The DimLux Expert Series 315W Full Spectrum CMH is a complete fixture including the Alpha Optics reflector. The DimLux reflector is designed according to the Single Bounce Clear Sight (SBCS) principle and is equipped with Miro Silver mirrors. As a result the highest possible efficiency (98%) of all available horticulture reflectors is achieved.
Optimal Flow, Less Heat, More Light!
Adjustable side reflectors provide better light overlap and to minimizes any losses at a wall. Passive cooling from the open design of the reflector extends and ensures prime temperature conditions for the life and efficiency of the lamp. 50mm socket on the reflector which can be used to significantly reduce the room temperature by actively extracting the air. Optional add-on reflectors available which be placed to minimize the wall loss even more. Reflector is replaceable.

Dimlux Xtreme Ballast
The Dimlux Xtreme Ballast gives you 7 separate dim options – considerably more than any other competing product – so you can precisely alter light output to match the changing demands of ever-developing plants. Two boost settings are available for generating up to 15% extra lumens than is advertised on the lamp, and the Soft Start and Soft Off features to ensure you don’t get sudden surges of power when switching between “on” and “off” modes, protecting the product and upholding your safety. Utilizing superior electronic technology, the Xtreme Ballast operates very quietly and very efficiently, promising to save you money over time on your energy bills. It is reassuringly fireproof, employing a built-in processor to monitor the ballast-to-lamp connection and an LED display to inform you of the operating status, cutting the power in the event of a bad contact or short circuit. Output levels can be switched between the following settings: Soft-Off, 165W, 205W, 245W, 280W, 315W, 345W, 380W. With 7 settings, you have the flexibility to tailor your lighting to your plants demand based on environmental conditions in the grow area, ensuring that temperature stay well within range.
Alpha Optics 98 Reflector
The Alpha Optics 98 Reflector has been made from mesmerizing 98% reflective Miro Silver aluminum. Crafted in a unique and effective manner, it only lets light waves hit the mirror-like surface of the interior on one occasion before projecting them downwards to cover over your plants. The light is also steered clear of any unnecessary and unwanted interactions with the lamp, minimizing overall wastage. These two aspects conform to the Single Bounce Clear Sight principle (SBCS). Both sides of the reflector can be adjusted to manipulate the distribution of light and there are optional add-on reflectors for stopping light from hitting walls instead of floor space. The open nature of the Alpha Optics 98 Reflector helps with the passive cooling of the lamp, improving its efficiency and overall lifespan. A 50mm port on the top of the unit actually allows you to extract the hot air away from around the lamp – a smart inclusion and standout feature.
Dimlux Ceramic-Discharge Metal Halide Lamp
Dimlux CDM fixtures utilize ceramic-discharge metal halide lamps to produce a light spectrum that's much broader than other forms of HID lighting (like standard metal halides and HPS). Its output is more comparable to the light produced by LEP (light emitting plasma) units. LEPs actually have a slightly broader spectrum than the CDM fixture, but they simply do not compare in terms of brightness. You can see with your own eyes, as soon as you turn this Dimlux unit on, that it’s every bit as bright as its equivalent wattage in HPS, giving you the best of both worlds – a unit that delivers an LEP-style spectrum combined with HPS-style intensity! A truly exceptional all-rounder that will add much to the quality and size of your harvest. The lamp is optimized for the bloom phase with enhanced reds, but, because it's full-spectrum, it will produce the goods in both veg and flower – expect to see increased growth rates, tighter internodes, an improvement in overall vigor and an increase in final weight. Because of its full-spectrum, it's also great for the vegetative stages, triggering rapid growth, speeding up turnover times and increasing the overall efficiency of your indoor garden. With a healthy level of white light (at roughly 3100K) internodes stay nice and tight, eliminating the issues with stretch that occur when using lighting with narrow, inadequate spectrums. Come harvest time, you'll be left wondering what you did without one!
