16” is a realistic distance. As a tent grower I want a light that has greater distribution at lower heights after stretch and during flower.

24" would probably be dimmed to 70% for beginners, 20" PAR chart is entering where you need the inputs locked in pretty well or it may be too much, and the 16" PAR chart is for someone who has full control of the environment: air flow, humidity, temperature, water, nutrients, pests & disease, media to accompany the light source, and also AC and possibly CO2, so professional setup for advanced gardeners and commercial facilities. All three have good uses, depending on the skill of the gardener.

3 is the best. Even light spread is so good and makes a big difference when using correctly (with a scrog as example) than having those high spikes in the middle and less than half on the sides

#3 looks the best. I think it's important to elaborate on how light power level impacts ppfd too. I would love to see a side by side of 3 at 100% and 50%. Yes realistically the values would be 50% but canopy depth or volume is changed with less power to the light. People with plant height limitations end up dimming lights to match ppfd demand and then see less yield in return.

Option 3- 24". Seem like more even light spred and still achieving over 600 everywhere

The 60cm one but that's a lot of space to plan in for the lamp

Yup. Go with 3. I recently buy the aray 500W and after learning so much about light last couple of years i find this the most usefull/important. (Since litle group grow on 1300PAR and the coverage is verry unequal)

I like to keep my lights up away from my plants as much as possible… #3 is the chart I’m looking for when it comes to hanging height.

24’ but I would like to see a chart of a 4 light set up, just like it would be set up in a tent to see if it gives an overall even set up

24, the rest are a bit hot in the center. Add warm to cool; however, the numbers are solid on the edges.

All of them. Shows the people who can’t afford or don’t want to test this light and what the best height would be. Awesome info as always

No.2 or even 1. It’s always nice have more power than needed so can cruise your light say 75%. If u mess up hang light little high can always turn little more juice to it to keep from having to move it. Some people don’t think about this and light is maxed 100% all the time. I say 2 one I want cause 5x5 light be the heaviest of all the lights also to have to move. And if run CO2 u need extra par.

I need your help please :) I am trying to gauge what is the most appealing PAR chart for the ARAY series. Here are 3 x PAR charts for the ARAY 750 in a 5x5 space at different heights. Which PAR chart do you like best? Thanks for talking the time to let me know, take care, Shane
