Engineered for multi-tier cultivation. This T8 LED grow light pairs a thick aluminum chassis with a high-transmittance PC cover for efficient thermal management. Driven by a high-voltage, flicker-free system, it delivers stable and customizable illumination.
Customizable Plant Spectrum
Thick Aluminum Housing
180V–265V Flicker-Free Driver
Waterproof / Non-waterproof Options
Flexible Configurations: 60cm (8W) / 90cm (15W) / 120cm (32W)
High PPE for Efficient Plant Lighting
Our T8 LED grow lights offer PPE options of approximately 2.2–2.7 μmol/J, converting more electrical power into photosynthetic photons.
At the same power, a 2.2 μmol/J fixture can deliver more PPF than a 1.8 μmol/J fixture. To reach the same PPF target, a higher-PPE fixture may require less input power.
In vertical farms, hydroponic systems and multi-tier growing racks, lights may operate for 12–18 hours a day. When many fixtures run together, higher PPE can help reduce electricity use over time. Lower input power for the same target light output can also reduce the heat added by the lighting system and help ease the cooling load.
More Light Output in a Compact Growing Space
For fixed-length fixtures and limited rack space, higher PPE can help deliver more PPF within the available power range. This is useful for compact growing racks and multi-layer systems where fixture size and light output both matter.
Applications for T8 LED Tube Grow Lights
Designed for commercial growing environments requiring uniform, energy-efficient lighting for propagation, supplemental lighting, and multi-layer cultivation.
Vertical Farming
High-efficiency lighting for multi-layer indoor growing systems. Delivers uniform light distribution to support consistent crop growth while maximizing cultivation space.
Seedling Propagation
Provide supplemental lighting for vegetable, herb and flower seedlings during propagation and early growth. For guidance on setting a daily light schedule, read our guide to how many hours grow lights should be on for seedlings.
Greenhouse Lighting
Provides reliable supplemental lighting during low-light conditions, helping improve plant growth consistency, extend growing seasons, and support healthier crop development.

Spectrum & Size Options
T8 tubes with different lengths and spectral outputs.
What can we customize?
Tailored Spectrum
We engineer specific light recipes utilizing high-efficiency 2835 or 3030 LED chips. Spectrum configurations—including full spectrum, precise red/blue ratios, and UV/IR integration—can be fully customized to match the photosynthetic demands of leafy greens, sprouts, and fruiting crops across different growth stages.
Tailored Fixture Lengths
Engineered with a thick aluminum chassis for efficient thermal management and a high-transmittance PC cover.
While our standard sizes include 60cm, 90cm, and 120cm, the physical housing dimensions can be precisely customized to integrate seamlessly into your specific multi-tier racking systems and vertical farming infrastructure.
Tailored Power Rating
Driven by a stable 180V–265V high-voltage, flicker-free system. Beyond our standard 8W, 15W, and 32W options, the drive current and wattage can be precisely adjusted to hit your target PPFD.
This ensures optimal PPFD delivery for close-canopy cultivation without the risk of leaf burn.
FAQs of T8 Grow Light
What lengths and wattages are available for the T8 series?
Standard configurations include 60 cm at 8 W, 90 cm at 15 W, 120 cm at 32 W and 150 cm at 30 W. Custom lengths and wattages are available.
Can I customize the spectrum for my crops?
Yes. Spectrum options can be customized for your crop and growing requirements. Contact us with your crop type, growing stage and rack layout so we can discuss a suitable configuration.
Are these T8 tubes suitable for high-humidity hydroponic environments?
Yes. We provide both waterproof and non-waterproof options. The waterproof configuration, combined with the thick aluminum chassis and high-transmittance PC cover, is designed specifically to withstand the high-humidity and demanding conditions of automated vertical farms.
Can I use regular fluorescent lights to grow plants?
Some fluorescent lights can support plant growth, but their output and spectrum differ from LED grow lights. Learn more about using regular fluorescent lights to grow plants.
Should I choose a T5 or T8 grow light?
The right format depends on your fixture dimensions, rack layout and lighting requirements. Compare T5 and T8 grow lights to see which format may suit your setup.
How efficient are the T8 LED grow lights?
PPE options range from approximately 2.2 to 2.7 μmol/J. The 150 cm, 30 W model measured 2.2779 μmol/J PPE and 69.909 μmol/s PPF.
What is the MOQ, lead time, and warranty for OEM/ODM engineering orders?
For standard OEM integration (logo, branding), the MOQ is 100–500 pcs. For tailored spectrums or custom physical dimensions (ODM), the manufacturing lead time is within 2 weeks. All fixtures meet CE, RoHS, and FCC standards, and are backed by a 1-year warranty.
