Description
One fixture, two ways to run it as your room changes
The Maxibright Varidrive 500W/1000W LED is a dual-mode, full-spectrum grow light built to run as a single 1000W fixture or split into two independent 500W LEDs. With a photosynthetic photon flux of 2700 umol/s and an efficacy of 2.7 umol/J, it delivers serious output over a 1.5m x 1.5m to 1.8m x 1.8m canopy. Each half has its own fully integrated driver, so there's no external ballast to manage whichever way you run it, and units link together as a grow expands.
Key Benefits
- 1000W total output (500W x 2): run split or combined, full-spectrum LED
- 2700 umol/s PPF and 2.7 umol/J PPE: top-tier photosynthetic output and efficiency
- Integrated driver in each half: no external ballast required
- Onboard dimming 25-100% plus RJ ports for external controller compatibility
- Passive cooling: no fans, silent operation
- Linkable, plug-and-play: add further units as coverage needs grow
Need a light that adapts as your layout changes?
Fixed-output fixtures leave growers stuck when a room is split into zones or a canopy grows unevenly. The Varidrive's split design solves this: each 500W half runs independently, so light can be repositioned or one half switched off without losing the other - useful for staggered canopies, propagation areas or simply adapting coverage as plants fill out.
How to Use
- Suspend the 8-bar fixture above the canopy for coverage of around 1.5m x 1.5m up to 1.8m x 1.8m, adjusting height as plants grow.
- Run both halves together for maximum output, or split into two 500W fixtures to cover separate zones.
- Set output with the onboard dimmer between 25 and 100%, or connect via the RJ port to an external lighting controller for automated dimming and scheduling.
- Link additional units as coverage needs increase.

Questions & answers
What area does it cover?
Around 1.5m x 1.5m up to 1.8m x 1.8m when run as a single 1000W fixture.
Can I split it into two lights?
Yes. It runs as one 1000W fixture or as two independent 500W LEDs, each with its own integrated driver, so you can light two zones or switch one half off.
Can I dim it?
Yes, from 25 to 100% on the onboard dimmer, or through the RJ port with an external lighting controller for automated dimming and scheduling.
Is it noisy?
No. It's passively cooled with no fans, so it runs silently.
How big and heavy is it?
The 8-bar frame measures 104 x 109 x 4cm and weighs 7.6kg.
