AC Infinity IONFRAME EVO8 Specs and Circuit Load
The number that sells the EVO8 is its current draw, not its wattage. At 730W, AC Infinity lists 7.3A, which fits one 15A household circuit with room for fans. Input runs 100–277V, so the same fixture also drops straight into 240V or 277V commercial rooms. The frame is 44.09 x 44.48 x 3.38 in, the same footprint as the larger EVO10. It carries 2,688 diodes, and AC Infinity publishes every bin. That breaks down to 1,720 Samsung LM301H EVO at 3000K, 864 at 5000K, 88 OSRAM 660 nm, 8 OSRAM 730 nm and 8 Seoul 395 nm. Efficacy is 3.14 µmol/J, and the fixture carries a 2,013 PPFD manufacturer rating. Coverage is 5 x 5 ft in flower and 6 x 6 ft in veg. The body is IP65 sealed, and diodes are rated for 50,000 hours. A passive 7.16 x 1.57 in driver detaches so it can hang outside the canopy.
Running a 5x5 LED Grow Light on a Home Circuit
A 5x5 led grow light usually forces a choice between output and a second circuit, and this one avoids that. It shares its frame with the EVO10, so light spreads just as wide at a lower draw. That trade makes sense in a garage tent or a spare room where the panel has no spare breaker. AC Infinity's manual keeps the frame at least a foot over the canopy and controls intensity with dimming. Their guide is forty percent for seedlings, eighty in veg and full power in flower. Raise the frame if the tops fade or cup during the first weeks after flip. The schedule controller in the box handles timers, a clock mode and sunrise-sunset ramps. Several frames can run from one controller through splitter dongles in a larger room. The honest limit is intensity at the edges, which drops compared with the EVO10 at full power. Growers chasing the densest possible 5x5 canopy should look at the EVO10 instead.
Key Features
- 2,688-diode full spectrum: LM301H EVO whites with OSRAM reds and Seoul UV support every growth stage.
- Wide 44-inch frame: Spreads light to the edges of a 5x5 canopy for more even flowering.
- Single-circuit draw: Its current rating leaves headroom for fans on a standard 15A household line.
- Removable passive driver: Keeps driver heat outside the tent or canopy zone.
- Schedule controller included: Ten brightness levels, timer, clock mode and sunrise-sunset ramps.
- IP65 sealed body: Handles humid flower rooms and routine foliar spraying.
