Mars Hydro VG80-Red Supplemental Far-Red Light | $99.99 MAP

The Mars Hydro VG80-Red is a targeted far-red supplemental light fixture engineered for craft operators running compact production spaces who need precise IR spectrum augmentation without the overhead of a full-fixture replacement cycle. Outcome: Targeted far-red delivery (730–740 nm) to drive photoperiod signaling and end-of-day extension protocols in space-constrained production environments. Replaces: Uncontrolled HPS supplemental setups and broad-spectrum fixtures used inefficiently for IR augmentation alone. Environment: Grow tents, small production rooms, cabinet enclosures, and tiered plant shelving systems. FACTORY-AUTHORIZED DEALER — CANNAFULL SPECTRUM SOLUTIONS Deployed in licensed commercial facilities across the United States. Quick Spec: MAP $99.99 | SKU: MH-VG80-RED | IR Spectrum: 730–740 nm | Warranty: Up to 5 years Precision Control in Any Space. When your supplemental lighting setup is built on guesswork — fixtures that deliver inconsistent output, IR channels you cannot isolate, and intensity levels you cannot dial in — the cost is invisible until it shows up in your results. Uneven canopy response, unpredictable transition timing, and wasted energy draw are not random events. They are the direct output of equipment that was never designed to give you control. In a compact production space, that lack of precision is amplified: every square foot carries more weight, and every variable you cannot manage becomes a liability you carry through every cycle. After deploying the VG80-Red, the operational picture changes. Far-red delivery becomes a scheduled, repeatable event — not an approximation. End-of-day extension protocols run on demand. Canopy response to photoperiod signaling becomes consistent from run to run, and the fixture does it without generating the thermal load that forces you to compensate elsewhere in your environmental control stack. The space stays predictable. The results follow. The mechanism behind that consistency is a purpose-built IR spectrum output centered on the 730–740 nm waveband — the precise range that drives phytochrome photostationary state shifts and end-of-day signaling responses. The fixture operates on 110–120V input, draws 100W, and delivers 190 µmol/s PPF at 2.0 µmol/J photon efficacy. Dimming is supported, allowing intensity adjustment across growth stages from early vegetative through late flower without swapping hardware. Vegetative coverage reaches 2×2 ft; flower coverage is rated at 1.5×1.5 ft. In practical terms, the VG80-Red delivers 190 µmol/s PPF across a 2×2 ft vegetative footprint at 100W on 110–120V input. Where This Belongs (and Doesn't) Electrical installation, circuit load calculations, and HVAC integration should be reviewed by a licensed electrician or facility engineer before deployment. Cannafull Spectrum Solutions provides product specifications for operator reference only and does not provide installation services. Recommended Deployment Environments Grow tents (2×2 ft vegetative / 1.5×1.5 ft flower footprint) Small production rooms requiring targeted IR supplementation Cabinet and closet enclosures with limited fixture clearance Tiered plant shelving systems where full-spectrum fixtures are already primary Facilities running end-of-day far-red extension protocols Not Recommended For Primary canopy lighting in large-scale production rooms — this is a supplemental fixture, not a standalone primary source Facilities requiring full-spectrum 400–700 nm primary output from a single fixture Operations using the iTime Dual-Plug Timer for dimming control — dimming is not compatible with that timer configuration Environments requiring CSA or Canadian compliance certifications How It Works The VG80-Red is built around a 225-diode array tuned to the 730–740 nm far-red waveband. This is not a broad-spectrum fixture with IR as an afterthought — the entire optical architecture is oriented toward delivering phytochrome-active far-red photons at the canopy level with measurable consistency. The 225 LED chips are configured to produce 190 µmol/s total PPF at a photon efficacy of 2.0 µmol/J, meaning the fixture converts electrical input to usable photon output at a rate that justifies its position in a precision supplemental stack. Power input is 100W on 110–120V, making the fixture compatible with standard facility circuits without requiring dedicated high-amperage drops. The 2026 dimmable version introduces adjustable intensity output, allowing operators to modulate far-red delivery across growth stages — reducing intensity during early vegetative phases and scaling up through late flower — without swapping fixtures or adding external control hardware. One operational constraint applies: dimming is not supported when the fixture is connected to the iTime Dual-Plug Timer. Operators using timer-based scheduling should verify their control configuration before deployment. In practical terms, the VG80-Red delivers 190 µmol/s PPF across a 2×2 ft vegetative footprint at 100W draw on standard 110–120V input, with stage-adjustable dimming available outside of iTime timer configurations. Commercial Assurance The VG80-Red is sold through Cannafull Spectrum Solutions as a factory-authorized dealer. Every unit is covered under the manufacturer's warranty program. Warranty Period: Up to 5 years, as stated by the manufacturer. Customer Support: Lifetime customer support is available through the manufacturer's support channel.

