What is a Grow Wand?
Grow Wands are customisable. clip-on LED grow light kits that emit white, full spectrum light to give your indoor plants a light boost. The strong clip attaches to your plant shelf or table-top and the strong, flexible 'wand' arm can be positioned to direct light towards your plants that need a little extra TLC (that stands for Tender Lighting Care of course). Lights run cool to the touch and are water resistant for high-humidity environments.
Grow Wands are a complete kit designed to make the confusing world of grow lights much easier for indoor plant hobbyists. This kit includes everything you need to light up your plant shelves or cabinet, prop box or prop tank. The controller gives you 5 custom settings and a built-in timer (no app needed). Lights run cool to avoid burning delicate leaves. Great combination with a heat mat over winter.
What's in the kit?
- Single light wand with adjustable arm, controller, shelf clip + USB cord*
- Cool-touch, white, full-spectrum LED grow light chips
- Customisable with 5 brightness, 3 light intensity and 3 timer modes
*USB adaptor not included. Compatible with standard USB A plug adaptors or charging bricks, such as a standard phone or portable speaker adaptors.
Both Grow Wands and Grow Bars have a built-in timer so do not work with external timers. If you want an external timer to set the times you want lights to come on and turn off automatically using a plug timer or similar, a grow bulb (like Sansi) is the way to go instead.
What's a Grow Wand suitable for?
An easy solution when you need a light boost to get through winter, for lower light areas all year-round, or when you start getting into more high-maintenance plants, especially to keep up with the higher-light requirements of variegated plants. Also gives a light boost to help you propagate all year-round.
This kit is 'plug and play' with no fancy set-up, separate bulbs or light fittings needed. No adhesive tape or screws required. Simply 'clip and glow'. Plug in to the wall using your phone adaptor (or any standard USB A adaptor or charging brick)*
The strong clip attaches to shelves, bench tops and table tops up to 2.5cms thick. The built-in controller and timer gives you full control over run-time, light intensity, brightness and more.
Choose your custom settings
The Grow Wand comes with a built-in controller.
TIMER: Go manual for always on, or choose from 3 auto modes for 4 hours, 8 hours or 12 hours on.
INTENSITY: Choose from 3 light intensity settings. Low, medium or high*
BRIGHTNESS: Pick from 5 brightness levels. 20% - 40% - 60% - 80% or 100%.
*Intensity controls how many of the LEDS light up at once. Brightness can be set independently to intensity. You can 'mix and match' the above settings. For example: 8 hours, medium intensity, full brightness.
Measurements & materials
The wand measures 25cms long x 1.5cms wide. Just the light strips measure a smidge over 21cms long each (25cms total length includes the protective caps at either end). This kit comes with 1 wand. The adjustable arms each measure 29cms long. The USB cord* measures 1.5 metres long.
Low energy consumption with 18 LED full-spectrum chips per wand which use the newer-tech SMD 5730 LEDs for a wider angle of light and brighter output. The LED strips are encased in a tube to stay cool to the touch, and are water resistant for use in high humidity environments.
What's the light wavelength?
The light wavelength ranges from 400 to 840 nm depending on the settings you choose. Nm stands for nanometers, which measures the wavelengths of the light produced. Plants require light in the 400 to 700 nm range to photosynthesize, known as PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation). It's not the brightness (how it appears to us), but the PAR that matters to our plants.
What does full spectrum mean?
Full-spectrum doesn't mean sunlight. It refers to the CRI or Colour Rendering Index being over 90, meaning the light produced is much the same as how we see colours in our natural world lit by daylight. Although the traditional 'neon pink' grow lights that combine red and blue to produce a pinky-purple light, are focused on the red and blue spectrum that benefit plants the most to support growth, not everyone likes that pinky glow! Full spectrum grow lights provide the entire spectrum (including red and blue). Grow Wands light up cool-white.
