Calling out to Weezard for LED advice
Howzit, MP?
Thanks for the props, brah.
"They make axial fans that are wisper quiet yet blow like a hurricane, I've replaced them in CAT scanners, but they ain't cheap."
Amen to that!
I've seen prices that I wouldn't pay for a car.
I love the tunable colors, by the way.
Thanks, It's kinda Bass ackwards from nature's way.
There's not MORE red at the end of the day, there's actualy considerably less.
Looks red to us, 'cause the blue fades out first.
I'm hoping the girls don't notice
"One of the companies made a controller that allowed you to control the "color temperature" of the output. There's got to be a "controller" out there to allow you to drive the LED arrays by your computer."
There are several PIC controllers available.
Most are dedicated to mixing different shades of white.
All, are expensive and I'm kinda mono-culture oriented anyway.:jointsmile:
So, I have no need for rapid, real-time, changes.
I set a mix, write it down and watch for a week or so.
Once I know what works best for my favorite strains, I can go back to 2 kine hardwired lights for veg and bloom.
150 Watts of the red is overkill even for blooming. But I needed the headroom for testing.
Once I can outdo a 1k HPS for less than half the power cost, I'll consider this project pau.
These lights will then get hung in an auto-water leveling auto-buffering 5g. dwc bucketed tent and have a single seletor switch marked, oddly enough, Veg, and bloom.
I plan to make it "chimp simple".
Just slide it into a condo closet and plug it in.
Gonna call it Bubba's black-thumb system.
Not for commerce though, I'm retired.
Mostly so I won't have to stop growing if I get too senile.:smokin:
Trust me, had I found someone on the net doing this to my standards, free, or dirt cheap, my lazy ass would be floating in warm salt water 12/7.
I am one lazy lizard, brah.
Just doin' dis, 'cause, well, someone's gotta.
Show me a clutz proof, affordable, plug n play grow system, and I'll re-retire in a heartbeat.
Hana Pau!
