They are digital dimmers and need a constant power source to keep at the setting you set. If you unplug the dimmer while the drivers are still plugged in, the lights turn on full power.
Those dimmers are actually really neat, they come with little remotes that have 25/50/75/100% presets, step by step dimming, and even a timer. I have one on each side of my tent. Each one runs to 2 drivers with 4 boards on each driver.

This is what I paid for my stuff.
16x 304 plus board in 3500k+660nm $25.98/piece
16x Heat sink in Black 326*195*10mm $9.96/piece
2x Digital dimmer $12.26/piece
4x HLG-320H-C2800B $76.61/piece
~$150 for the frames, wiring, and connectors

I wanted to get HLG-480H-C3500B drivers.. but they were out of stock until the end of this month so I had to settle.

Question regarding the dimmer, got a HLG-320H-48B + an 800 board. When I first mounted everything, I was able to dim pretty much from 4-320+ watts.

Now there's "nothing" in between 109w and 240w..(if i add 10 % to 109w, it jumps up to 240w and so forth) it's not really a big issue, just wanted to know if you've experienced something like that?

4-109 works flawlessly and I've ran it from 240-360 without issues.

Otherwise the remote is really neat!

@Moflow, you have been a big part in my decision to go with some Chinese boards these last few days, just looking at your grows is good enough for me to go that route...

Well i wasnt going to show pictures of anything till it was done.. Had a few root problems early on that stunted my growth for a bit, but everything recovered and eventually exploded. just switched them to 12/12 a few days ago.
But here are some of my girls under my 304+ meijui 3500k boards with 660nm leds. Using these for the whole cycle.
