Thread: LR1000 Shade Dimensions?

Hey everyone, Im actually not a grower.. Im a woodworker.. LOL.. I have a customer that has asked me to build some custom shades for a medical grow room. The shades will be made to accomodate 2 - 6" cool tubes and will cover a grow area of 8 x 3'6. The customer has done some research on light reflectors and has found that the LR1000 shades provide the best reflection for growing in beds. And thus, she has asked me to attempt to replicate the dimensions of the LR1000 shades as best I can.

Just wondering if someone out there that uses these shades could possibly lay a tape measure on it and give me some exact dimensions? Either that or a link to some specs would be great as I have not had any luck finding them! I will basically be building 1 shade twice as long as too accomodate 2 cool tubes.. but I need to get the angles and sizes etc. The measurements I need are as follows:

A - Bottom Length
B - Bottom Width
C - Top Length
D - Top Width
E - Rise Length

The over all height of the shade from base to top would be helpful too.. it can be tricky to measure the height accurately on an angle like that.. but I can figure it out from the above dimensions if need be!



Thanks in advance for your help!

normally...cool-tubes don't use a reflector? (shades?)..most are reflective inside the top half of the tube?

These ones are not, they are just a solid glass tube with metal ends for ducting and a mogul at one end..
