2024 is now behind us, and it's safe to say it's been quite a year for the LED Grow Light market! Thanks to some clever engineering, we're now taking full advantage of the economies of scale afforded by the staple 600w Digital Ballast - now able to power a wide variety of fixtures (instead of a Driver). This lower cost-of-entry has catapulted LED grow lights' popularity with the home hobby grower, pushing development and manufacturing costs of LED further down as a whole.

Now in 2025 we're spoilt for choice; with a huge range of high quality LED grow lights to suit all budgets there's something for everyone. Let's take a look at the very latest and best LED grow lights out there, starting with our Top Pick for 2025:

In the fast-paced world of indoor gardening, innovation is key to maintaining high yields and plant quality. Ultrabright PRO LED Grow Lights are setting a new standard in the industry with the latest advancements in technology designed to address some of the most common challenges faced by growers. Whether you're looking to improve the lower canopy of your plants or achieve exceptional overall growth, these lights offer unrivalled performance at an unbeatable price.

The Ultrabright PRO 150w Under Canopy LED Grow Light is a true game-changer for growers. Coming in at up to 3.2μmol/J efficacy, these lights are specifically designed to target the lower growth of your plants. Traditionally, the lower parts of the plant suffer from inadequate light during the flowering phase, leading to poor growth and wasted resources. In most cases, growers are forced to manually remove these lower areas to prevent them from draining energy from the plant.

However, the Ultrabright PRO 150w changes the game entirely. By delivering effective, targeted lighting to the lower half of the plant, this light ensures that every part of your plant is able to photosynthesise efficiently. This results in better quality, healthier lower growth that contributes to the overall increase in yield.

Key Features:

• Full Spectrum LED: These lights provide a full spectrum, with more red wavelengths to complement existing HPS and LED grow lights.
• Linkable: The lights can be linked up to 15 units together, allowing for flexible setups.
• IP65 Waterproof: Protected against high-humidity. splashes and spills, making them suitable to place low down.

Specifications:

• Wattage: 150w
• Efficacy: 3.2 μMol/J
• PPF Output: 480 μMol/s
• Lifetime: >50,000hrs
• Waterproof Rating: IP65
• Warranty: 1 Year

If you're working in a tighter space or need a more flexible option, the Ultrabright PRO 60w Under Canopy LED Grow Light offers the same outstanding performance but in a thinner, more affordable package. With an efficacy of up to 3.2μmol/J, these compact lights provide the perfect solution to poor lower growth in plants, increasing the quality and yield of your crop without requiring a huge investment.

Key Features:

• Full Spectrum LED: These lights provide a full spectrum, with more red wavelengths to complement existing HPS and LED grow lights.
• Linkable: Like the 150w version, the 60w light can be linked (up to 35 units) together, providing incredible flexibility in light setup. It’s perfect for growers who need to adjust their lighting to fit their specific plant or floor layout.
• IP65 Waterproof: Protected against high-humidity. splashes and spills, making them suitable to place low down.

Specifications:

• Wattage: 60w
• Efficacy: 3.2 μMol/J
• PPF Output: 192 μMol/s
• Lifetime: >50,000hrs
• Waterproof Rating: IP65
• Warranty: 1 Year

To perfectly pair your under canopy with larger overhead grow lights, we recommend using half the wattage of your main grow light for maximum effectiveness. For instance, 2 x 150w or 5 x 60w (300w total) Ultrabright Pro Under Canopy lights would complement a 600w LED grow light for optimal results.

For those looking to take their grow operation to the next level, the Ultrabright PRO 720w LED Grow Light offers unmatched performance. With an impressive 3.2 μMol/J efficacy, this light is perfect for providing deep canopy penetration and precise, uniform light distribution across your entire growing area. Whether you're growing in a 1.5m x 1.5m or a 1.2m x 1.2m space, the 720w light will saturate your entire canopy, ensuring that every plant receives the light it needs to thrive.

Key Features:

• Full Spectrum LED: With a combination of blue, red, and white light, this light mimics natural sunlight, promoting healthy growth at all stages.
• Dimmable Ballast: The Ultrabright 720w light includes a dimmable ballast with four different brightness settings, which is ideal for adjusting the light intensity based on the plant's growth stage. Check out our LED Hanging Height & Dimming Blog for a stage-by-stage guide.

Pair with Under Canopy Lights

For even more dramatic results, pair the 720w light with the Ultrabright Under Canopy LED lights. This will ensure that no part of your plant is left in the dark, giving you the ultimate control over every aspect of your crop.

Specifications:

• Wattage: 720w
• Efficacy: 3.2 μMol/J
• PPF Output: 2304 μMol/s
