Damn... He will be missed... I learned a lot from him in the short time I knew him... He was a good dude... R. I. P. Brother...Norman Franklin Higgs unfortunately suddenly passed away on Monday.
He was a valued member of this community and an all round great guy.
He will be missed by many.
Just thought you folks who knew him on here should know.
Lets all smoke a fat one in his memory
I was about to get one of his lights... Me and my brother were... Daaaaammmm, Smokey!!!That's really horrible news. So I guess omega light will be a lost cause. Unless there's someone else taking it over?
Well said...I did not know of this man or ever interact with him, however reading through this thread so far I can tell he was a very large member of this community and I think it is very cool that people from all around the world are sending their condolences. Reading these things always makes me think of the footprint we leave on this earth is all that is left after we are gone, and that time can come at any minute.
Sounds like the world needs more cool dudes like this guy, my thoughts to all of his friends and family out there, higgs is onto bigger and better things somewhere else now. Take care all.
21 gun salute!!!
He was on a motorcycle???RIP Sir. I am new here but still sad when someone from a community of people who you share a common hobby passes away. I ride motorcycles daily and no matter if it’s someone I know or don’t passes away on a bike it hits myself and the bike community hard. Rest well my friend.
Very nice man... I was waiting to see how your plants were doing, but this thread seemed to disappear... Now I know why... I'm still gonna see if I can get a light from Omegalighting...Wow, I just found out of this today. This is very sad to hear. I had just bought a light from him about 2 months ago, which I completed my first harvest with it two weeks ago and the results were beyond awesome and exceeded my expectations so I sent him a long message thanking him and for all the help. I had also been having a conversation with him through pms for weeks about the light as well. He was going to message me back with some information the next day, I never did receive the information. I also messaged him a few days after and never got a response. I knew it was unusual but never expected the worse. I was about to buy another light from him too.
Man... rest easy nfhiggs. He will be missed by many, that’s obvious. So unfortunate... this just brought me down at work. Definitely keeping his light until it burns out.
Did anyone know him on a personal level? I’m wondering if he ran his website/business by himself or had help? Seeing if I could order another light from his website. Anything to help out.
Thanks for this thread as well.
Also I’d just like to post a couple pictures of my first grow/harvest with the light I got from him. In respect to him and show that he made top shelf lights for bottom shelf prices. Can’t thank him enough.

Yes do get in touch with them, if one of the family have taken over then it would be good to know Omega is still going.Very nice man... I was waiting to see how your plants were doing, but this thread seemed to disappear... Now I know why... I'm still gonna see if I can get a light from Omegalighting...
No no. I am saying when you are apart of a community who shares the same interest as you and someone passes away it affects the whol community whether you knew them or not. I was using the bike community as an example.He was on a motorcycle???
Oh... I feel what you're saying... However we look at this its sad to lose a comrade...No no. I am saying when you are apart of a community who shares the same interest as you and someone passes away it affects the whol community whether you knew them or not. I was using the bike community as an example.
So I was in the right place... Daaaaammmm... This sucks...It would be great if his family continued the business, but the website is down now. https://www.omegalight.net
Sweeeeeeeeeet!!!I emailed them a few weeks ago.I was told on a few weeks once things calm down they'll be continuing the website.
