Maxibright Varidrive 720W LED and Varidrive Ballast

Product detailed description

Maxibright Varidrive 720W: powerful LED for areas up to 150 x 150 cm

Varidrive 720W is a segmented full-spectrum LED light for growers who need to illuminate a large area of 120 x 120 to 150 x 150 cm. Six individual LED bars deliver a total of 1870 µmol/s, while the enhanced red spectrum supports flowering. The light is lightweight and foldable, so it can be installed by one person. It is powered by the external Varidrive digital ballast, which is included in this set.

Requires a Varidrive ballast – included in the set

This light does not connect directly to a socket – it requires the Maxibright Varidrive 600W digital ballast, which is included with the product and supplied together with the light. The ballast also functions as a dimmer: it switches the light between 250, 400, 600 and 720 W (Boost), allowing you to adjust the output to the growth stage. The light cannot be switched on without the ballast, so there is no need to purchase one separately – this set already includes it.

Six LED bars and full spectrum for the entire cycle

The segmented construction with six individual LED bars is designed for an area of 120 x 120 to 150 x 150 cm. The full spectrum with an enhanced red component takes plants from vegetation through to flowering without the need to change the light source. The foldable frame and low weight make hanging and handling easier – you can fold the LED grow panel and one person can hang it from ceiling mounts.

Why choose the 720W Varidrive

720 W is the output for a large tent where a smaller panel is not sufficient for the area. Efficiency of 2.6 µmol/J keeps consumption within reasonable limits, while four-step dimming allows you to run at a lower output for young plants and save electricity until the plants need full power. The foldable, lightweight construction and 3-year warranty make the Varidrive a worthwhile long-term choice for a grower who wants one light to cover an area of up to 150 x 150 cm. You can find the entire range in the Varidrive section.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to purchase a ballast separately for the Varidrive 720W?

No. The Varidrive digital ballast is included in this set, and the light cannot operate without it – it powers the light and also functions as a dimmer. It is supplied with cabling. You are therefore buying a complete functional set: the light and ballast in one package, ready to hang and connect.

What size area is the Varidrive 720W suitable for?

The light is designed for an area of 120 x 120 to 150 x 150 cm. The six LED bars deliver a total of 1870 µmol/s, so it can cover a larger grow tent too. The specific coverage is affected by the hanging height and growth stage – in a smaller 120 x 120 cm tent it provides ample coverage, while on 150 x 150 cm you will use the full output.

What are the 250, 400, 600 and 720 W settings for?

The ballast allows the light to be dimmed in four steps. The lower 250 and 400 W settings are useful for seedlings and the vegetative phase, when plants do not need full output and you can save energy. The 600 and 720 W (Boost) settings are used during flowering, when plants make the greatest use of the light. The adjustment is made directly on the ballast.
