TELOS 0010 PRO MESH LED 300W GROW LIGHT
Elevate Your Grow Room with the TELOS 0010 PRO MESH LED 300W Grow Light
Introducing the revolutionary TELOS 0010 PRO MESH LED 300W Grow Light, designed to transform how you control your indoor garden. This innovative lighting system incorporates the Telos Mesh control technology, allowing for seamless wireless management of your light’s Photosynthetic Photon Flux (PPF) output. With next-generation drivers engineered by Telos, this fixture stands as the world’s first Bluetooth mesh-integrated waterproof driver tailored specifically for horticulture, offering growers unprecedented functionality.
Harnessing Bluetooth Mesh Technology
The Telos Mesh system utilizes the latest Bluetooth Mesh standard for communication, creating an “offline” and “decentralized” network. This means you can operate your grow lights without the need for a router or internet connection. Each light is equipped with a state-of-the-art microprocessor, allowing it to function autonomously like a mini-computer with its own independent operating system.
How Telos Mesh Operates
With the Telos Mesh, multiple grow lights can communicate effortlessly without relying on Wi-Fi. Once you create a network using your smartphone or smart device, each light retains its unique encryption keys and network settings. This ensures that once set up, the schedules and dimming levels continue to function seamlessly, even if you're out of range. Each light has an effective communication range of approximately 50 meters, enabling reliable interaction with other lights in the network.
Adding more lights enhances the overall network strength and range, as they relay messages to one another. Imagine sending a command to dim the last light in a series of Telos fixtures positioned every 50 meters — even to the moon! Each light in the network will receive and pass along your command until it reaches its destination, providing you with ultimate control over your indoor horticulture environment.
Upgrade your growing experience with the TELOS 0010 PRO MESH LED 300W Grow Light, where cutting-edge technology meets exceptional efficiency, ensuring robust plant growth in hydroponics and indoor gardens.
KEY VALUES:
- Traditional linking controllers have used ‘telephone wire’ cables to daisy chain a limited number of units together. Using a completely wireless system such as Telos Mesh you can reduce the set-up time and amount of clutter within the grow area.
- Conventional 0-10v dimming usually is a fairly limited technology that adjusts output in incremental steps by turning a knob on the driver or ballast. Changing the setting adjusts the brightness of the light by a consequence of changing the wattage of the power supply.
- With Precise PPF™ you can specify the exact PPF output of your Telos LED using the app without being limited to increments. The system takes into account the changes in LED efficiency at the required wattage and the lifetime degradation of the LED performance to calculate the exact power output needed to achieve the requested PPF level. Compared with a 0-10v dimming system this provides a much more accurate and repeatable solution for growers.
- The app displays the active power consumption and efficiency at different output settings.
- The app allows you to easily group lights together and you can have multiple groups within the same mesh network. Schedules can be created to turn the lights off and on throughout the day and separate schedules can then be applied to different groups of lights within the same network. You can also apply a PPF setting to each group of lights.
- The app has an integrated sunrise and sunset mode which helps the plants to wake up and acclimatise slowly when the light period starts. When it’s time for the lights to switch off again the simulated sunset helps to smooth out the temperature change within the grow area, making it easier to maintain the correct environment for your plants.
- It includes an offline mode so that you can control your Telos LED without connecting to the app. By pressing the integrated touch sensor on the side of the driver you can cycle through the preset PPF output levels which are suitable for propagation, veg and flower.

PRODUCT FAQ
IS THIS SECURE?
Privacy and Security are at the core of the Telos Mesh design and all commands are sent with end to end encryption. Firstly the user is in control, the Bluetooth functionality doesn’t turn on until activated by the user using the touchpad.
When Bluetooth is activated you can connect to the network in around 30 seconds. Once connected, the system will stop broadcasting/advertising. Advertising is important for most Bluetooth devices like a pair of headphones as it allows you to find and connect to devices more easily. Advertising isn’t needed with Telos mesh as once added to a network there’s no need to disconnect and reconnect later.
The device switches permanently from “advertising” to “listening mode” where it listens for encrypted messages sent from the app. This means that you can’t find devices using Bluetooth sniffers or Bluetooth listening devices and the only device that can talk to the networks is one that has the network encryption key. If the network login or smart device that created the network is lost, then you need to reset each light on the network using the touchpad. Although this could be a long process, it guarantees the privacy and security of the network.
There is an additional option for backing encryption keys and mesh setting to the cloud, this is useful for larger projects when multiple devices need access to the mesh controls.
CAN I UPGRADE MY EXISTING TELOS?
We pride ourselves on never leaving a Telos customer behind! We want to make sure that you can continue to get great performance from your Telos LED for years to come without being left behind by advances in LED technologies.
The new mesh driver upgrade will enable anyone who owns a Telos 0006, 0008 and 0010 whether it’s a V1, V1.1, Pro or Slimine to upgrade. Even customers who brought an Original Telos-0008 at launch over 5 years ago can easily upgrade to Telos mesh!
WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE UPGRADE KIT?
The Mesh Upgrade Kits include either a 200w or 320w mesh-integrated waterproof driver, high quality IP66 rated connectors and a 4mm hex screwdriver to complete the swap using our clear instructions. The 320 mesh driver will be used to upgrade Telos 10 and Telos 8 models and the 200w driver will be used to upgrade Telos 6 models.
