Hi All,
I pulled out my old light, it has 6 vero 18's surrounding 2x CXA 3070's.
(I say old, more just 'unused' Ive been using an identical one for umpteen grows all good -
)
I need to put it too use but when i switched on to test it's doing some odd things.
All the Vero light up fine but when I switch it off only one goes immediately to an off state. The others take various times to loose the luminosity from the emitters, seen as white spots that stay hot for a few seconds.
One in particular taking longer than the others. I thought it was random but seems its the same pattern each time. I hadn't noticed this previously but may have always been the case.
Is this likely indicating a poor heatsink / paste contact from those cobs staying luminous longer?
The first one on the positve end of string is the one going off immediately, maybe the rest glowing is just remaining discharge from the power supply?
any thoughts? Thanks!....
