The VG80 LED T5 Grow Light is designed for seedlings, cloning, vegetable propagation, and indoor tropical plant cultivation, offering wide coverage and low power consumption. It features a full-spectrum design, using OSRAM chips, and has an IP65 waterproof rating, making it suitable for fast growth of clones and low DLI green leaf plants. It consumes less energy and costs less electricity than fluorescent T5 bulbs. Providing high-quality vegetable light, the VG80 promotes healthy plant growth.

  • Wattage - 80W (40W Each Light Bar)
  • Core Coverage: 4ft*2ft
  • Recommended tent size: 120x60cm

Features & Benefits

  • Energy-efficient: Capable of providing high light intensity with lower energy consumption, contributing to reduced electricity costs.
  • Long lifespan: Fewer tube replacements and maintenance costs.
  • Low heat generation: Unlike traditional fluorescent tubes, LED tube produces very little heat, aiding in maintaining indoor temperatures.
  • Compact design: Thinner than traditional T5 fluorescent tubes, making it easier to install on plant cultivation racks or in planting boxes.

Daisy Chain and Functional Diversity

The VG80's easy installation and ability to daisy-chain up to 20 LED lights make it convenient for commercial growers. It is also compatible with various indoor planting systems, including bottom, side, under-lighting, and top lighting, and can also solve slow growth and narrow leaves due to insufficient light in tall plants.

Optimized for Cloning and Vegetative Growth

The VG80 is a low DLI plant light designed specifically for vegetables, seedlings, and clones. With only 80 watts of power, its low heat output allows it to be hung at a lower height on plant racks without harming plants. Despite the low wattage, it can cover a large area and achieve the same effect with less energy consumption.

IP65-Rated Water Resistance

The VG80’s light panel is installed with a special transparent waterproof lampshade to protect the diode and circuit from moisture, ensuring that it can work properly in highly humid environments without shortening its lifespan. The interface of the VG80 is also made with a special waterproof treatment to ensure that the whole grow light is water-resistant.=

Cost-Effective Option and Maximum Production

While the VG80 can be used for seedling cultivation and cloning separately, however, if it is coupled with lights that are more suitable for the flowering stage along with adopting a cyclic planting method the VG80 can shorten the harvest cycle and maximize your yield.

A T5/T8/T12 Replacement and a Partner for Plant Racks and Stands

The VG80 is an optimal LED alternative for T5/T8/T12 fluorescent grow lights and provides effective, potent, and cool lighting performance on plant racks, plant shelves, and plant stands.


Mars Hydro VG80 Works Great For Growing Mushrooms

In the intricate world of mushroom cultivation, the role of lighting is paramount. But what is the best light for mushroom growing? The Mars Hydro VG80 LED grow lights have been specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of this niche. These lights not only provide the optimal spectrum and intensity for mushroom growth but also incorporate energy-efficient LED technology, crucial for long-term cultivation.

Specialized Light Spectrum for Mushroom Growth

Mushrooms thrive under a specific light spectrum, notably the blue light at the 400-500 nanometer wavelength range. This is where the Mars Hydro VG80 excels. They emit light within this spectrum, particularly beneficial during the crucial fruiting stage when mushrooms develop spores. This mimicry of natural daylight is vital as mushrooms grow best under conditions that closely resemble natural sunlight.

Mushrooms require a unique approach to lighting compared to typical plants. Most mushroom varieties need only minimal light, primarily to trigger the fruiting process. Both the VG40 and VG80 offer adjustable settings for light intensity and duration, allowing growers to provide just enough light to support mushroom growth without overexposure. This flexibility is crucial for maintaining the right balance of light for extended periods.

Not as great as I was hoping.
Size: Queen
I was hoping this was going to be my miracle pillow. I have had terrible neck pain for years. It arrived with too much stuffing. Removed some and it caused terrible occipital headaches. I’ve slowly been adding stuffing, hoping to find the right fit.

Finally a pillow that works – excellent neck support
Color: Crescent White, Size: Queen
After trying and spending money on several pillows over the years, this is the first one that has truly worked for me. What makes this pillow stand out is the adjustable fill. Being able to customize the height and firmness made a huge difference in finding the right level of support for my neck and shoulders. The crescent shape is also very comfortable and helps keep my head and neck properly aligned while sleeping. Since using this pillow, I have noticed a significant improvement in comfort, especially around my neck. It provides support without feeling too firm or too soft, and it maintains its shape well throughout the night. The quality of the materials is excellent, and the pillow feels durable and well made. I appreciate that it can be adjusted to fit different sleeping preferences rather than being a one-size-fits-all pillow. Pros: * Adjustable fill for a customized fit * Excellent neck and shoulder support * Comfortable crescent design * Maintains its shape well * High-quality materials Cons: * None so far Overall: This is the first pillow that has truly worked for me after trying many others. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for better neck support and a more comfortable night’s sleep.

