RTG CEL (Ready To Grow Cool Efficient Light) is an open source grow lighting system created by lighting designer Richard Tyler Greene. RTG CEL is designed to be powered with renewable energy generated on site.

RTG CEL has no cooling fans. CEL can be used in an unventilated room or closet space with out attracting un-necessary attention. RTG CEL also uses minimal amounts of electricity which gives you the most output for the least amount of cost and strain.

CEL balances all the needed wavelengths of light in proportion to each other allowing for extreme efficiency. An RTG CEL fixture will emit photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) with out producing extra heat or consuming excess electricity.



Cool and efficient light providing consistent, constant, controlled, wavelength specific and directional illumination. The cool efficient light (CEL for short) emits the wanted wavelengths of light directionally while dissipating the heat through the reflector. The light output can be smooth and not pulsed leading to a higher ratio of light over time. Choosing the right emitters for the intended use it is possible to emit wanted wavelengths of light in the wanted place with minimal extra radiation such as heat or UV rays.
