Yeah I just bought some T5 fixtures to run some UV this round. Ive had the boards and strips for a couple runs now

It’s definitely not a featherweight unit but I’d say probably about 35-40lb. I have it supported with 4 3/16 rope ratchets, one on each corner. No issues so far. 3rd with it and some more very happy plants.

That's not too bad then about what a lot of 6-8 bar lights would weigh. Looks like its heavy AF tho lol.

Turned lights down to 50% on the voltage current (2nd screw) then moved seedlings to withing 20 inches, seems a lot better now less heat and no light stress.

Good stuff! My bad man, I was under the impression that your light wasn’t dimmable. Sounds like you got the sweet spot now.
