    When you said lead, do you mean power cord ?

    LED's for custom grow box

    Thanks for the info, I will definitely look into that driver, there was also another one on eBay that SupraSPL recommended, they're only about $13. My only major concern is how to actually hook the drivers up to a power source, I cant seem to find any guides on that.

    LED's for custom grow box

    Well, I was thinking i could perhaps run 5 of them @ 1400mA, in a W formation in my box, should allow for even light distribution, I find already in the box a 400w hps is a little hot, so the LED's should help with the heat hopefully, and will be a better light anyways, 250W sounds better than...

    LED's for custom grow box

    I will be running 8 plants in this space, in 2gal container running a 70/30 coco perlite mix, will be flowering once they are around 4-6 nodes most likely, as vertical space is quite limited. For money conservation i would prefer to run 4 of them, just need to find the top bin ones, and the...

    LED's for custom grow box

    Where would i get z4 bins, and the 1500ma drivers? I could only find the Z2 bin @ digikey. You think 4 of them would well outperform a 400w hps ? And can they properly cover my sq footage ? It is a weird shape so its tricky to cover.

    LED's for custom grow box

    So, you may remember me, i have 4 a-51 led's going in a 5x5 tent off-site, so i built a small stealth grow cabinet, it is built out of 3/4inch plywood and 2x3's for the frame. The cabinet measures 24"Dx42"Wx56"H, currently running a 400w HPS and an AC hood. I am looking to upgrade the box to LED...

    A51 RW-150 Headband Grow!

    This was my first run under LED, i may branch out into other brands in the future if funds permit, but that likely wont happen with a kid on the way! I loved em though, I will say, that 620w of them produced about the same amount of heat as a 600w hps, BUT, they pulled way more weight than you...

    A51 RW-150 Headband Grow!

    Well, they were quite big when I chopped em, its a late generation clone so the nodes are spaced out pretty far, its also an original OG cut, not headband like i was told originally, guy fucked up and gave me wrong cut. The og comes out insanely dank, frostiest i've ever seen, but the yield if...

    5th Official Party Cup Registration

    Thank you! I am both excited and scared, im not sad she's pregnant or anything, I also might build a stealth cab out of MDF(3z2ish) and run a 400 hps in there, but cant be having a big 4x4x7 grow tent in my house, too obvious.

    A51 RW-150 Headband Grow!

    Update, day 47F: Nothing new, just getting much fatter, and starting to smell ridiculously dank, you can almost smell it outside the tent even when its closed!

    A51 RW-150 Headband Grow!

    Update day 44F, Same as usual, fattening up every day! Been hitting them with 3/4 strength sensi bloom, and overdrive, no signs of burn of deficiencies so far. And surprisingly, no yellowing from Low N, still super green(almost too green).

    A51 RW-150 Headband Grow!

    Watered them today, and started them on the overdrive, thought they were a bit behind schedule but they did an insane ammount of fattening up in the last 2 weeks, so It'll likely finish at the ~60 day mark like I had originally planned.

    150w hps

    Here is a review of the one I speaking of. Looks the same as yours. I have the one in this article: http://www.420magazine.com/forums/grow-supply-product-reviews/91592-review-sun-system-150w-hps-system.html

    150w hps

    Check on the side of it for amperage rating, they're required to put it on the device, some of them ive seen are 4.5 amps.

    150w hps

    Just an FYI, If its the light im thinking of, it pulls 4.5Amps, which is ~500W at 120v, That would account for the extra heat, because it has to be dissipated somewhere. You would be better off going with a 400W Hps, will cost a little bit more, but uses LESS electricity and gives you more light.
