SANlight EVO 5-150 LED Grow Light | 340W Full Spectrum for 150x150cm Tents Australia

The SANlight EVO 5-150 is an Austrian-engineered 340W full spectrum LED grow light built for 150x150cm indoor growing spaces. At 915 µmol/s PPF across a 2.25m2 footprint, it delivers the highest photon output in the SANlight single-fixture EVO range, with the same passive fanless cooling, IP65 protection, and 3-year manufacturer warranty that defines the entire EVO Series. For commercial growers and serious home growers running a 150x150cm tent, this is the purpose-built fixture for that specific footprint.

Why the EVO 5-150 Is Different From the EVO 5-120

Both the EVO 5-120 and EVO 5-150 draw 340W and produce 915 µmol/s PPF. The difference is physical form factor and optic configuration. The EVO 5-150 has a longer physical footprint specifically designed to distribute photons evenly across 150x150cm. Running an EVO 5-120 in a 150x150cm tent concentrates light in the central 120x120cm area and leaves the perimeter underlit, which produces uneven plant development and edge stretching. The EVO 5-150 eliminates this by matching the fixture geometry to the canopy geometry.

Running Costs and CO2 Considerations

At current Australian electricity rates of 30 to 35 cents per kWh, the EVO 5-150 running 12 hours per day through a 10-week cycle consumes approximately 286 kilowatt-hours, costing around $90 to $100 in electricity for the light alone. Compared to a 1000W HPS covering the same footprint, the electricity saving is substantial across multiple cycles per year.

At 915 µmol/s across 2.25m2, the EVO 5-150 delivers approximately 700 to 800 µmol/m2/s at canopy level, which approaches the upper end of the productive range for most crops at standard atmospheric CO2. For growers running elevated CO2 above 1000 ppm, this intensity is ideal. For growers not using CO2, the EVO 5-150 is still within the productive range and the passive cooling makes heat management in Australian conditions significantly easier than with HPS at equivalent output.

What the EVO 5-150 Pairs With

The EVO 5-150 is matched to the HOMEbox Ambient Q150+ with PAR+ reflective lining for maximum light utilisation across the full 2.25m2 canopy. For environmental monitoring, the Bluelab Combo Meter provides complete nutrient solution management for the larger reservoir volumes typical in 150x150cm systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the SANlight EVO 5-120 and EVO 5-150? Same wattage and PPF output, different physical form factor. The 5-150 has a longer fixture specifically designed for 150x150cm canopy coverage. Running a 5-120 in a 150x150cm tent leaves the perimeter underlit. The 5-150 distributes light evenly across the full footprint.

Do I need CO2 with the EVO 5-150? No, but it is compatible with CO2-supplemented grows. At standard atmospheric CO2, the 5-150 operates within the productive intensity range for most crops. CO2 supplementation allows plants to utilise higher PPFD productively and can improve yields further, but is not required for strong results.

Can two EVO 5-150 fixtures be used together? Yes. Daisy-chain support and waterproof commercial-grade connectors allow multiple EVO fixtures to be linked and controlled together, which is the recommended approach for large commercial spaces beyond 150x150cm.

Where is the SANlight EVO 5-150 made? Designed and manufactured in Vorarlberg, Austria, with Osram and Seoul Semiconductor LED components.
