    Help buying and building my first cob light.

    Hey guys so what does the resistor do that goes to the potentiometer. I have it plugged to my watt meter and when I try to dim it up. It does not let me go past 50watts. Is that what this is for or did I do something wrong.?? Tripping me out. It does dim down to about 20watts. If someone can...

    My First Cob grow. 4x4 Tent. Cree. Any tips or comments are much Appreciated!.

    I used viparspectra. It's actually what my cobs replaced. A 450w viparspectra. Did pretty good job I think. I have 2 450w in my big grow room. Actual watt is like 200. But I'm also putting a cob set up to compare them. So if you try it you won't be the only one.

    Really them I did those wrong I'll have to re do it. I put positive then neg. But it came to a stop. One of my bjb holders clip on the back broke. So it was not touching the cob which made them or turn on. So now ordered another and some extras. Have to wait. But I tried my 2 cob kit and...

    Is the ViparSpectra Reflector-Series 300W LED Decent?

    Cobs seem very interesting. My kits should be here hopefully tomorrow. I'm currently using cfls for my 3 new seeds. 4-32w making 96w.

    Is the ViparSpectra Reflector-Series 300W LED Decent?

    I used a 450w vipar and did decent with it in my 2x2 tent. So can't really talk bad about it but I know there's better lights which I bought 2 cob kits. 2 cobs at 150w and 4cobs to get 200w max. Will dim it and start at half.

    Help buying and building my first cob light.

    6 cobs in a 2x2. Seems like a lot. But one kit was going in my bigger grow room to compare side by side with a other led panel that I have.

    Help buying and building my first cob light.

    So the light has to be atleast 12" from reaching ceiling in my tent? If so then I will have to buy a other tent. Mine is only 4ft tall. I'm not trying to make huge plants. That's what I have my 6x6 shed room for. Could I grow small plants in a 4ft tall with cobs. Or will that be a bit too much...
