Wiring the dimmers to the same potentiometer should be straight forward and simple. You'd need a dimmable driver for your fans though. You can get little in line resistors with some pc fans that reduce fan speed too. They're known for noise reduction but it just slows the fan down.
Actually now that I think about it, do I want to connect the driver and the fans to the same dimmer? The power switch, sure, but perhaps I want to keep the dimmers separate?
I keep my fans at 100% all the time, it's quiet enough and I'm not worried about .37amps at 12 volts.
I'm struggling also between the A and B model which to buy. Is difficult to access the potentiometer on the A model? Why is good idea dim more than 50%?
Dimming below 50% seems kinda useless to me. The main advantage of the B version for me is that I can put the pot wherever I want to and there's also space for automation. With the A version, you're restricted to control the output on the case of the driver and therefore you have to leave it easily accessible in order to dim it.
Thanks for that explanation. How often do you use the dim switcher? Like every day when you enter into the box or just at the different grow stages of the plants?
Only for new clones to let them adjust.
Anyone out there wanna help I also got a iventronics 160 watt 4 40 watt out puts with 0.7 amps each
ANYBODY???? LOL
Need sum help here
Black with white stripe from the adapter to yellow on the fan.
Thanks Alesh. I have seen a few posts now and several are different on the wiring process.
Ye there's a difference between 3pin and 4pin. I was talking about 4 pin. Lesson learned I guess
