DIY with Quantum Boards

[BigCityGrow]

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

Think my QB grown girls are ready for the chop earlier than hps with the same strain and on par with cmh but more yield I recon.

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.

I have two actually... Had em for over 25 years.
Don't remember who I bought them from. I think it was a place called Hamilton Technologies. One of the companies that had ads in High Times way back when...

Cool- mine weren't so neatly packaged but they were stout lol

 

[crankz1]

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.
