I have my own small masonry construction company lost $10000 in equipment last year get fuck all from insurance. Every time I buy tools or equipment I have to take a photo of barcode and note how machinery is stored and put it in a log book because of thieves I have to work an hour extra a week just for paper work. Or just small things like F clamps last week I had to set a job out with straight edges took me 4 hours to set the house out so the bricklayers could start the next day (you use clamps to hold the straight edges up with timber 2 per straight edge) that night someone decided they wanted the clamps took them only $150 in clamps but it’s the 4 hours of work that fucked me and I have tradesmen standing around not making money for 14 clamps :wall::wall: that $10000 is my profit it’s my kids education and health care

On a lighter note (pardon the pun) can you run an lec and led in the same tent. Has anyone done this with success? I’m getting conflicting answers on the internet like usual. My cmh is on a light rail running on an angle I’ll put a rough drawing so I hope it makes some sense. I don’t really want to buy another lec as I already have a led and on the light rail it vegs the majority of the space it’s just flowering it need a top up hope this makes senseimage.jpg

You can run led lights, all you need to watch out for is that you keep them at the same height as your other light to give the maximum spread and not shade anything. Probably one or 2 cob lights will cover that area for you

HELP, IM a Noob so dont over power me with info.

I just purchased 3 x https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/mean-well-usa-inc/APC-25-700/1866-1125-ND/7702576

to go with 3 X https://www.cutter.com.au/product/ssk-1560-730_660/

i hope it will work ok?

ive never seen these https://www.cutter.com.au/product/ssk-1560-730_660/ boards before i guess that little box on them has a place for a positive and negative wire? and i just wire the driver to a plug?

I plan to run this in the middle of HLG 550 panels V1 , version one.

I feel my Cree 3590 cobs at 3500k do better than my 3000k HLG 550s thats why im thinking of adding a red supplement light to the 550s

Thank you.

Did ya do it?
sure did, 10 deep reds 2 far reds , will see how it goes next grow.Linear Strip, Solder less, 660nm Deep Red (10), 730nm Far Red(2)

https://www.cutter.com.au/product/ssk-1560-730_660/

Can i run it with my other light, on the same cycle , would be simpler for me (Emerson effect) or do i need to run the reds on a separate timer so that they run 15mins after lights out? to best use the 2 far reds? put them to sleep faster and shorten flowering cycle?
