    modular overkill led striplight build

    veg box is quite full. all kind of plants in different media. perlite hempy, cocos and soil. btw. really need to change the box to some led strips, the cobs i use in this since 2016 are too hard and always bleach my tops, need to cut them down every 2 weeks and rearange them often.

    Choosing an LED Light

    all good, am quite stoned and my thoughts are drifting. also i my brain connected the "panel" wrong. i also derail this COB led thread with the "sun" thing a lot i fear. basically the difference between sun and our indoor and what makes the difference is driving my mind. youre of course right...

    Choosing an LED Light

    nothing youve posted is wrong. am aware of how the color temparature change over the day and where it comes from, also am aware of the working principle of a softbox and how light travels. my example is refering to diffusion foils used in greenhouses, so its working with the sun as the light...

    Choosing an LED Light

    youre right i may get something wrong (non native english either), but sun is never small on planet earth as there is diffusion due to dust particles in the atmosphere and further diffusion due to clouds (if theyre there).

    Down to Earth Organic Fert + Autoflowers?

    when i wrote it i thought youre doing the exact same thing :D. i simply used the role of celophan foil from the kitchen without thinking too much of it further. its a quite perfect fit and took just a few seconds to wrap it around. youre aboslute right with the dry edges, in cocos its not so...

    Down to Earth Organic Fert + Autoflowers?

    absolute, you can always wrap fabric pots in to some foil to simulate a plastic pot. doing the same, does really help a lot to keep the sides moist.

    Enzyme Experiment - head-to-head

    you can also buy a unscented organic kitchen drain unblocker product to have the same, just way higher concentrated. https://www.cleanstore.co.uk/products/Product.asp?ID=2781 no joke, tested myself, it should be 10 times higher concentrated then the Canna enzymes, otherwise the same. of course...

    may try the PWM route. https://www.amazon.ca/Controller-Dimming-Dimmable-Interior-Spotlight/dp/B09CTT7XLK/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=pwm+dimmer&qid=1637331558&s=industrial&sr=1-17 it says its PWM, while could be everything. with luck its something generating a PWM signal, basically like the...

    true these cheap relais arent really good perfroming on DC. how do you reenable them, when you dim below 1V the relais goes off and then?? turning the dial up again wont turn it on again. hard to say how your 3V relais will behave. edit .solved

    as far i got him hes is looking to switch at least a part of his power supplies on the DC side so the input caps of the drivers stay charged and dont cause the inrush current when switching several on at the same time. of course he could start them with seperate timers a minute apart each, but...

    no i was refering to the transistor probably used on the module you linked, its a bad idea, you likely have to deal with converting pwm to dc also and its all unpredictable. the 12v lm393 comparator pcbs on ebay or else are way better.

    maybe better to search your amazon for " LM393 Comparator Module ", ive never used these, check the specs yourself but they apear more promissing for your plan.
