The new version of the Illuminator Grow Light represents a substantial upgrade from three bands of emitted light to five. The broader spectrum better supports plant growth and yields larger blossoms in greater quantity that conventional lights. Users report that the new led grow lights reduce costs while producing far better results than the lights that they had available before.
About the Illuminator LED Light
The previous versions of the Illuminator grow light that were available only a year or two ago were merely tri-band. Even in a high tech industry, the Illuminator represented a real innovation. It emitted light in the orange portion of the spectrum, helping users achieve bigger blooms in stronger cycles and more flourishing vegetative growth than those possible with ordinary grow lights.
Advantages of the Tri – Spectrum five band LED
The current top of the line led grow lights are five band, with proprietary technology that emits light in five wavelengths in the red, blue and orange portions of the spectrum. Further information on this innovative technology is available on the manufacturer’s web site.
The nature of proprietary technology
Because the technology used to produce these LED grow lights is proprietary, customers are unable to purchase lights that boost yields, promote blooms and induce growth in the same way from other sources. The illuminating lights available from competitors are most often cheap copies not backed by proper research and development. This makes the Illuminator the industry standard grow light.
What does light have to do with plant growth?
A lot of people learn in school that leaves are green because they absorb all wavelengths of light except yellow and green. Those two wavelengths are reflected back, so that the color people see is just green.
This means that the lights most useful for plant growth is that with wavelengths of red, blue and orange. The portions of the spectrum containing green and yellow light do not offer as much help to developing plants since they are mostly reflected back.
Yellow and green light produced by any grow light are a waste. The Illuminator Grow Light represents a valuable innovation in that its design permits the light produced to be that of the most useful spectra. With this technological innovation, the Illuminator effectively puts out exactly the light wavelengths that growing plants love. This yields huge blooms and massively increased yields unseen with other LED lights used for indoor cultivation.
Details of the Five Banded Illuminator and the Tri-Spectrum Grow Light
Illuminator led grow lights emit a five band spectrum of blue, red and orange that furnish more than 95% light that plants absorb. Usually high intensity lighting only produces 15% light that is absorbed, so the Illuminator rates very well.
Plants need different wavelengths of light at different stages in their growth. The Illuminator Grow Light puts out the optimum wavelengths for growing plants while also supporting every cycle of the growth of a plant.

The Illuminator versus metal halide and sodium lights
Public acceptance of LED grow lights is growing, contributing to the drop in ratings for standard grow lights using HID technology. Some people feel that standard HID lights no longer serve any useful purpose. Many users offer testimonials in support of this point.
Rodney from Delaware stated in reviewing this product that excellent LED lights should soon be available everywhere. He fully endorses the company’s product and says that each has produced only super results. He gives the company five stars and is particularly complimentary about their customer service.
Lloyd from Kentucky calls these led grow lights phenomenal and says that this is the best light available anywhere in the world for growing flowers. He recalls waiting years for a product like this, says using the Illuminator Lights leads to the most rapid flowering he has ever seen and rates the product A+++++.
B from Ohio says she will never again purchase an HID light. She is tired of juggling several light sources as she had to do with HIDs and vows never to buy any form of HID light again. She says that she might buy something else for about $150 like a game or a matching LED set. Normally she has to add additional lights to produce heat. She has not yet tried the 180 Watt or the flower booster, but she believes the led grow lights will function as advertised. B also noted the excellence of customer service.
Jeremy from New Hampshire used the UFO product and found it entirely satisfactory. He vows to recommend these products to his circle of associates. He also commented on the excellent support and wonderful customer service that the company made available.
Purchasing a Tri- Spectrum Illuminator or Five-Band Grow Light
The only way to get an Illuminator is directly from the source. There you can review the variety of available sizes ranging from 90 watt UFO LEDs to commercial grade 350 watt Illuminator led grow lights. Applying the available information to the specific circumstances of a particular facility, a user can select the most appropriate grow light for the purpose.
