Problems with led grow lights!!!

[Sketch691]

Hey everyone! I've been having some defect issues with the company Bestva. I have bought and returned about 10 of these led grow lights, brand new 600w,1200w,and 2000w reflector series Bestva led grow lights. Reason due to the lights emit a constant glow and then pulse lightly every 4-5 seconds, when plugged in and power is off. They seem to work just fine other than the glow. I took one apart to see if any wires were touching or loose, ect. And found that something is daft if you wiggle some wires near the plug (top right 1st photo yellow) but nothing obviously wrong to the naked eye. Any info or comments will be appreciated.

If you have bought and returned 10 of those grow lights then what does that tell you? Seriously? Stop getting those grow lights would be my guess.

Get a refund and move on

Problem is you bought shit lights. This is why you don’t buy shitty leds and why you should stick with hlg, timber etc or build your own.

Well I am to that point now where im returning all the lights and doing more research on certain lights. Now understand I am a recreational grower and fairly new to cannabis growing. I have set up a 6 cell R-dwc system in a 4x8 tent, 440cfm fan in 6" ducting with filter, 5 gallon black buckets and a 30 gallon res. I've been calling around to a few growers and they are recommending cmh, lec's or traditional hps.

Well you can do that, or you can buy a decent led for once and grow just the same. Its up to you. The HPS route is going to be cheaper than getting a good LED setup for your tent but if you have the money, LEDs can be bought that grow just as good, with around 60-70% of the watts used.

I’m a rec grower. I love my leds. I run 6k in actual Watts. They range from ones I’ve built to a few hlg 600h. I’ve grown with everything and love my leds. I’m on the extreme end though I had geothermal put in to cool and heat my rooms. I spend a bit of money on this hobby like I do with all my hobbies.

I don’t even have to worry about energy use either I have solar that runs my house and my grow rooms. I run leds because I really like how they grow.

Buy better quality lights from a different manufacturer.
