Yeah it’s not bad. I added it to my 2x4. Heat displacement is spread out nice. And plant response was really quick.

Yo marq, this little 100w is pretty good. I've got it on a rack where I'm sprouting tomatoes and peppers for spring planting. It is significantly brighter than another discount 100w I previously got off this thread.

Good to hear. I won't even mention the $10 150 light I caught late then. Lol


What kind of peppers exactly?

Lol right! I never feel bad about buying cheap lights lol. Perfect for backups, setting up another veg spot, adding light to an existing setup. Or just to horde lol

Lol. I don’t care. When they’re that cheap. Sometimes I even forget I ordered until it shows up. Or I’m expecting something else and I check the tracking update and they mix a box together

I'm not happy about the increased price of Coco Coir, though I knew it was coming being a heavy product shipped in from the tropics. I may go back to bricks, but I hate the inconvenience of rehydrating them during the winter. Funny thing is, best price I could find among the decent pre-bagged coco brands on Amazon was Canna, which used to be the most expensive-now all the second tier brands cost $50+ per bag. I wish I had a local hydro store!

You should try to see if you have a mixing yard near you, you may have to buy a half yard or so but a lot of the time they'll have the "fluffed" coir near me, not sure if it's buffered or not though.

fwiw I bought those $25-35 Bozily lights posted recently. I had issues with one of the ballasts. When on.. one of them would blink randomly and when off the same one would turn ON. (make sure to check your lights during lights off) I messaged the seller and within a day they requested a picture of the issue which would be difficult. I sent a link to a video and they responded within a day if I wanted compensation or a new power supply. Will update if it goes downhill but pretty impressed with the response so far.

Iv never heard of a light turning on. If your on a timer. That’s your timer. And if you cutting the switch and it still turns on. (Or pulling the plug I dont know if those have a switch) you got a ghost. Timers cut power completely and so does pulling the plug lol. So if it blinks when it’s on. And randomly turns on. I’d check your power source to be safe too.

I had no timer on it. It was plugged directly in. I suspect it's the ballasts built in wifi that's the issue. I have fluke meters and lab equipment at my house fwiw so I know somewhat around electrical issues.

Mines working fine. Maybe the connector to that driver? Using a timer instead of the remote. Maybe i should try my remote timer.

Yeah I checked connectors first. one works fine and the board works fine when I swap them. I tried to power them up with an extra meanwell ps but the output was like 91v. Having a timer will mitigate turning on randomly since no power will be going to it but still sort of unnerving. I still had issues during lights on with the same power supply. I think the LED's are great though.. esp for the price and think once it's replaced it'll be all good. So far the company has been responsive so that was what I was mainly reporting. Shit happens sometimes.

yeah that's what was confusing. Was dealing with flickering when the lights were on... then while it was plugged direct and not on... it came on after an hour or so. The main issue is the power supply's have some wifi functions built in and must be borked and flipping things on/off dim/bright... that's my uneducated guess.

I won't continue to clutter up best deals but will follow up either way since companies that step up should be noticed.
