., 450nm, 660nm, 730nm)

LED Plant Light Heat Dissipation Design Verification

On-site touching of the back of the lamp: the temperature rise of high quality quantum board should not exceed 40℃ after 4 hours of operation

Inspection of heat sink material: preferred 6063 aerospace aluminum + nano carbon coating combination

LED Plant Light Driver Power Supply Inspection

Certification standards: must pass UL8800/EN62471 photobiological safety certification

Efficiency requirements: drive efficiency ≥ 90%, power factor PF ≥ 0.95

LED Plant Light Light Degradation Warranty Terms

Be wary of the "5-year warranty" word game: require a clear L70 standard (luminous flux maintenance rate of 70%)

TUBU commitment: light degradation of no more than 15% during the 5-year warranty period. TUBU promises no more than 15% light decay during the 5-year warranty period.

LED Plant Light Scene Suitability

Leafy vegetables: recommended PPFD 200-300μmol/m²-s

Fruits and vegetables: need to configure the adjustable spectrum model, and increase the far-red light (730nm) during the flowering period

Seedling cultivation: recommended to use the UV-B supplemental module (280-315nm)

LED Plant Light Supplier Qualification Verification

Production qualification: whether through the ISO9001 quality management system certification

Patent technology: whether the core chip has independent intellectual property rights

Project cases: required to provide more than 3 similar project acceptance report

As a pioneer in the field of LED plant lights in China, TUBU has always taken "Empowering Agriculture with Light" as its mission and is committed to providing efficient and reliable lighting solutions for growers around the world. Choosing professional suppliers, so that every kilowatt-hour is converted into real yield, which is the core value of wholesale procurement.
