Id grab the 1600 of its in your price range and your looking into mars. You will b a little happier with the footprint if your going to use it to standard recommendations for light to canopy distance. I hang my 1200 at the top of my 4x4 this go to see how it does. I did 2 runs following what they recommend and had pretty good results but I'm trying to see if I can step it up some lol my 4x4 is 6.5ft tall and I clipped the carribeaners directly to the cross poles.

The middle and middle right plants are my first tests this way. I just dropped 3 beans a minute ago so I'll have more of a final conclusion on how I feel to use it best for our plants.

Hey, great information! I was also wondering did you purchase this light directly from Mars hydro ? And if you did, where did they send the item from? US or China?

Direct purchase, I believe the US warehouses have everything they sell now so no waiting for it from China

Every inch you get closer to your plants especially with the LED cause there less likely to burn you will get a inch more of bud, just get to wear the light won't irritate your hand the plants are fine
