Red led lights are dim

Hi everyone,
I’ve recently noticed 2 of the red leds appear to be dim in colour.
Will this effect the plants? and if so, is it easy to replace leds?
Cheers

Those are likely 720 nm LED’s which is just barely in the visible range for humans. It is possible that they are 660 nm LED’s that are failing but that is not how LED’s usually fail.

What model light is it and how long have you been using it?

In any event, this will have an absolutely minimal effect on your plants.

Hi and thanks for the reply.
It is mars hydro ts1000 and I’ve been using it only around 6 months. I have a 2 week old seedling growing under it and it’s powering along ( ww photo ). I was worried it might effect flower time.
Cheers

Just like @merlin44 stated. Those are likely the 730nm (infrared). Odd there’s only 2 on the whole board
