The difference between HID grow lights and LED grow lights

2023-09-14

First of all, the application of HID lamps is relatively mature, and the penetration rate of LED lamps continues to increase due to high efficiency and energy saving.

Plant growth lights refer to lamps that provide the required light energy for plants when there is no natural lighting conditions or when supplementary light is needed. Plant growth lights can generally be divided into HID plant growth lights, LED plant growth lights and other plant growth lights. The main application fields of traditional lamps are indoor and outdoor lighting, landscape lighting, etc. Their main function is to meet human lighting needs and belong to visual lighting; the application field of plant growth lamp products is mainly for plant supplementary light, and their main function is to provide the light energy needed for plant growth. , belongs to non-visual lighting; there are big differences between the two in terms of application scenarios, power supply, spectrum, light source, control factors, etc.


HID lamp is the abbreviation of high-pressure gas discharge lamp. It is generally composed of HID electric light source, driving power supply (ballast), lamps and other parts. Depending on the inert gas and metal vapor used, HID lighting fixtures can be divided into high-pressure sodium lamps, high-pressure mercury lamps, xenon lamps, metal halide lamps, etc. HID plant growth lights are one of the most widely used light sources in the field of plant growth lighting, and are very suitable for lighting for large plant cultivation and planting. HID plant growth lights have a low unit price, are not susceptible to photoaging, and have mature and reliable technology. In recent years, with the development of LED technology, more and more downstream industries have begun to use LED plant growth lights. Mainly, LEDs can adjust the spectrum, which can better design the required spectrum for plants. The utilization rate of the spectrum is higher and more efficient. Energy saving.
