What temperature should the Driver and heatsink for the light?

Are the MIGRO lights upgradeable?

Yes, they are. If LEDs improve in efficiency enough in the future to justify an upgrade you can replace the LED with a future generation model.

Do the MIGRO lights generate heat?

Yes, they do. The LED’s are the most efficient in the market but they still produce heat. They do not produce radiant heat from the bulb like High Intensity Discharge (HPS, MH etc) light bulbs but they emit heat through the heat sink. About 40% of the total power consumed by high efficiency LED’s goes to heat which is much less than HID which would emit about 70% of it’s consumed power as heat.

How do I control MIGRO grow lights?

Each Light is powered by an LED driver (a transformer that converts AC power from the socket to DC power for the LED). The LED driver can be plugged straight into a timer switch to control the on/off light cycle.

Can I use the MIGRO lights for all stages of plant growth, vegging and flowering?

Yes you can. The MIGRO light output is full spectrum, white light. The levels of each light spectrum is closely matched to sunlight and is ideal for healthy plant growth from seedlings to harvest.
