AC Infinity IONFRAME EVO6 LED Grow Light | 500W LM301H EVO, 4x4 ft

AC Infinity IONFRAME EVO6: 1,680 Diodes Over a 4x4

Search for the AC Infinity EVO 6 and this is the fixture you land on, the middle size of the IONFRAME line. Its frame spans 32.28 x 32.67 x 3.38 in, which leaves a hand's width of air to each side of a 4x4 tent. AC Infinity lists 1,680 diodes and gives the full breakdown. There are 1,074 Samsung LM301H EVO at 3000K, 540 at 5000K, 54 OSRAM 660 nm, 6 OSRAM 730 nm and 6 Seoul 395 nm. The warm-heavy white balance leans toward flowering, while still vegging plants cleanly. Efficacy is 3.14 µmol/J, and the manufacturer lists 1,991 PPFD for the fixture. It draws 5.0A at 120V from a 100–277V input. On a household circuit, that leaves room for an inline fan and a small dehumidifier. Coverage is 4 x 4 ft in flower and 5 x 5 ft in veg, with an IP65 body and 50,000-hour diodes. The 7.16 x 1.57 in driver is passively cooled and unclips for remote mounting.

Hang Height and Dimming for a 500W LED Grow Light

A common question on this 500W LED grow light is how far to hang it. AC Infinity's manual keeps it at least a foot above the canopy and leaves the rest to the dimmer. Their stage settings are forty percent for seedlings, eighty in veg and full output in flower. In practice, most tents land the frame somewhat higher in early veg and lower it as the stretch finishes. Watch the top leaves after each change. If they cup upward or fade, raise the frame or drop one step on the controller. The included schedule controller runs a clock, a timer and sunrise-sunset ramps without an app. Several frames can share one controller through splitter dongles as the grow expands. The UV and far red diode counts are small, so they finish the spectrum rather than drive a UV program. In a 3x3 tent this fixture is more light than you need, and the EVO4 is the better match.

Key Features

• 1,680-diode spectrum: LM301H EVO whites with OSRAM reds and Seoul UV carry plants from veg through harvest.
• Square bar frame: Spreads light evenly to the edges of a 4x4 instead of concentrating it in the center.
• Passive removable driver: Moves heat off the frame and out of the canopy zone.
• Schedule controller included: Ten brightness levels, timer, clock mode and sunrise-sunset ramps.
• Daisy-chain capable: Run multiple frames from one controller through splitter dongles.
• IP65 construction: Sealed body handles humid flower rooms and routine spraying.