Very nice pillow
Color: Cut-out White, Size: King
I was skeptical of spending this much money on a pillow, but so far I'm glad I did. It's very comfortable, and the shape does seem to help. I injured my neck/shoulder years ago, and I would wake up 1-2x per week heading slept wrong making my neck and shoulder stiff and painful in the morning. This pillow has so far prevented that. This pillow has also significantly reduced my snoring, according to both my Samsung watch and my wife. I'm a side sleeper. This pillow can be as firm or soft as you want since you can add or remove filling. It comes with a bag of extra filling just for that. I wouldn't say its cooling, but it certainly isnt too warm either. And I'm someone who sleeps hot. All in all, I'd buy it again.

this is it (hopefully), no chemical odor
Color: Original White, Size: Queen
Over the years, I have spent a lot of time and money buying pillows. I can never seem to find one that fits my needs. I thought this would be a good option to try because this came up as a top rated pillow from consumer reports. I really think this pillow might be the last pillow I ever need. I saw all the good reviews and I also read all the bad reviews. Pillows are very personal, and a pillow that works for one person may not work for the other person but, I decided to give this a try. I was so excited. This was on sale at Amazon and I got it same day. I have a lot of neck issues and pinched nerves so I thought this pillow would help. Once I took it out of the box, I fluffed it up by hand because I don’t have a dryer. Within 15 minutes the pillow was really fluffy. I tested it out. I’m a side sleeper. It didn’t work too well. I removed some of the stuffing which is luxuriously soft. And it seemed to be comfortable. This morning I woke up with a horrible neck and headache. So, I took a little more stuffing out. It seems to feel better now. This gives just the right amount of support. It doesn’t give too much pushback and it also doesn’t go flat. Yes, this will flatten out a little bit when you lay your head on it, but not completely to the mattress flat. I fluff it up before I go to bed and it works great. I think I have it at just the right thickness but we will see how it goes. Surprisingly, it was not too hot for me like others have reported. I do have a temperature control system on the bed so maybe that’s why the pillow temperature didn’t bother me as much. I did not have any pain in my ears from sleeping on a hard pillow. That was a big plus. It gives Justin enough support and not too much pressure so it’s perfect. The outer shell is really nice. The shell and zippers seem to be good quality. I still use a genuine silk pillowcase because I like it. I think this is my forever pillow. I will add an update after I use it for a while if anything changes. I am hoping for good durability. Last thing, this also comes with extra stuffing if you like your pillow, extra high, or if your pillow starts to go flat, you have more stuffing to put in it. Putting your pillow out in the sun or in the dryer once every couple of months will help to keep it fluffy. I don’t think I would ever wash the foam on the inside. There’s no reason for that. The outer shell is what’s going to get most dirty. Just know, I liked it so much I bought another one immediately.

Rediscoving the Great Qualities of this Pillow (after Originally Rejecting It)
Color: Original White, Size: Queen
I recently 'rediscovered' this pillow... having purchased it a year or so ago, when neck + shoulder issues prevented me from being very happy with *ANY* pillow! Believe me, I tried so many! Back then, after repeatedly adjusting the fill of this COOP queen-size pillow, I ultimately stashed the whole thing in a closet. But now, it has unexpectedly re-entered my life... and I'm finally liking it. It helps that I've resolved most of the neck + shoulder issues (thanks to a year of PT). Plus. I realized that I had removed way too much fill... leaving about as much support as a pile of gently scrambled eggs. So, now that I'm in much better condition and have added back a lot of fill, I'm finding this pillow quite satisfying... yes, actually good! These days, I wake up each morning with a much happier neck. I do not. however, use the thick, quilted, zippered outer cover that came with it... as I find that stiffens + firms up the pillow a little too much for my taste. So, on top of the thinner, stretchy, zippered inner cover (also provided with the pillow, to contain the fill,) I've replaced the quilted outer cover with a jersey-stretch, zippered, cotton pillow protector. which is lighter weight and more malleable. As a person who has been traveling for years—by necessity—with a personal pillow from home, I'm now recognizing the extra advantages of this COOP pillow: For travel, its parts all compress well + easily (while for sleeping, the fill is light + lofty, but also supportive, as long as you don't remove way too much). And the pillow's components all readily come apart, so they can be packed separately...even the stuffing can be separated into smaller zip-lock packets, if needed—meaning there's never a need to squish an entire, impossibly big, somewhat dense pillow into a suitcase (or even a compression sack). Quick + easy to disassemble and reassemble. Really, the COOP can be treated as a build-your-own pillow (remember, I changed out the zippered outer cover and adjusted the stuffing volume to my own prefences). It's not cheap, but these days, remarkably, it's doing the trick for me. So glad I didn't get rid of it.
