LightRail
The LightRail® Difference - Grow Lamp Movers
When indoor grow lights move over the tops of the plants, the grow lamps can be positioned closer to the plants for maximized ppfd. Moving grow lamps can also penetrate to more leaf area, maximizing each grow light on two fronts at once. In addition, there are no hot spots, and shadow patterns are reduced. LightRail grow light movers provide this sun-like effect of stronger, closer light and to more leaf area simultaneously.
Why not just add more lights?
The majority of stationary grow light output is wasted, and simply adding more stationery grow lights cannot duplicate what light movers can do. That’s because light equals yield and its efficiency matters. LightRail light movers also cover about 30% more area per grow light. This saves 30% in electricity, 30% in up-front grow light purchases, 30% in replacement purchases AND we see faster growth and much better yields. Simply put, a LightRail grow light mover is the only grow equipment product that pays for itself. Moving your grow lights is a smart business move and the returns are immediate. In a market where energy efficiency is as important as yield, you can have both.
A light mover allows each grow lamp to cover 30% more area compared to stationary, increases the effectiveness of each grow light that was inefficient when stationary, and gets those grow lights to perform for maximum effect by allowing a closer plant to lamp tolerance. That is significant. LightRail is quality constructed instrument-grade robotics, solidly made in the USA to perform as an absolute workhorse, crop after crop and year after year. You can only get this with LightRail by Gualala Robotics.

LightRail Add-A-Lamp Kit, Extreme Duty Trolley Wheels Now as Standard:
As part of your grow equipment, this is the easiest way to move a second or third indoor garden light all from your one LightRail light mover motor, and now with pre-installed Extreme Duty Trolley Wheels which are rated to 60 lbs. Compatible with your existing LightRail 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 or 4.20 grow light system, the Add A Lamp Kit allows for extended coverage for an additional grow lamp in-line, along with adjustable run length and indoor grow light spacing. The Add A Lamp Kit includes a two-piece, 2 meter light mover rail (6’6” total length), a 6’ push/pull rod, an Auxiliary Trolley, hardware, and instructions. It comes complete.
Additional Information
With the LightRail Add A Lamp Kit, multiple indoor grow lights can be moved:
Note: Up to three indoor grow lights can be moved in-line with this grow light system. For the three indoor garden light configurations, you would have this: There would be a LightRail Add-A-Lamp Kit, then a LightRail 3.5 or a LightRail 4.0 Kit then another LightRail Add-A-Lamp Kit. For moving two indoor grow lights in-line, you would have a LightRail 3.5 or 4.0 Kit and then an Add-A-Lamp Kit. Also note, the LightRail 4.20 Kit (see product page) comes with one Add-A-Lamp Kit included.
Hint: For a tighter fit, the Add-A-Lamp Kit together with your LightRail 3.5 or 4.0 Kit can be used with light mover rail halves only. And, that DIY light mover configuration would have 1-3 foot gaps in between the light mover rail halves. So, this allows for more grow light system space flexibility. And, the indoor plant light will fill into the gap areas from both sides. This grow light system configuration gives good grow lamp coverage for the entire area including the “gap plants”.
Suggested travel distance? About 3’-4’ (1m) Switch Stop to Switch Stop. This will likely light up the 6’6” (2m) Rail length nicely, as half the light from your lamp goes beyond that stopper setting and this happens at both ends of the lamp’s travel, with grow light pattern coverage going even farther.
Suggested time delay setting? At 3’-4’ (1m) of travel, a time delay setting of about 20-30 seconds might be just right. You can then see over time if any adjustments are needed.

Auxiliary Trolley:
The LightRail Auxiliary Trolley with Extreme Duty Trolley Wheels now as standard, and rated to 60 lbs. It is compatible with LightRail 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.20 and has many indoor grow equipment uses.
It is the same Auxiliary Trolley that you would find in the Add A Lamp Kit. For uses, in addition to moving a second indoor grow light as part of the Add A Lamp Kit, it can also be used to aid in the securing of any vent tubing or grow light cords.
Additional Information
There are many uses for the LightRail Auxiliary Trolley
In addition to being used to move a second grow lamp as part of the Add-A-Lamp Kit, it can also be used in the securing of vent tubing and indoor grow light power cords. And in this instance, as your LightRail Motor goes along the rail in one direction, it gently pushes the ductwork or cords out in front. Then, as the LightRail Motor goes in the other direction, it gently pulls ductwork or cords along behind. The LightRail Auxiliary Trolley is sold on its own, as shown, to provide available extra Trolleys. And, it can be used for a variety of purposes. And, to see three clever hacks for this accessory grow equipment.
