Omega Black 720W LED – Affordable High-Performance LED Grow Lighting
The Omega Black 720W LED delivers pro-level performance at a fraction of the cost of other bar LEDs in its class. Upgraded to achieve 3.2 μmol/J efficiency and an impressive PPF output of 2304 μmol/s, it’s one of the best value high-output LEDs on the market.
By utilising the same proven digital ballast technology from the Omega Black HPS ballast, Omega have cut costs without cutting corners. If you already own a compatible ballast, you can save even more by powering this fixture directly with your existing unit.
Key Benefits
- Incredible Value: Comparable performance at roughly half the price of similar LEDs
- High Output: 2304 μmol/s total PPF
- Ultra-Efficient: 3.2 μmol/J – less power wasted as heat, more light for your plants
- Ballast-Powered Design: Runs on the Omega Black digital HPS ballast
- Flower-Optimised Spectrum: Rich in red light to maximise weight, flavour, and aroma
- Even Coverage: Bar-style design for flat, uniform canopies with no hotspots
- Long Lifespan: 50,000-hour rating for years of reliable use
Performance & Spectrum
This LED’s balanced spectrum covers all plant stages, with an emphasis on the red range to power heavy flowering. The bar (or “spider”) design creates an almost perfectly uniform footprint, minimising plant stress and ensuring even growth across your entire space. High efficiency means less heat to deal with, making environmental control easier and more stable.
Pro Tips for Pushing Yields Further
- Use with a PHOTOBIO Advanced Quantum PAR Meter to dial in the perfect intensity for each growth stage
- Combine with CO₂ supplementation to boost photosynthesis – often increasing yields by 10–20%
-
Want more control? Pair alongside the Omega Synco or Omega Matrix controllers.

How To Use
How to Use the Omega Black 720w LED Grow Light
The Omega Black LED is one of the quickest and easiest to set up. The fixture is supplied pre-assembled. It's folded in half in the box (via the central hinge) — all you need to do is open it up, connect up an Omega Black 600w digital HPS ballast and you're good to go.
A set of brackets is included which can be fitted in minutes by screwing them into the two central bars. You can use these to attach the ballast and the spirit level.
There are hanging eyelets in each corner of the fixture, so you'll need two pairs of rope ratchets to hang it.
In a typical indoor garden set-up, it's likely that you'll need to program your lighting schedules. We stock a range of products that can support larger power draws and multiple lighting fixtures.
As always, start off by raising up the Omega Black and running it on a lower setting. You can then increase the intensity and lower your light down as your plants adjust to it.
The Omega Black LED will produce great results in grow tents of between 1.2 square metres and 1.5 square metres.
