HLG R-Spec Series
A lineup of high-efficiency, passive-cooled LED grow lights featuring a full-spectrum white base with deep-red (660 nm) accents (and optional far-red on certain models), optimized for both vegetative growth and flowering across residential to commercial applications.
HLG’s R‑Spec series utilizes custom Quantum Boards® loaded with Samsung LM301H and Deep Red LEDs to deliver strong PPF and enhanced red spectrum tailored to boost flowering performance. Models range from compact 95 W fixtures (HLG 100 Rspec) to powerful 600–650 W units (HLG 600 Rspec, 650R), many offering optional dimming and reflector integration (HLG 320 Rspec FR). With passive cooling, auto‑sensing drivers, and wet-rated build, these fixtures deliver HPS-level results with reduced energy consumption, heat load, and maintenance needs. Efficiency ranges from ~2.41 to ~2.84 µmol/J depending on model.
