HANGING a grow light in a tent

I just bought a HLG BlackBird and a 4x4 AC Infinity tent. This is my first time so I want to secure the light properly so that I can adjust the light highth using the rope rachets and hanging hardware that came with the light. I've got it hung but would like to see some pics of other HLG or similar lights as to how they are hung.
Thanks

That looks fine. I would just make sure the ropes are looped around the bar that sits up higher than the other ones, so that the others ones add support.

... Do you use that to pull motors from cars during off hours? ...
LOL!! Not sure about a car engine - but I betcha that stuff would work great for lawn mower and chain saw motors.

I have 100' of this chain and have had it for a long time. And I am trying to remember why I bought it in the first place. I am going to wager it was for some project that Mrs. Starecase had in mind that never got off the ground. But it's been re-purposed rather nicely, methinks.

Try searching Google for hundreds of examples.

I know it looks real clugy ... but when given lemons, make lemonade. 5' clearance was all I had to work with and that there set-up helps save space up top so that I can run those lights almost full bore at 21". And most of that stuff is above the top part of the tent so you don't see it anyway.

But in those close up pictures. it really does look like an engine winch ...

These are my favorite, I have ones from al different places but these are the best imho.
Use the four carabiners that came with HLG and buy four straps one on each corner. I have HLG 350r and Horilux 350es.
