King Plus LED Grow Lights Review 2023 – How Good Is It?

The excellent thing about these lights is that they are stuffed with plenty of superb features and are sold at an affordable price. In this King LED review, I will discuss in detail what those features are and see if King Plus grow lights are indeed one of the best.

Design & Durability

Many people are saying that the grow lights from the King Plus series are loaded with great features. The company did not disappoint with the product’s design and durability.

Type of Lights Used

The company’s grow lights use full-spectrum 10W LED lights. This means the equipment is not only capable of providing different light spectrum, but it is also bright and intense. The full spectrum capability is important since cannabis plants will need different types of light in different stages of their growth.

The brighter and more intense light also means your plants will get optimal amounts of light. It will make it grow and develop better, and produce good yields.

LED Materials & Casing Construction

The grow lights from the King Plus series use Epistar chips for their LED light. The developer is one of the well-known LED chip manufacturers, which means you are assured that you are getting good quality LED lights (1). The company also uses Zener protectors for the LED lights to make sure that they will function individually without any problems.

For the LED’s casings, KingLED uses an all-aluminum casing, which increases its cooling capabilities. It is a durable casing that can withstand constant use and abuse. It is the perfect companion for the high-quality LED lights that the company offers.

Power Usage

The company offers several models in the King Plus series and each model will have different power consumption, based on its wattage and the number of LED lights it has. The King LED 1500w double-chip grow light, for example, consumes about 260w of electricity. This saves you more than if you were to use HPS/MH lamp.

With the King Plus double chip LED grow lights, you can expect the product to consume power efficiently. This is true even if the company is using 10W for its LED lights.

The power consumption you can expect from the cheapest product is only at 100W while the most expensive model in the series will only consume 615W, which is low compared to its wattage.

Safety Features

KingLED has equipped the grow lights from the Plus Series with an advanced cooling system. It uses an upgraded aluminum radiator and have high-speed muted fans to keep the light’s temperature in check. The advanced cooling system allows the light to operate optimally at lower temperatures. This will ensure that it will not get too hot and burn your plants or cause a fire.

Other Features

Because the grow lights from King Plus use very bright LED lights, the company includes protective glasses for you to wear. This will protect your eyes from the light’s brightness so you can go inside the tent even if the grow lights are on.

The grow light also has a lighting time setup so you set the timer for how long the light will stay on. This is a great added feature since it gives you full control of how long the lights should stay on based on different stages of plant growth.

Grow Light Sizes & Assembly

Sizes

The Plus Series from King LED comes in different sizes, providing you with options to meet your grow light needs. The company has small grow lights for beginners or for those who have a small garden. They also have large grow lights if you have a bigger garden.

The best model in this series is the King Plus LED 1200w. This model offers the best combination of price and features. It is also large enough for decent sized crops but not too big that it will require a larger tent. If you need something bigger, you can check out the King Plus 1500w Double Chips LED Grow Light.

Value For Money

The Plus Series from King LED is packed with great features that can help you with your indoor gardening. The best thing about this is that the grow lights in this series are all affordable, including the top of the line product that is available in this series.

You can expect to spend below $60 for the cheapest product in the series and less than $270 for the most expensive product. With a 3-year warranty and a good customer service team, you are definitely getting your money’s worth if you buy a grow light from KingLED.

Downsides

Though the King Plus Series is packed with features, not everything about is good. There are also downsides to the product and the company should try to address it to further improve their offering. 

• Some of the grow lights they offer do not really produce the wattage that they advertise. One example is the 1000W grow light, which is only equivalent to a 400W HID light.
• Some grow lights do not contribute to plant growth until crops have reached maturity. They can only provide light at the start and until a certain period. After that, you will need to add more grow lights to provide light for all your large plants.
• Timer setup can be improved. On several occasions, the LED light burned out faster than the timer. This is bad since cannabis plants are sensitive to light and getting the right amount at the right time is crucial in ensuring that they will grow and develop to produce good yields.

Who Should Buy This Grow Light?

The King LED grow light in the Plus Series is great for people who are just starting out. The product is packed with great features that are perfect for beginners, like bright and effective light intensity, a durable casing, and efficient power consumption.

You can expect the grow light to perform and function properly while you start with your indoor garden. The best part is that this product is very affordable. Even the top model in this series will not cost you $300, making it a great grow light for beginners and for people who have a tight budget. As mentioned above, this grow light is not recommended for people who have large crops unless they are willing to invest in multiple grow lights.

Final Verdict

I give the King Plus Grow Light a total score of 4.1 out of 5.

King LED grow lights are one of the best in the market, especially the Plus Series,. It offers great features like a durable casing, an advanced cooling system to keep the light’s temperature low and a bright and highly effective light to help you produce a good yield. The company also included great added features such as protective glasses to protect your eyes from the bright lights.

Of course, there are downsides with the product, chief among them is that some models don’t have the wattage that they advertised. You also need to deal with the possibility that the LED lights will shut down much faster than the allotted time you set it to burn. 

Nevertheless, the downsides are not huge enough to make you think twice about getting this product. The best part about the Plus Series grow light is that it is affordable and has a 3-year warranty.
