I need to raise my QB a little more, but the pulleys are all the way up. Can some one tell me the name of the 1/16" black wire that connects my board to the pulley, where I can get the crimper tool and crimp sleeves? Thanks!

Any hardware store will carry different wires and crimpers. But aircraft cable is a common name and you will find all the different kind of crimping options in the same isle. generally in the fastener/hardware section of the store

Nice....what height over canopy and wattage ??
Height over the main cola on the autoflower is about 16”, maybe a little less, the 2 photos are an easy 24”+ away. Wattage I’ll have to double check. I’ve got the 260w kit but it’s not on full blast. Probably around 180~ Watts. Will check when they wake back up.

This was nearly a year ago. I'm assuming since the s6 diodes were recently released, this is from the old s5 diodes?
Is there a change in spectrum from these? Can we get an updated graph for the new bin diodes please?
I'll admit, I'm a light newb and haven't fully read thru the thread. Sorry if I missed something or sound newbish. Thanks

Checked it today, 170watts from the wall. My whole setup is a little over 250w total.

Yeah, the rotators will be pretty beefy.
Using 1" stuff.
Not going with my prototype slip ring commutator though. Gonna use prepackaged ones marketed for wind turbines and such.
