The lights have arrived and are well built but I have a question already, Would I use the dimmer for seedlings and run at full power for veg and bloom ?
Here are the results. This is a kingbrite 240 watt 3000k lm301h 660nm board. 3500k board should be similar output. These measurements are without reflective walls and the hottest spot. I added the pictures with the results and a chart showing ideal ppfd range for reference.
