Two 600 watt HPS shelved! got my eyes on cutters kit few questions

You should only have 1 wire connected to the + and - coming from your driver. It looks like there are 2 red wires in one of the slots of the wago?

Start with the positive from your driver and connect it to the positive on the first cob. Then take the negative of that first cob and connect it to the positive of the second cob. Keep doing that until you get to the last cob, then that negative goes to the negative of the driver.

Also, four cobs in series per driver. Is there another driver for the other 4 cobs?

Hey man thanks for the reply.
I set up the driver in between two cobs.
Connected positive of driver to the positive cob then ran positive negative positive negative until I came around to the driver negative.. this is where the problem I think because I have two wires now..wagos are to be used connecting driver wires?

I am so confused I am probably going to have to look for someone to do it . being a private matter that might not happen.
Here's picture if anyone would like to take shot helping me on how to connect..driver top left

It's 400w driver it's for 8 cobs

It looks like you have 2 parallel cob strings wired to one driver, one string has one cob on it, and the other string has 7 cobs wired in series. The string of one cob lights up, the string of seven doesn't light. If you run all 8 cobs on one driver, it looks like you should run 2 strings of 4 cobs each string.

Ah ok, I was looking at the kit description on cutter which describes two drivers.

dumb as rocks when it comes to these types of jobs.
So looking at the mouse video ..I set up a driver in between two cobs ,I started with the positive ran it to positive on nearest left cob.. then negative positive so fort all the way around but when I get to driver I have a positive wire but no where to put the negative, ..so that maybe where you see it in wagos..

So the wagos i got (6in total)

I put one wire in one slot another wire another slot. which makes them connected as one?
Figure it once get it for life.

Eventually I will probably figured this out after 4 or 5 days such is the intelligence.

Did the kit come with a wiring diagram or instructions you can post?

 

[turfsire]

So I got the driver in between two cobs I go positive to the left but I get around frame to the negative on driver I'm left with positive wire nowhere for driver negative

I have been their man. My guess with the info provided would be to take out the Wago connectors and just run solid wire with no connectors to each COB port. Start at the pos + of ur driver to the pos + of ur 1st COB. Then go from the neg - side of the 1st COB to the pos + of ur 2nd COB. Just repeat the process until u reach ur last COB. For the last COB run a wire from the neg - side of the COB to the neg - side of the driver thus completing the circuit. Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Yeah man you have gone wrong somewhere along the way with the wiring. At the end of the series you should have a cable that goes from the - of the last cob to the - of the driver. I will draw you a diagram...

Here you go man. Follow the below diagram. You need 9 lengths of cable to complete the series. You can see the first cob is + to + from the driver. Then from that same cob it is - to + all the way round to the last cob which goes back to the - of the driver.

Going to give this approach tomorrow thanks @klx @greengrassgrower1
. Will update

@Kix nailed it. they should be wired in series

And let there be light. problem was The dodo bird is alive and well I managed to connect positive to positive negative to negative
Thinking back now I'm laughing thought I needed solid core wire solder iron but what I need was a wake the fuck up..
Everything was in line what I got from cutters the LED light amazing I had two 600 watt Mars hydro it put off twice as much heat garbage needless to say, as you can see the light bright as hell cfl×10
Got googles.
By the way I got ten Berry bomb regular seeds six days on 1212 ,I want to take cuttings from them , I heard the lower arms of the plant have higher potassium to take from .. i have quite a few now ,these hopefulls r 7 weeks old no sex yet taller 1's probably are ?..
It's going to be first time taking cuttings tomorrow. I would expect a cull in few days Anyhow..any advice be appreciated if I can take cuttings..

I edit my post there any experience with cuttings from a mother plant
