Use the SanLight M-Dimmer for precise adjustment. Supplement with the Easy-Tilting rotation system to homogenize the light. Feel free to gradually adjust according to the plants' reactions to find the right balance without exceeding the natural absorption capacity without CO2 input.
- Can the light intensity be adjusted with the included dimmer to adapt the lighting according to the growth stages in a 120x120 tent?The SanLight EVO 4 Set 120x120 lamp does not include a dimmer in its standard pack. However, you can regulate the light intensity by adding the SanLight Magnetic Dimmer sold separately. It offers 4 intensity levels (100%, 80%, 60%, 40%) and each lamp requires its own dimmer connected to a dedicated socket. This allows you to adjust the lighting according to the growth stages in your 120x120 tent, thus optimizing the development of your plants.
- What is the real impact of using the dimmer on thermal management and electricity consumption when using the two SanLight EVO 5 120 lamps in a 120x120 tent?
Using the dimmer on SanLight EVO 5 120 LED lamps in a 120x120 cm tent has a direct and beneficial impact on thermal management and electricity consumption.
By reducing the power to levels like 80%, 60%, or 40%, electricity consumption decreases proportionally: lowering to 60% results in approximately 40% energy savings. This allows you to precisely adjust the power according to the actual needs of your plants, avoiding electricity waste.
On the thermal side, less power means less heat generated. The EVO lamps, already equipped with excellent heat sinks, further reduce their heat output in dimmer mode, which helps maintain an ideal temperature in the tent. This also reduces the load on your cooling system, optimizing the growing environment.
In summary, the dimmer provides precise control over power and heat in a confined space like a 120x120 tent while enhancing energy efficiency and luminaire longevity.

- Total electricity consumption for 2 Evo 5-120 in a 120x120 cm tent in watts and light yield in umol per joule. What are the possible optimizations for minimal consumption regarding the use of the dimmer and CO2 management?
For two SanLight EVO 5-120 lamps in a 120x120 cm tent, the total electricity consumption is approximately 530 W (2 × 265 W). This system delivers a very efficient light yield, exceeding 3 µmol/J, with a total photon flux close to 1450 µmol/s.
To minimize consumption, it is advisable to use the magnetic dimmer provided with the lamps, which allows for precise adjustment of light intensity. This is particularly effective for reducing consumption during less demanding growth phases such as young plants or cuttings.
Regarding CO₂ management, these lamps are optimized to operate without external CO₂ addition. Avoiding injection helps limit overall energy consumption. If CO₂ is added, the light must be increased via the dimmer, which will raise consumption. Smartly adjusting the light power using the dimmer is therefore key to efficient and economical cultivation.
- What is the best way to synchronize the use of the dimmer with the light cycles to optimize growth in a 120x120 tent with 2 EVO 5-120 lamps without the risk of overheating?
To synchronize the use of the dimmers on your two SanLight EVO 5-120 LED lamps in a 120x120 cm tent, the best approach is to equip each lamp with its own magnetic dimmer. This allows for precise control of light intensity at 100%, 80%, 60%, or 40%, enabling you to adjust the power according to the growth phase and limit the heat emitted.
During the vegetative growth phase, reduce the intensity to 60-80% to lower light stress and temperature. In the flowering phase, you can switch to 100% if the ambient temperature remains stable. To avoid overheating, do not neglect a good ventilation system with an extractor and air circulation, ideally controlled by a thermostat to automate extraction based on heat.
Finally, take advantage of the "Sunrise" feature of the magnetic dimmers to simulate gradual sunrise and sunset, which promotes a gentle light transition and better comfort for your plants.
Key summary: one dimmer per lamp, adjust intensity according to phase, ensure effective ventilation, activate the Sunrise function, and monitor temperature and plants.
