DEva 1000W DOUBLE-ENDED CMH

Growers know—life starts with light. Every gram, ounce or pound of produce generated from your indoor garden or climate controlled grow room begins with a photon of light. Plants use this crucial input energy (also known as photosynthetically active radiation or PAR) to capture and transform carbon dioxide into plant-usable carbohydrates—the building blocks of life.

When cultivating crops indoors in controlled growing environments, the quality and intensity of the PAR that you deliver to your plants largely determines both the medicinal and nutritional quality and quantity of the harvest. These precious photons form the “fuel” in the engine of your grow room.

In today’s increasingly competitive marketplace, progressive growers are constantly searching for techniques or technology that can help to differentiate them from the pack.

So why not start with quality and intensity of the light itself?

HOW DOES THE DEva STACK UP?

MOST ENERGY EFFICIENT – How important is saving electricity to you? The DEva Silent Square Wave produces more light while utilizing less electricity.
MORE LIGHT – Worlds brightest DE uses less electricity than all of our competitors.
REFLECTOR DESIGN – Many DE reflector designs waste light on the walls, ceiling and through inefficient light distribution. RevMicro’s Double Elliptical reflector design produces more even light distribution and avoids the classic DE hot spot.
LESS HEAT – Less Heat is essential for healthy plant growth, heat sinks run so cool you can touch them. Using our advanced Silent Square Wave technology we’ve reduced acoustic resonance, RF and heat you see with classic high frequency DE designs like Gavita.
LOWEST FAILURE RATE – Of any horticultural light on the market at 0.01%. Growers know that out 100 new ballasts they can expect and accept that they will lose anywhere from 8 to 15 of them. Not anymore. Instead of expecting RMA’s you can expect zero problems. If you do have one we’re known for the best technical support in the industry. Same day support, even on holidays.
QUALITY BUILD – 36 Year part life, aerospace-grade design, no sheet metal, sharp edges or hot heat sinks. All digital smart controls. Built for the needs of professionals, ethical industrial scale growers.
HIGHEST RATED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION – Fastest growing lighting brand in horticulture.
INTELLIGENT CONTROLS – Our RevMicro all digital lighting controller not only had the industries easiest interface but it can also handle 512 lights in two separate zones!
LOW PROFILE DESIGN – Eliminates issues with tight ceiling spaces.
FIELD REPAIRABLE – Say goodbye to RMA’s and hello to removable PC boards. You’ll be up and going in under 20 min by simply removing 4 screws and popping in a new board.

A COMPLETELY INTEGRATED LIGHTING SOLUTION

Pioneering indoor horticulturalists have historically been forced to mix and match different components, often sourced from several manufacturers and suppliers, to create a complete indoor horticultural lighting system. Fortunately, thanks to DEva, those days are behind us.

DEva is a completely integrated, plug n’ play, no-compromise plant lighting solution. Our state-of-the-art, low-frequency square wave electronic ballast is built right into the reflector. The reflector houses a Cultilux double-ended 1000W CMH lamp—which comes included. All you have to do is plug it in and start growing.

Build Quality

Arguably it’s not just DEva’s performance that sets it apart from the competition but the quality of its components. We designed and sourced everything from the ground-up, from the avionic-grade capacitors (rated for thirty-six years of continuous operation) to the 97% reflective German aluminum in the reflector. The low-frequency square wave produced by the DEva electronic ballast perfectly drives the Ushio DE-HPS lamp with virtually no electromagnetic interference (EMI) or acoustic resonance issues that plague so many other electronic ballasts. All Revolution Micro products are manufactured at a state-of- the-art, ISO-certified manufacturing facility in Thailand. Quality, consistency and reliability drive everything we do.

Revolution Digital Lighting Controller

Raw power and lighting intensity is nothing without smart control. That’s why we concurrently developed the world’s smartest grow light controller—the RLC-1. While the DEva can work with your existing lighting controller, the RLC-1 can simulate sunrise and sunset, gradually warming up your plants just as Mother Nature does. It also features brown-out / black-out detection and timing for optimal light restart, a built-in clock and 30-year rated battery backup.

Crucially, the RLC-1 can even sense when temperatures in your indoor garden are too high and can automatically respond by dimming your HPS lamps or switching off your CMH lamps thereby mitigating environmental stress and crop damage. CMH lamps, by their physics, should not be dimmed. The RLC-1, when set to CMH mode, will turn the lamps on and off and will prevent the grower from accidentally trying to dim a CMH lamp, possibly damaging it.

The RLC-1 connects with up to 512 DEva 1000W grow lights (spread across two zones) using “buy them anywhere” standard telephone cables.

Cultilux 1000w CMH DE Lamp

For veg room or mixed spectrum use, the Cultilux 1000w CMH lamp is a perfect fit for our Silent Squarewave DEva driver. Available as a DEva factory option for a $30 upgrade, or packaged separately for $129 each.
