Lumatek Zeus Xtreme CO2 1000W 2.9 LED Grow Light – High PPFD & Efficiency

The Lumatek Zeus Xtreme CO2 1000W 2.9 LED Grow Light is the ultimate lighting solution for growers who refuse to compromise, delivering an industry-leading 2925 µmol/s PPF to maximize your yields like never before. This fixture isn't just a light; it's a high-precision tool designed to saturate your canopy with high-intensity photons, specifically engineered to work in synergy with CO2 supplementation for record-breaking harvests.

Why your current setup might be holding you back

Are you feeling stuck with your current yields, no matter how much you tweak your nutrients or environment? It’s a common headache: you invest time and money into premium genetics and fertilizers, but the final weight on the scale just doesn't reflect your effort. You know your plants have more potential, but your current lighting system simply lacks the punch to unlock it.

There is nothing more frustrating than knowing you are hitting a "glass ceiling" in production. Watching your plants grow vigorously in veg only to produce airy or average-sized flowers in bloom is a vibe killer. You might be dealing with heat issues from old HPS tech or using LEDs that just don't have the deep canopy penetration needed for those rock-hard lower buds.

The solution is raw, controlled power. The Zeus Xtreme CO2 1000W 2.9 is designed to push your plants to their absolute biological limit. By providing extremely high levels of PPFD, it forces your plants to metabolize faster (when paired with CO2), resulting in explosive growth, shorter cycles, and a significant increase in gram-per-watt production.

If you’re just starting out: how this product helps you

Don't let the "Xtreme" name scare you; this beast is surprisingly tame if you treat it with respect. If you are new to high-end cultivation, this LED gives you a massive advantage: it runs much cooler than equivalent HPS systems, making temperature management a breeze. Plus, its plug-and-play design means you spend less time setting up and more time growing.

• Dimmable Power: You can dial it down to 25% for seedlings and clones, so you don't fry your little ones.
• Full Spectrum: No need to change bulbs between veg and bloom; this light does it all perfectly.
• Silent Operation: No buzzing ballasts or noisy fans, keeping your grow room stealthy and chill.

If you already have experience: why it deserves a place in your kit

For the veteran grower, this is the upgrade you've been waiting for. This light is specifically calibrated for 1.5 x 1.5m tents where you are running supplemental Carbon Dioxide. The uniformity of the light spread is unmatched, eliminating hotspots and ensuring that the plants in the corners get just as much love as the ones in the center.

• CO2 Synergy: Designed to deliver the high PPFD intensities that require elevated CO2 levels (1000-1500 ppm) for maximum photosynthesis.
• Modular Design: The magnetic light bars are replaceable and easy to clean, ensuring long-term maintenance is hassle-free.
• External Control: Fully compatible with Lumatek digital controllers (sold separately in our Lighting Accessories section) for automated timing and sunrise/sunset modes.

Advantages and benefits for any level

• Massive Output: With 2925 µmol/s, you are getting one of the most powerful 1000w grow light LED fixtures on the market.
• Energy Efficiency: At 2.9 µmol/J, you get more light for every euro spent on electricity compared to older technologies.
• Deep Penetration: The light intensity ensures that even lower branches develop dense flowers, reducing "larf" or popcorn buds.
• Top-Tier Diodes: Built with Lumileds and Osram chips, ensuring reliability and a spectrum that mimics natural sunlight.
• Longevity: Rated for 60,000 hours of use, meaning this investment will pay for itself over many harvests.
• Water Resistant: IP65 rated, so high humidity or accidental splashes won't ruin your gear.

Typical mistakes this product helps you avoid

Even with the best gear, user error can happen. The Zeus Xtreme is designed to minimize common pitfalls, but you need to use it correctly to avoid issues.

• Light Bleaching: Because it's so powerful, hanging it too close without CO2 can stress plants. The dimmer helps you avoid this common mistake.
• Heat Stress: Unlike HPS, the heat is dissipated passively, preventing the "oven effect" that stunts growth.
• Uneven Canopy: The bar design spreads light evenly, preventing the "pyramid" growth structure caused by single-point light sources.
• Wasted Energy: It stops you from paying for heat you don't need, focusing your electric bill on actual photon production.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I absolutely need CO2 to use this light?

To run it at 100% power at the recommended height, yes, CO2 is highly recommended. Without CO2, the light intensity might be too high for the plants to process, so you would need to dim it or raise it significantly.

What is the recommended hanging distance?

For the vegetative stage, keep it around 50-60cm and dimmed. In flowering, you can lower it to 15-30cm above the canopy if you are supplementing with CO2 and monitoring leaf surface temperature.

Can I control multiple units at once?

Yes! You can daisy-chain up to 100 fixtures using the Lumatek Digital Panel Plus 2.0, giving you total control over your entire grow room from one spot.

Is it difficult to assemble?

Not at all. The magnetic bars click into place easily. It's a one-person job, but due to its size, having a friend help you hang it is always a good idea.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

"If you asked me to choose the 'Ferrari' of LED lights right now, the Lumatek Zeus Xtreme 1000W would be at the top of my list. I've tested it in a 1.5m tent with CO2 levels at 1200ppm, and the explosive growth was something I hadn't seen in years. For beginners, I'd say: be careful with the power knob! Start low. For the pros: this is the tool that will finally get you to that 2+ grams per watt goal. It's an investment, but the quality of the resin and the density of the buds pay for it in the first run."
