Pulsed Xenon Lighting

Introducing the PhotonFlux technology from Firefly-One, Inc., the next generation in greenhouse lighting. Unlike traditional lighting systems such as Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL), High-Pressure Sodium (HPS), and Light Emitting Diodes (LED), our full-spectrum Xenon light pulses 80 times per minute to simulate the natural “sunfleck” effect. By doing so, it stimulates photosynthesis in the plant and increases the plant’s photon exposure without causing heat damage.

The technology behind our lighting system is based on over 70 years of industrial use of pulsed Xenon lighting in applications such as movie projection, microscope lighting, and photography. Our system is designed to replicate the full spectrum of sunlight while using the stroboscopic output to imitate the natural dappling effect of sunfleck. The benefits of PhotonFlux technology are numerous. By providing cool, high-intensity pulsed light that penetrates plant structures and canopies like direct sunlight, it optimizes the plant’s quantum ability to process photons rapidly through the photosynthesis process. Our lighting system improves root development, grows stronger stems with reduced internode spacing, and produces faster transplants and shorter crop cycles for greater crop yield. Additionally, our technology eliminates heat generated by traditional lighting, resulting in significant cost savings associated with cooling.

At Firefly-One, we are committed to sustainability and reducing the carbon footprint of growing operations. By using our Xenon strobe lighting systems, growers can increase crop yields, lower operational costs, and reduce their carbon footprint. Our patented technology is based on seven years of field research that confirms the effect of full-spectrum pulses on the leaf strata.
