Yep, 8020 is good stuff, expensive as hell though, especially for all the connectors etc. I built my sim rig out of 80/20. I have like 16' of 1.5" 80/20 in the garage still and a bunch of random connectors/corner pieces etc.

Here is my light, all wired up! :) Now have to build the 2nd one. I ended up using hot glue over the wire going through the holes and securing it into the connectors, I have used it in the past for electrical connections and did some google searches and is good to go for kinda thing. It is working, so that is something. :)

It is an OSW wheel, made from a servo motor used in robots and cnc machines (kollmorgen servo). It is something similar to a kit like this. http://www.simsteering.com/products.html
The steering wheel itself is an actual racing wheel, using quick release mounts like you would use in a race car. I have a couple different rims I can switch between depending on the kind of car I am racing.

I race mainly in iracing on pc. :)

[QUOT="Airwalker16, post: 12589936, member: 913773"]Ha, they're ripping people off with REFLECTORS FROM KINGBRITE. those are NOT Ledil brand angelinas. They have vertical lines on the inside. JERRY'S are horizontal like theirs. They payed $0.88(reflector) & $1.00 (adapter) a piece and are selling them for $6.25.

@Airwalker16 - that is untrue. These are purchased directly from Ledil along with the other Ledil accessories we use and sell.

Don't have any reflectors from Jerry - never used them.

Please check your facts more closely.[/QUOTE]

Hi @hornedfrog2000

Thank you for your post - this was a very unfortunate incident and the only one (luckily) that we have had so far. That said, we have really tightened up shipping operations so that all packages require a signature upon delivery when shipped by USPS and UPS and we also validate that the shipping addresses are correct and will check with customers if there are any inconsistencies or issues with their billing/shipping information.

I appreciate your business and look forward to the opportunity to serve your needs in the future.

Have a good day,
Dan

Hi @hockeybry2

Thank you for your post and also your emails. I appreciate your kind feedback and am glad everything is up and running smoothly again. We understand that being without operational lights is simply not an option and will always do our best to make sure that the customer not only gets their equipment covered under warranty, but that they also experience as little pain in the process as well.

This is a bit of a spoiler but.........we have made a small but significant change in our kits. Since the potentiometer is the component most prone to failure over the long term due to it's analog nature, and in efforts to reduce down time and also improve the customer experience, we are now shipping all kits and fixtures with removable waterproof connection potentiometers. In the future, should your potentiometer (dimmer) fail simply remove it and send it back for a warranty replacement - no need to take your light out of service and no need to mess with sending back the whole power supply.

Credit goes to feedback from customers as is the case with most of our changes and innovations to our existing and developing product lines.

Have a great day.

Regards,
Dan

Just had a nice chat with Dan on his website, he got me setup with some lights for veg, great customer service.. highly recommend Dan and Timber Grow Lights!

I have a couple 4 x 4's lit up with Dan's lights and they are kicking ass. Have a tray of Obi Wan OG under 12 3590's and a tray of Obi Wan OG under a 1000 HPS next to it.. they look very similar (4 weeks in to flower atm). The crystal formation under both are amazing.. very hard to tell which is doing better atm.. very close. I will be putting in another tray of them soon, I will put those under a 1000 watt Gavita DE, curious to see how close they all perform to each other.

Just purchased 4 x 250w kits. Very impressed with the service, I would highly recommend Dan to any who is interested in his kits. Nice to deal with someone as knowledgeable as Dan, customization is an extra bonus. I am now completing a 1800w flower room with CXB3590.

Still building but i will post a journal, flower room will be 9ft x 10ft, with either a 7ft x 7ft or 6ft x 8ft coverage area. Should be 37 watts a sq ft, starting with lemon kush headband and the new Glueberry from Dutch Passion (glue x blueberry).
