Average temps for the next 3 months in my area are around 7-8°C (45°F) min, 15-16°C (60°F) max.
I think that's what I'll do, yeah. Can't see too much love for Mars on forums like this.
It would work, but the qb is better IMO
Not sure, it's an Australian seller on eBay (ledexpressaus), and the item seems hand assembled so technically I am buying local haha.. for the price I'd hope they are not cheap Chinese components as that was the whole reason I didn't spend half that same amount on one of these~
DIY stuff is not an option for me at this point in time, I have no skills or equipment and my head is already exploding from basic horticultural information heh.
It looks like it maybe, you can always hit up prawn and see what he can hook you up with just the price might go up if he has to build it a bit more
That isn't the one I got, description was too vague and I figured it had to be cheap Chinese knock-off parts.
Yes prawn is great to get help from, they look like some of the Chinese ones but idk not and expert at all. 99% of the diy is more so watching a video on YouTube and plugging a couple wires in and your go to go. It’s not like your soldering diodes to boards and all thatThat isn't the one I got, description was too vague and I figured it had to be cheap Chinese knock-off parts.
This is the QB I purchased

Prawn I assume is @ Grow Lights Australia?
Hey man, do you live anywhere near Perth?
No I'm in Melbourne, and Hydro Hill don't have an online store but I should be fine to go with cutter.com.au or GLA when I'm ready to do this in future. I guess I could always sell my current lights down the track too, seems like interest in home growing Anything is skyrocketing at the moment (and indeed i'll be setting up a separate tent to grow some veggies too!
). It seems like to make ones own QB, you essentially just need the boards, a heatsink, driver & rope-ratchet system (is that all?). But I thought surely there would be some additional tools required to get all that together besides just a screwdriver? If not, definitely an option for Grow #2 or #3..
