Description
The Maxibright Large Parabolic wide angle, umbrella shaped reflector has a high gloss white powder coat finish. Ideal for use with grow tents to give an even distribution of light. The lamp is fitted in a vertical burning position which means the light that comes out of the lamp is spread and reflected evenly across the surface of the shade. The large version of this shade measures 1000mm across. (around 39 inches in old money!)
Lamps that sit horizontally have a slightly larger effect along the plane of the bulb which makes them more effective one way than at 90 degrees to it. If you are growing in a square or round area, it is ideal to have the light as even as possible. Also with horizontal lamps, half of the light that leaves the lamp goes upwards and onto the reflector. This means it loses a fair amount of its intensity and so overall efficiency goes down. Vertical lamps have an even spread and an even reflection, making them a great option for indoor gardeners.
