Light is easy to use, timed and does improve conditions of your plant. It's not professional advice but it's worked for me. My window sill plants which get few hours of the light they deserve are now happier!
Regular daylight bulbs in a clamp light really work for houseplants. The bulb has a timer that you set once and it comes on the same time everyday.
It fits into a normal medium sized table lamp. The lamp is propped up on a few books so that it is above the plants a little. I ordered two for my plant room's recessed can light fixtures, they are work/fit perfect.
The bulb has a built in timer with three settings. The timer setting is easy and convenient to use as well. Memorizing the button presses would help with that, but placement elsewhere on the bulb should be considered.
After 7 hours each time, the bulb was still lit. Google tells me this is not the most efficient plant light color. But everytime i try to use the timer function it turns off after about a minute and wont go back on.
Chrome is more reflective than black. They score very high on my ppfd meter and my lux meter. The aluminum wings are a bit flimsy though.

Everything fits together well and the arrived very quickly. For storage on top of the shelf, get apple boxes from your local grocery store for free. We collectively waste thousands of hours of time that could be spent growing plants that make the worl... Read More
The lights are connected to a timer to have them on 16 hours a day and off for 8. Each power cord also has an on/off switch if you want to use them without a timer. I run two different timers so all the lights are on for 8 hours but overlap for a port... Read More
These lights work well for a shop or garage but they don't give off sufficient light to grow plants. My light meter needs to be 2” under the grow light to get a reading thats comparable to full sunlight. Poorly packaged. No instructions or paperwork.
