    Arduino Watering by Moisture

    Who pissed in your cheerio's this morning? 1: Quite a few people grow in soil and soil like media like coco-fiber. I'd argue that even today hydroponics still remains a niche compared to the number of garners using soil and soilless media. 2: The point of the sensor is to trip the switch for...

    the HLG-600H thread

    Ah I see, it seemed like you were going to run 18awg throughout the circuit. The connection between the driver and cobs ( or your bus bar in this instance) was my point of concern. carry on then. :p I need more sleep for proper communication

    the HLG-600H thread

    I'm not so much worried about the current rating on the cob holder. Wouldn't the voltage drop from the 16.7 amp output of the meanwell HLG-600H-36 on 18AWG be cause for concern though?

    the HLG-600H thread

    So, one concern I don't see being addressed here is wire. The 50-2303CR solderless connectors are limited to 18 gauge solid copper, which is only going to allow for about 5' of wire at these power levels. Less if you want higher driving currents/fewer chips. You'll have to remove the...

    the HLG-600H thread

    It's an internal pot with an adjustment range, not a switch. I actually own a few of the 'A' type drivers. The problem with them is keeping track of that infernal rubber plug :cuss:

    Mau5Capades: builds & grow journal

    Hard to find the time too. I can completely relate to the time management issues. I have a build mapped out for a 200w system for a 2x4 space and most of the supplies purchased. However every time I go to work on it I get the nagging sensation in the back of my head that there's higher...

    Mau5Capades: builds & grow journal

    Kinda seems like one of those 'k-type' questions.... Only E&B, none of the above, ect. :P I don't see why it matters what the motivation is. Free helpful info is free helpful info from my perspective. Just glad people are making video's now, components are readily available, and configurations...

    Repairing/upgrading LED

    It wouldn't be an issue in this instance. No risk of shit blowing if the original drivers were used and a proper thermal path was established. Running these without a fan was a big no-no. The optic lights already ran hot IIRC so that's just making a bad situation worse. That few hours on the...

    Fluorescent tube replacement LEDS?

    Get enough of any light and it will grow a plant. See CaptainMorgans experiments with the cree home depot bulbs. These would make great clone room lights. I almost think the peel and stick LED tape lights would be a better fit for most laymen than the Hyperikons though. At the point where...

    LEDs and potency

    Have you noticed any combo's that seemed to do better than others as far as potency? Any solid lemons that just didn't work?

    LEDs and potency

    I'm assuming you used the quoted light schedule during this test? What was the main light source and light cycle if you don't mind me asking?

    I'd like to pick up a worm inn mega one of these day's. Those look like nice units. My home made efforts have been less than impressive.
