Another thing i do not see mentioned is that the ELG drivers dim 0-10V as opposed to 1-10V which the HLG does. This should mean you could use your arduino controller to dim all the way down to off without needing a power switch relay(like you need for the HLG) and eliminate the need for any...
Think you misunderstood what i asked or i may be misunderstanding your response... i already have a relay & arduino to turn my cobs on and FULLY off without a timer because HLG line is 1-10v not 0-10v like the ELG drivers. A t5 fixture i would want to add with just a 2-prong plug doesnt have a...
@VegasWinner are there any options to connect a T5HO fixture(for my UV's) to an arduino type controller i.e. storm x, hurricane, etc. to control the on/off functions? was going to start with 15 minutes on out the hour for 4 hrs during the last few weeks of flower and dont want to incorporate...
@CobKits in the 'Results' of that study it stated "Only the Delta9-THC content in leaf and floral tissues of drug-type plants increased significantly with UV-B radiation." ...are the floral tissues they are referring too, the flowers that we smoke? if so, isnt that increase a positive thing...
@VegasWinner Agromax has a AgroMax Pure UV T5 Bulb which is 75% UVB - 25% UVA ....
Distance From Lamp Microwatts Per CM2 Coverage Area
1': 440 uw/cm2
2': 170 uw/cm2
3': 95 uw/cm2
4': 64 uw/cm2
Thoughts???..........
@eyderbuddy if you mixed in some 4K's in your lighting fixture to control stretch a bit, would you get 4K in 90 cri or 80cri to go with your 3500K 90cri?
@CobKits sometimes my lights are hung low at lower wattage like 10-14 inches from canopy?...if i have the agromax bulbs raised higher than i keep my cob fixture then the uv light would be hitting the top of my pin heat-sinks and overall cob frame im hanging. How high should i have the two 4-ft...
i have a 4x4 space with 16 cobs(1 per sq ft @35-40 watts each during flower). i have 4 bars with 4 cobs on each giving me 3 spaces between the 4 bar strips. i was thinking about getting the 4 ft uv agromax bulbs to fit in the spaces between the bars... will 3, 4ft. bulbs be too much UV for my...
@VegasWinner if he had 3 drivers.. can you connect 3 - 4.7k resistors to that 1 potentiometer or is there a limit to how many on 1 pot?? also what is the purpose of that 4.7k resistor.. what would happen using the pot without it??
Thats another thing i am contemplating @rhygin77 .. i havent seen enough testimonials from ANYONE saying that they have experienced a difference in their cannabis harvest using a sunrise/sunset dimming technique, to seal the deal for me to add the extra $100+ to my build! ... Might just add a...
@rhygin77 Yep... http://www.mouser.com/Search/Refine.aspx?Keyword=elg-200-c1400
So the answer is yes?!? This will replace my need for timers and an ac relay? Assuming i have the Storm LED Controller with 10V Analog Converter, ofcoarse!
@VegasWinner i see everyone talking about the HLG dimmable driver (B type) not dimming all the way to 0%(off) but rather 10% without additional hardware like the PowerSwitch Tail 2... well, i came across meanwells ELG 240C
