AC Infinity's lighting range runs from 28 W supplemental bars up to 1,000 W commercial fixtures, built around LM301H-class full-spectrum diodes with 660 nm deep red. Every light ships with its own controller for scheduling and sunrise/sunset dimming, and connects to the UIS™ platform if you want to run it alongside your fans and climate gear. Quick Bloom Lights is the official Australian importer — stocked in Sydney, Australian plug fitted, 2-year warranty handled locally.

Two ranges, two different jobs
The naming isn't obvious from the outside, so here's what actually separates them:
Ionbeam — bars
Slim LED bars for propagation shelves, seedlings, cloning, cupboards and under-canopy supplementation. Low wattage, mount almost anywhere, and useful alongside a main light rather than instead of one. The S16 and S11 are the full-spectrum versions.
Ionframe EVO — bar fixtures
Bar-style commercial fixtures with diodes spread across a wide frame instead of concentrated on one board. That spread is what gives even coverage to the edges of a tent and better canopy penetration, and it's why the EVO range is what serious flowering setups run. 280 W through to 1,000 W.
Which light for which tent
Manufacturer coverage ratings, with the practical note that matters for each:
EVO8 and EVO10 both cover a 5x5. The EVO10 puts considerably more light into the same footprint — worth it if you're pushing yields with CO² supplementation and can manage the extra heat, unnecessary if you're not.
Spectrum and utility add-ons
Ionbeam U2 adds targeted UV alongside your main light, used late in flower for terpene and trichome development. It supplements a main fixture rather than replacing one.
Ionbeam Green is a green work light for checking on plants during lights-off without interrupting the dark cycle — useful if your tent's dark period falls when you're actually home.
Do you need a separate controller?
No. Every AC Infinity grow light includes its own controller with scheduled on/off and sunrise/sunset dimming. You can run a full day/night cycle straight out of the box with nothing else bought.
A standalone controller like Controller AI+ is an upgrade, not a requirement. It extends control past the light to your fans, humidifiers and heaters from one place, with temperature, humidity and VPD-based automation the light's own controller doesn't offer. Worth adding if you're running a full climate setup — not something you need just to get a light on a timer.
FAQ
EVO3 or EVO4 — they're almost the same price?
They are, and the wattages are close (280 W against 300 W), so go by tent shape rather than price. The EVO3 is built for a 2x4 rectangle; the EVO4 for a 3x3 square. Putting the wrong one in means light spilling onto tent walls at the ends, or dim corners at the sides. Measure the footprint and match it.
What suits a 2x2 or smaller space?
The current Ionframe range starts at a 2x4 footprint, so for anything smaller you're looking at Ionbeam bars — the S11 and S16 handle propagation shelves, cupboards, seedlings and cloning well. For a small tent being run through to flower, talk to us before buying: an oversized fixture dimmed down is often a better answer than an undersized one at full output, and we'd rather point you at the right thing than sell you the wrong one.
Can I run a smaller light in a bigger tent and just raise it?
You can, but you'll pay for it in yield. Raising a light spreads the same total light over more area, which lowers intensity at the canopy everywhere. It's better to match the fixture to the footprint and dim it down than to under-light and hang high — a dimmed larger light also runs cooler and lasts longer.
Can I daisy-chain several lights together?
Yes. The Ionframe range supports daisy-chaining so multiple fixtures dim and schedule as one, which is how multi-tent and multi-bench setups are usually wired. For lights outside the UIS platform, the UIS Lighting Adapter Type-A brings RJ11/12 fixtures with PWM or 0–10 V dimming into the same system.
Do I need supplemental UV?
No — it's an optimisation, not a requirement. Growers chasing terpene and trichome development add UV in late flower on top of a full-spectrum main light. If you're still getting the basics of your environment right, spend the money on climate control first.
Is this genuine AC Infinity stock with Australian warranty?
Yes. Quick Bloom Lights is the official Australian importer and distributor for AC Infinity. Every light ships with a fitted Australian plug and a 2-year limited warranty handled here in Sydney — no sending units overseas, no dealing with an offshore seller if something goes wrong.