MAP Compliance: This product is sold at MAP pricing of $99.99 (SKU: MH-VG80-RED). Pricing below MAP is not authorized. System Integration Primary Fixture Pairing: Deploy alongside full-spectrum primary fixtures (400–700 nm) to add targeted far-red augmentation without replacing existing canopy lighting infrastructure. Circuit Compatibility: 100W draw on 110–120V input is compatible with standard 15A and 20A facility circuits. Verify total circuit load before adding supplemental fixtures to an existing run. Dimming Control: Intensity adjustment is available via the onboard dimming function. Note that dimming is not compatible with the iTime Dual-Plug Timer — use an alternative scheduling or control method if timer-based dimming is required. Coverage Stacking: For production spaces larger than 2×2 ft, multiple VG80-Red units can be deployed to tile supplemental far-red coverage across the canopy without requiring a single high-wattage fixture. Thermal Load: The fixture's passive thermal management profile keeps heat addition to the grow environment minimal, reducing the compensation burden on environmental control systems in small enclosed spaces.

Operator Field Notes Dimming Compatibility Check First: Before integrating the VG80-Red into an existing control setup, confirm your timer and controller configuration. Dimming is not supported with the iTime Dual-Plug Timer — this is a hard constraint, not a preference. Far-Red Is Supplemental by Design: The 730–740 nm output of this fixture is optimized for photoperiod signaling and end-of-day extension. It is not a replacement for primary full-spectrum canopy lighting. Deploy it as a layer on top of an existing primary fixture stack. Voltage Range Is Narrow: Input is rated for 110–120V. Do not deploy on 240V circuits without confirming fixture compatibility with the manufacturer. Standard U.S. residential and light commercial circuits are within spec. Coverage Footprint Is Stage-Dependent: Vegetative coverage is rated at 2×2 ft; flower coverage drops to 1.5×1.5 ft. Plan fixture spacing based on the growth stage that represents the majority of your production cycle in each zone. Passive Cooling Means No Fan Noise, No Fan Failure: There are no moving parts in the thermal management system. In enclosed spaces where acoustic environment and maintenance overhead matter, this is an operational advantage over active-cooled alternatives. Yield Comparison Baseline: The manufacturer reports approximately 30% yield improvement compared to traditional HPS/MH lamps under equivalent conditions. This figure is manufacturer-reported and should be validated against your specific cultivar and environmental baseline. Operator FAQ Q: Is the VG80-Red a standalone primary light or a supplemental fixture? A: The VG80-Red is a supplemental fixture. Its output is concentrated in the 730–740 nm far-red waveband, which is optimized for photoperiod signaling and end-of-day extension protocols. It does not provide the full 400–700 nm spectrum required for primary photosynthetic canopy lighting. It must be deployed alongside a full-spectrum primary fixture to support a complete production lighting stack. Q: Does the dimming function work with all timer and controller setups? A: No. The 2026 dimmable version of the VG80-Red supports intensity adjustment, but dimming is not compatible with the iTime Dual-Plug Timer. If your facility uses the iTime Dual-Plug Timer for scheduling, the fixture will operate but the dimming function will not respond through that controller. Use an alternative control method if stage-based intensity adjustment is required. Q: What is the actual coverage area for vegetative and flowering stages? A: Vegetative coverage is rated at 2×2 ft. Flower coverage is rated at 1.5×1.5 ft. The reduction in flower coverage reflects the higher photon density requirements during the reproductive stage. Plan fixture placement based on the stage that represents the majority of your production cycle in each zone, and verify PPFD at canopy level for your specific mounting height. Q: What voltage does the VG80-Red require, and is it compatible with standard U.S. facility circuits? A: The VG80-Red operates on 110–120V input, which is compatible with standard U.S. residential and light commercial circuits. At 100W draw, the fixture presents a low circuit load and can be added to existing runs without requiring dedicated high-amperage drops in most configurations. Always verify total circuit load with a licensed electrician before adding fixtures to an existing circuit. Q: What warranty coverage applies to the VG80-Red purchased through Cannafull Spectrum Solutions? A: The VG80-Red carries an up-to-5-year manufacturer warranty when purchased through an authorized dealer. Cannafull Spectrum Solutions is a factory-authorized dealer, which means warranty claims are processed through the manufacturer's standard support channel. Lifetime customer support is also available through the manufacturer. Retain your purchase confirmation as proof of authorized purchase for warranty purposes. Q: How does the VG80-Red compare to HPS supplemental lighting in terms of energy consumption? A: The manufacturer reports that the VG80-Red can effectively replace a 150W HPS light while reducing energy consumption by up to 30%. At 2.0 µmol/J photon efficacy, the fixture converts electrical input to usable photon output at a rate that HPS technology cannot match at equivalent wattage. The manufacturer also reports approximately 30% yield improvement compared to traditional HPS/MH lamps under equivalent conditions — a figure that should be validated against your specific cultivar and environmental baseline before projecting production outcomes.
