Budman beat me to it ... but this is more like the iconic version:



The 1957 model - earlier that the one in the Beach Boys song.

Yeah, and I know you don't want to know how hot it it is here right now, but baked while baking hot is the local reality. I can hear my tomatoes growing lol. Also, my secret tomato tip is *whispers*: Maxibloom. That's all I use in my garden

Toasted means you can still get burnt.

it's like that here too as well.....you could almost bake cookies outside right now...it was the same this weekend too...we just stayed inside till bout 7pm....

 

[BudmanTX]

this weekend, unless you have a pool, make sure your A/c is good and stay inside...and on top of that..the farmers in Mexico are starting to burn they're fields...so now we got a little haze of smoke in the air from that.....by the time i leave here a go home....it will still be in the upper 90's....summer down here are no joke......

Roasty outside here too, glad I got the AC serviced this spring. Fingers crossed no power issues etc on the grid.

HLG 300 V1. So old it's no longer on their discontinued page. You have to use a screwdriver to dim it.

I'm no electrician by any means but I think I'd grab an insulated screwdriver instead of an all metal one next time. Just in case the tip bumps something that could short to the screwdriver. I'm famous for shocking myself with all kinds of electrical stuff so don't just take my word on it. Hopefully one of our electrical gurus can say if that's safe or not. I've been hit by household current so many times I've just stopped messing with anything electric. It's easier for me to pay a pro than put up with my wife's laughter as I spark up.

I still remember mom saying "don't do it"...and of course we all did.

It's made to be adjusted like that, a variable resistor. The drivers output DC, not household current. DC can be worse depending on voltage and current. I welded with 28V DC once, 300 amps though.
