Is this the correct pot for dimming with a meanwell b driver? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016W8Y5DQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've never grown them indoors. What do you mean by 10/12 is that hrs of light?, it's only 22 hrs.

I think its working, 20 min at lights out, 11 - 13 schd. this is 6 weeks 3 days, the sk1 is nearly done, the cryst cndy has some time.

New pics, I think the sk1 may be done... only 6 weeks and 3 days, 90% + of the hairs are red, buds rock hard. I'm flushing and letting go 1 more week. The crystal is looking great but still has a lot of white hairs, really solid though. I think the 11- 13 light with the far red is an improvement...

I've had mine at 11/13 this run, looks really good. I think the 11 hrs really makes them think its getting late in the season, time to pour on the sh... Tonight all the sk #1 are bending over, tied a lot up to supports. I need to get a better support system, its really nice without any until now.

https://www.rollitup.org/t/what-about-this-light-schedule-with-far-red.953779/page-2#post-13993085 My sk #1 & crystal candy that get 15 min of 730nm at lights out, has been 41 days and the sk #1 seems like it's pretty far along. The crystal candy seem to be coming along slower.

Hooked it up to the kilawatt and the range is from 94 watts to 290 watts, I let it run for a while last night at max, didn't realize it was that high, got pretty warm. I could hold my hand for about 1 sec on the driver or heatsink, at 94 watts everything is barely warm. I now have it set to 180...

We have a machine shop and this was leftover from a job. I've got about 12' left, that the cool thing about a shop thats been around since 1969, theres alot of "stuff" that is handy to have. heatsinks are somewhat rare though so I was happy to find this, I have been scrounging for heatsinks and...

Here are some pics. I dimmed the red and blue light for some, hard to see the details cause my camera isnt as good as some of you guys.

I think the far red is speeding things up or???? My skunk #1 has really compact buds and most of the hairs have turned red, it will be 6 weeks on sunday. One in the back still has more white but still pretty red.The crystal candy's look really good, some hairs are red, more what I would expect...

here is the qb288 fix I just assembled.

Not really finding one with a fuse that I could change, I only wanted approx 6 amps before it blew, 4 meanwell hlg-120h-48a would draw about 5.6 amps.

I have previously made 4ea 2 board qb120 fixtures that the driver plugs directly in the wall, is there a device I can plug them into that would have a fuse?. Something like a power strip for 1 plug or 2 withs a 4 / 6 amp fuse. make any sense?

Thats a better way to do it.

Got the fused ones, I was buying a switch, fuse, strain relief for the cord, from Mcmaster carr, this is much simpler.

I see the one driver output should be labeled red not white.

The arguing gets everyone nowhere. Buy what you want, you get what you get, end of story. They prob are the same, or they are not, and you are happy with saving money, or happy that you got the real boards. They prob both light up. I usually would read all the posts but its pretty repetitive.

I think they look pretty good, still 3 weeks left but the 11 / 13 schd with the far red may be speeding them up.

I guess its just if there is something wrong, the fuse would blow, just overkill on my part. the fused / switch plug solves everything. The fuse is prob not needed but I think my Dad's precautions rubbed off on me. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ME5YAPK/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I love it when someone post a good idea... I have been cutting and soldering shit together to achieve this, you mean I can just plug a computer power cord in! sweet. Seems like i should have found that before. thks.
