Samsung LM301H EVO LED chip

The Mars Hydro Smart FC8000 EVO uses high-quality Samsung LM301H EVO LED chips, known for their high lumen and photon yield, consistent color temperature, and long lifespan. These chips deliver stable output and minimal degradation over time, allowing the FC8000 EVO to provide reliable light distribution and uniform plant growth. Thanks to the high-quality LEDs, there is better efficiency per circuit, less hotspot formation, and a more professional light mix suitable for both vegetative and flowering stages.

Power 800W

The Mars Hydro Smart FC8000 EVO has a nominal power of 800 watts at maximum consumption, making it a powerful solution for commercial grow setups and serious hobbyists. This power provides sufficient light intensity to effectively illuminate a core area of approximately 120×120 cm and up to 150×150 cm maximum, while the design takes into account heat dissipation and stable operation within the specified mains voltage range for reliable daily use.

Efficiency 2.9 µmol/J

With a PPE of 2.9 µmol/J, the Mars Hydro Smart FC8000 EVO offers an excellent ratio between light output and energy consumption, resulting in more usable photosynthetic photons per watt consumed. This efficiency translates into lower energy costs per gram produced and higher photon delivery to the plant canopy compared to older LED or HPS solutions. For growers, this means better yields and a more favorable operating cost balance with intensive use.

Full PAR/UV/IR spectrum

The Mars Hydro Smart FC8000 EVO offers a full-spectrum, balanced, photosynthetically focused spectrum that is highly optimized within the PAR range and includes additional UV and IR components to stimulate secondary metabolites and flower development. This spectrum supports both vegetative growth and the flowering phase by delivering targeted energy in blue, red, and deep red/far-red bands, and improves color and flavor profiles in crops through the controlled presence of UV-A and near-IR wavelengths.

Smart control via iConnect

The Mars Hydro Smart FC8000 EVO is compatible with the optional MarsHydro iConnect smart control, which allows growers to easily program and manage the lamp via an app or controller. Features such as dimming, schedules, multiple presets, and group management allow light profiles to be optimized for different growth stages. iConnect simplifies scaling to multiple units and increases user-friendliness through remote control and organized automation.
