Arcadia Reptile - Jungle Dawn LED Bar - 22 Watts - 470mm (18.5”) - Complete Kit - Full-Spectrum LED - Easily Linked - Aids Natural Plant Growth - Increases Light Levels & Energy

Product Information

The Arcadia Reptile Jungle Dawn LED bar is sleek, bold, powerful, able to deliver the energy needed to allow plants to grow, and to cause active basking in Arid species by increasing visible light levels in terraria and vivaria. This clever system uses the very latest ‘Full-Spectrum High Output’ LED diodes to project up to a massive 141 lumens per watt. Place one on top of a mesh or fit it inside of an enclosure, wherever you decide to use yours, Jungle Dawn LED Bar will provide high levels of quality, energy rich light.

Yes they do, plants need to be exposed to every wavelength within the terrestrial electromagnetic spectrum and in natural-balance. Each wavelength is as vital as the next with each delivering suitable energy to a plant and maintaining optimum growth, if the total quantity of light is high enough. It emits very little heat, thanks to a solid metal heat sink, so it does not cause the enclosure to overheat or cause damage to live plants. This means the Jungle Dawn LED is both cost and energy effective as it is long lasting with a high performance. LED plant lights — The most energy efficient. Brightness varies depending on number of diodes, but generally LEDs outperform fluorescents. Fixture can get hot — best to have plenty of airflow to prevent overheating. JungleDawn LEDs produce all of the wavelengths of visible light in natural-balance without using separate coloured diodes. In this way each diode is ‘full-spectrum’ within its colour, and each provides the correct amount of red and blue within its projection. We could term unfiltered sunlight as being 100% Bioavailable, any alteration away from the sun is equal to a linear decrease in the % of Bioavailability of that light source.If a lamp produces light within a spectrum that is close to that of natural sunlight and has a high quantity (lumen output) it will have a high level of PAR. The higher the PAR the more energy there is to cause photosynthesis. Incredibly efficient, A energy rating means you can rely on long lasting and cost effective performance. Different plants need different amounts of light. For example, some plants prefer shade, while others are categorized as “full sun” and need as much light as possible. Shade plants need a minimum of PAR 100, and full-sun plants need a minimum of PAR 700. Carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and light are all essential to photosynthesis, which is the process that plants use to convert light energy into food that the plant can use, namely glucose. In photosynthesis, photons (light particles) trigger light-dependent reactions in the chloroplasts of plant cells. These chloroplasts contain a few different pigments 1 which act to capture light energy for use in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. These pigments are: The Arcadia Reptile JungleDawn-LED Bar is sleek, bold, powerful, able to deliver the energy needed to allow plants to grow, and to cause active basking in Arid species by increasing visible light levels in terraria and vivaria.

The Jungle Dawn LED can be used to enhance the colours of reptiles that do not require UV, and also alongside other Arcadia UV lighting for those that do. You can really show off the natural beauty of your terrarium or other enclosure to the maximum with this exciting light source. If you attempt to use a nearby window as a light source for the plants in your bioactive vivarium, this will also likely not be enough for the plants’ needs. Some extremely shade-tolerant plants such as pothos may tolerate this, but most plants will require a much stronger light for them to grow. Furthermore, placing a terrarium in front of a window incurs the greenhouse effect, in which the sun’s energy heats the air inside your vivarium, where it gets trapped. This easily creates a very hot environment, which can be life threatening to your reptile. How to Choose a Plant Light for Your Bioactive Vivarium Color Because of the pigments that plants contain, it’s best to use a plant light which produces plenty of the wavelengths that they specialize in absorbing. This is why LED lights with red and blue diodes are so popular, as most of these wavelengths are in the red and blue ranges.Plants require energy to photosynthesize and the Arcadia Reptile Jungle Dawn LED Bar with LumenIZE® control certainly provides energy! We have updated the spectrum and output of the Led diodes to create an even more accurate and brighter lamp, this means more PAR below the lamp. The LumenIZE® version of the globally trusted Jungle Dawn LED bar has been redesigned to provide smooth energy in line with Wild recreation through the simulation of Dawn until Dusk cycles. As a result, you can trust Arcadia Reptile LumenIZE® Jungle Dawn LED Bar to deliver unparalleled plant growth results whilst also greatly brightening the enclosure. We offer an extensive range of Arcadia Jungle Dawn LED plant growth lighting including Jungle Dawn compacts in 9W, 13w and 22w, the 40 Watt High Power Spotlight with internal cooling fan and the full kit Jungle Dawn LED Bars. We are sure to have the perfect LED solution for your requirements. Not just for Plant Growth JungleDawn LED BAR provides a spectrum of light that mimics as closely as possible the visible portion of natural sunlight.
