I noticed that the Mars LEDs looked more yellow while wearing the Vivosun glasses in the tent. I'm curious to know what this means regarding the LEDs. The SF uses Samsung LM301B diodes and a Meanwell ballast. The Mars I believe uses a magnetic ballasts (just based on weight and the fact there are 2 ballasts for the SFW2000 model) and Epistar LEDs. Any of you electronic/light savvy individuals out there know what to make of this?

Since reading a bit more and having a chance to lift a Meanwell driver I'm pretty sure the Mars driver is not a magnetic ballast just a proprietary electronic driver. From what I've read magnetic ballasts are not adjustable. Both the Spider Farmer and the Mars are adjustable. And a Meanwell driver is about as hefty as a Mars driver. Still not sure why the difference in color when wearing the Vivosun glasses. They both look bright white without them. -
The Mars LED can come with the meanwell or a generic driver, both are adjustable. I am sure there is yellow in the spectrum and those lens pick it up, just a guess.Comment
