How to make your own top quality Led Grow Light Part - 1
What You Will Need.

Have you ever thought about making your own led grow light? Maybe you want to save some money, create a light with a custom spectrum or just have the pleasure of growing with a light you have designed and built!
This series of videos will show you how to make your own high quality led grow light at home at minimum cost and with equipment you either have or can buy for just a few €$£.

Total Cost is only €107.95 $120.00 or  £93.00!

The finished light will have a LED POWER of 75 to 80 watts which is ideal for a 50x50cm grow tent and of course you can make 4 to cover a 100x100cm tent.

It will be very high quality with Osram Oslon leds and a Mean Well power supply. DONT worry that the leds I have recommended have different beam angles, it will make no difference in use.

Spectrum is 5 Red/Hyper Red to 1 Royal Blue to 1 4000K White which will result in a rde/blue ratio of about 5.5:1 which is a good all round spectrum which will work well for both vegging and flowering. Feel Free to change it if you want, thats the fun of making your own light!

In this video will will cover the parts you need to make your light.

Choosing Leds and MCPCB´s
Tweezers and possibly Reading Glasses (the leds are small!)
Solder paste and applicators
Heat Sink Compound
Power Supplies
Aluminium Plate (putting it all together)


The following videos will show you how to put it all together (including DIY reflow soldering at  home!) and how to use your new skills to repair broken led grow lights by replacing faulty leds!
