Darwin Evo 660W LED – Evocrop · Full Spectrum & Built-in Timer

The Darwin Evo 660W LED by Evocrop is the definitive lighting system designed to maximize your harvest, offering you professional efficiency of 2.9 µmol/J and total control over the spectrum without generating excess heat. This panel not only replaces traditional 600W HPS systems but surpasses them, providing a light quality that mimics the sun to boost terpene production and bud density.

Is your indoor setup causing you stress due to heat and noise?

We know the feeling: you want to grow quality, but traditional lights turn your room into an oven, forcing you to install noisy extractors that compromise your discretion. On top of that, managing external timers and messy cables makes you feel like you are constantly improvising, fearing that a failure could ruin months of work.

This lack of control generates unnecessary anxiety. High temperatures burn the aromas of your flowers, and the constant hum of fans can attract unwanted attention. You shouldn't have to choose between a heavy yield and your peace of mind, nor should you have to be an electrical engineer to set up your lighting schedule correctly.

The Darwin Evo 660W LED is the tool that puts you back in the driver's seat. Thanks to its passive dissipation technology and integrated computer, you eliminate heat and noise problems at the root, ensuring a safe, cool, and perfectly automated environment for your plants.

More discretion, fewer worries

Discretion is key in any Indoor Grow, and the Darwin Evo V2 is designed to be the stealthiest component of your setup. Unlike HPS ballasts that hum or fans that roar, this LED panel features a passive heat dissipation system. By using high-quality Aluminum 6063, it releases heat naturally without the need for internal fans, meaning zero noise coming from the lamp.

Furthermore, because it emits significantly less radiant heat towards the plants, you won't need to run your extraction system at maximum power all the time. This drastically reduces the overall noise level of your grow room, allowing you to keep your hobby private and avoiding disturbances to neighbors or housemates.

Control over the experience

The Darwin Evo V2 isn't just a light; it's a command center for your crop. Its integrated technology allows you to fine-tune every aspect of the lighting:

• Integrated LCD Screen: A 4.5-inch display that gives you clear, real-time data on your settings, eliminating guesswork.
• Built-in Timer: Forget about buying unreliable analog timers. You can program the on/off cycles directly on the unit, reducing cable clutter and failure points.
• Spectrum Regulation: It allows you to adjust the light output specifically for the vegetative phase or the flowering phase, ensuring your plants get exactly what they need when they need it.
• Dimmer 0-100%: You can simulate sunrise and sunset or lower the intensity for seedlings without changing the fixture height constantly.
• Samsung Technology: With 2,430 Samsung LM301H chips and 144 Hypered Deep Red chips, you have the guarantee of market-leading stability and performance.

How to use it responsibly and comfortably

Setting up professional lighting has never been this intuitive. Follow these steps to get the most out of your Darwin Evo while maintaining a safe environment:

1. Secure Installation: Use the included steel metal cables and hangers to suspend the 13kg unit. Ensure your tent structure can support the weight.
2. Connect the Driver: Place the Inventronics driver on the provided supports or mount it outside the tent to further reduce heat inside the grow area.
3. Programming: Use the LCD screen to set your photoperiod (e.g., 18/6 for growth, 12/12 for bloom). The internal timer handles the rest.
4. Adjusting Intensity: Start with the dimmer at 40-50% for young plants and gradually increase to 100% as they enter full bloom.
5. Spectrum Selection: Use the regulator to switch between the vegetative spectrum (bluer/white) and the flowering boost (extra red) as the cycle progresses.
6. Maintenance: Since it has no moving parts, simply wipe the bars with a clean, dry cloth between harvests to keep the diodes free of dust.

Benefits of having everything under control

Switching to this advanced Full spectrum led grow lights system translates into tangible improvements for your daily life and your harvest:

• Peace of Mind: Knowing the timer is integrated and reliable means no more waking up at night to check if the lights turned off.
• Climate Stability: With less heat, your temperature and humidity parameters remain stable, reducing the risk of pests and fungi.
• Energy Savings: You get the output of a 1000W HPS while consuming only 660W, significantly lowering your electricity bill.
• Consistent Results: The even light distribution (120º) ensures that plants in the corners grow just as big as the ones in the center.
• Longevity: With a useful life of 54,000 hours, you have a reliable partner for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this LED produce a lot of heat?

No, compared to HPS or CMH lights, the Darwin Evo emits very little heat. Its passive aluminum dissipation system keeps the unit cool enough to touch, helping you maintain optimal grow room temperatures easily.

What size grow tent is this light for?

It is optimized for a 1.5 x 1.5 meter area for high-intensity flowering. However, it can effectively cover up to 1.8 x 1.8 meters for vegetative growth or less demanding setups.

Do I need an external timer?

No, this is one of its best features. The Darwin Evo V2 comes with a built-in timer controllable via the LCD screen, so you don't need external plugs or accessories.

Is it suitable for the entire life cycle of the plant?

Absolutely. Thanks to its dimmer and adjustable spectrum, you can use it from seedling to harvest, providing the perfect light intensity and color for every stage.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I've tested dozens of LED bars over the years, but the Darwin Evo V2 really surprised me with its usability. The feature that gives me the most peace of mind is undoubtedly the integrated timer and screen. It might seem like a small detail, but eliminating external timers—which often fail or get stuck—gives you a sense of control that is priceless. You just set it and forget it.

In my tests, I noticed that the "Bloom" mode with the extra red chips really pushes the buds to fatten up in the last weeks. My trick is to keep the driver outside the tent; the cable is long enough, and it drops the temperature inside by a couple of degrees, allowing the terpenes to preserve their full aroma until harvest.
