    Mean Well driver RIP and RMA

    Someone has had to RMA a driver? I could really use some guidance here! They were purchased on May 30th of this year so probably not covered by the seller, Sager Electronics, but I contacted their support and awaiting a reply. If you click the RMA link on the Mean Well site it links to a login...

    Mean Well driver RIP and RMA

    I built a PLC reference v1. 2 16 strip fixture using 2 HLG-320h-c1400b's exactly as Green Gene outlines with the drivers remotely mounted outside the tent. The light hasn't even been running 2 months and only at ~60% yet I woke up this morning to my eyes burning and the whole place reaking of...

    5x10

    I'm in the same boat, need a good flower light for 5x10... I'm considering going with 16 qb96 v2 with 4 hlg600h-54a or b drivers. Should come out less than $2k for 2400w at the wall. Anyone have thoughts on that setup?

    pH Crashes and EC Spikes in DWC - is this the issue?

    Just a FYI, chloramine takes much longer than that when leaving water to sit out. That's why they started using it, it stays stable for much longer than chlorine. There was a study done that suggested when using tap water for moisture when rearing delicate insects to let it sit at least 14 days...

    Fast fit flood table alternative

    Look at t nutz extrusions, might be able to build something close to that price. I just bought some 4' extrusions to use as heatsinks and was quite surprised how reasonable it was. However, the 90 degree brackets was another story! It's hella sturdy when bolted together and even if it costs a...

    Putting the flower room into overdrive. 1110 Watts quantum boards + 2000 Watts HPS

    @jonnynobody Do you have a link to those nozzles? I've been looking for some with good threads like that! Clone king has the 360 but they are on back order and I would like to try some of the 180's as well. Did the 180 work out for you? Are they 3/32 like others? Did you need to tap the pvc? I...

    Hello, my first post here and I have some questions about my first hydro setup (rdwc). My setup is based on PA Hydroponics fallponics, 4x 13g + 13g res. I've been reading a lot around here and it seems the concensus is that air pump/stones aren't necessary if you have good water circulation? My...
