Black Dog LED Adds Mid-sized BD240-U LED Plant Grow Light to Universal Series

Jan. 28, 2013 - PRLog -- Boulder, CO-- Following last years launch of the revolutionary Universal Series of indoor LED plant grow lights, Black Dog LED has added the mid-sized BD240-U to their line of innovative, high-output, quality-conscious indoor plant grow lights. The BD240-U puts out 240 true watts, placing it between the BDMicro-U and the BD360-U in terms of power. This panel will easily replace any 400 watt high pressure sodium (HPS) and metal halide (MH) light with increased yield and quality.

"We wanted to round-out our line," says Corey Drew, Founder and Co-Owner of Black Dog LED. "After we launched the BDMicro-U, we knew we needed to fill the gap between that [BDMicro-U] and the BD360-U." So too did Black Dog LED fans demand a mid-sized answer to 400 watt HPS and MH lighting; according to ellydee on the growing forum www.rollitup.org, the company "[needed] something in [the] gap" between the BDMicro-U and the BD360-U. The team at Black Dog LED answered those requests with the mid-sized and reasonably priced BD240-U.

Following in the footsteps of the existing models in the Universal Series, the BD240-U features all high-output 5w LEDs, large square housing to create a more uniform footprint, expanded internal volume combined with powerful fans in order to maximize airflow and cooling, and, of course, Black Dog LED's Proprietary Phyto-genesis Spectrum™ which eliminates the need for different lights for the different stages of photosynthesis, resulting in healthier, less stressed and higher yielding plants.

The versatile BD240-U weighs in at 20 lbs with dimensions measuring 13.5"x13.5"x4". Although those specs make for a modestly sized panel, there's nothing modest about the power and spectrum produced by the 96-diode panel of high-output 5 watt LEDs. The growers at Black Dog LED recommend using this light for vegetative growth before flipping your plants to flower under the BD700-U, as a full cycle light over a 2.5 square foot to 3.5 square foot growing area, or as a light source to make for some seriously healthy garden starts. The BD240-U's reasonable size and serious power make this the LED plant grow light of choice for mid-sized indoor grows.
