- Clamp lamp

- Ceramic lamp holder

This range has been made to provide high light volume to targeted or large areas. Little choice has been available to the reptile market in this department. Larger and more elaborate planted setups are now appearing on various social media platforms. Brave new ideas, with more demanding plant selections, that up until this point have had problems trying to find a suitable lighting solution without the heat and running cost associated with other types of lighting. 

As mentioned in previous articles, we know plants use light for photosynthesis and development. This light is described as PAR (photosynthetic active radiation) the amount of light between 400 and 700nm used for photosynthesis. This is measured in micromoles (µmol), a measurement of photons, which are particles of light and can be easily measured by a good quality PAR meter. General plant growth requires a minimum of 50 to 200 µmol/m²/s depending upon the type of plants you are growing and how much light they require. Usually, the more light you provide the better the plants will grow. This said there is a limit beyond which they are unable to use any more light and this is around 500 µmol/m²/s.

The 25w spot is for medium size planted set ups and has a 25° beam angle.

The New Dawn spot range are powerful, high output LEDs for large enclosures or high light demanding plants. This power can be very helpful if used on mesh topped vivariums or for covering larger distances.

The 25w model utilizes a tried-and-tested, heavy-duty aluminum heatsink casing, allowing heat to be efficiently dispersed from your LEDs, prolonging their life.

Having a color temperature of 6500k has been proven to promote the best vegetative growth for most plants, used because plant growth is induced by the bluer end of the natural light spectrum. Natural sunlight ranges from 2700 and 7000 Kelvin. For the volume of light being produced these are still very low wattage saving you money on running costs.

The New Dawn spots and floods also have a high color rendering index (CRI), showing your plant’s and inhabitant’s true vibrant colors.

New Dawn are a safe and reliable way to illuminate your enclosures in a natural clean light and have the benefit of promoting explosive plant growth with low power consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions/Common Concerns:
