It does run cooler BUT if you get a proper fan blowing on top of the TSL2000 the heat is virtually 0. Also you can lower the wattage slightly to lower the heat but never tried this yet. Honestly a fan completely solves the extra heat from TSL. Without it, yes it does get a bit hot though. Mine is actually cool!! to touch since i figured it out.
Overall sure though SP250 has noticeably higher quality design, runs cooler with the heatsink, and has better quality driver. Also better light penetration to lower regions.
TSL2000 has more watts, 2 drivers instead of 1, is better size for a 4x4 tent imo, but lower quality design and worse drivers.
Both fantastic and i use them side by side in a 4x4. Using the TSl2000 to veg for few weeks and then will add the SP250 later. SP250 has better light penetration so any bushy gals with decent undergrowth, i will put under the SP250.
@MarshydroTina Will take care of you but so far I fully approve of their TS and SP series.
