Hi,

This is probably on RIU Somewhere but i could not find it.

26 meanwell drivers and 1 inventronics all presently dim-able

Thanks

Thank you @Rocket Soul . I wonder what parts gavita, ROI, chilled, nextlight all use. I've been searching for wifi Ethernet potentiometer but I'm gonna need some more info to do this. I'd like to get the stuff stateside atleast until I can confirm it works

The wifi Bluefish LED controller will work with 5v and 10v PWM and 0-10v dimming and is available from a USA store.
That looks amazing. :o Here is a review:

If you own an Emerson and/or Exotic board you can independently control the 2 circuits per board with a Breakout board. With this controller I can now recreate a solar day. Using the wavelengths, I have created a custom tune where the 840nm comes on first, then the 730nm, 660nm then my 3000k cobs, then my 5000k cobs and finally the 390nm. Then as Read more about review stating Bluefish controller is a must have for Emerson/Exotic boards
we get towards then end of the photoperiod, I dim those spectrums in reverse order, from 390 to lastly the infrared 840nm. Haven’t had enough time to analyze the results, but the important part is the control the bluefish has given me. If you have the full rapid kit but not a light controller than you are missing out!

I'd say as long as the Inventronics accepts PWM dimming(which I suspect it does) it should work.

Thank you @Isawthelight . I checked out the product and the Diy 2 channel boards.
I have 27 drivers to connect 26 MW 1 Inventronics. Would this be feasible?
I'm not a Bluefish user. I'd buy 3 break-out boards so you can use all six channels. Put 5 Inventronics on each channels 1-5 and 2 on channel 6. May get lucky and be able to run 27 drivers off just two channels; I don't know Inventronics dimmer specs.

If you have 27 drivers then would it be safe to assume this is a commercial grow? If so, then I would suggest going with a commercial lighting system. They aren't cheap, but they are reliable, and they are hard wired to the network instead of relying on WiFi. Lutron and Crestron are two of the most popular manufacturers for commercial grade lighting control, but you can't buy either of them to install yourself. They are installed and programmed by professionals.

We make an internet connected dimmer with smartphone / software API support, but we use a more industrial wireless mesh rather than WiFi. It's shipping now to lighting manufacturers and retail distributors - PM us for early access
