I didnā€™t see the output amp :thinking: hmm.
While we are on about drivers mate. Iā€™ve just bought a 60 x 60 x 90 tent to house a single plant for pollination. Iā€™m gonna bang 3 of them solstrips in it. Iā€™m wanting to run it at 120w max. What driver do you suggest? Iā€™m not bothered if itā€™s meanwell or not as long as itā€™s reliable.

Thatā€™s your ticket there bro at 50 quid. Otherwise any 24v 5amp driver will give you the 120w you desire

Thatā€™s cheaper than I was expecting. Iā€™ll bookmark it and order it on the weekend. Thanks @anon58740919. Your a legend :+1:

First port of call for any meanwells at the minute is eBay. Top tip look for ex maplin stock you can usually barter with the seller and buy right away. Me and @Albannach had a few good deals between us this way. If all else fails Iā€™d recommend you try mouser.com theyā€™re based in Texas but ship via France so you donā€™t pay duty. Just add your vat on before you order for actual price and thatā€™s what it will be.

I was expecting a lot more than Ā£50 so Iā€™ll likely just order the one from the link mate. I flipped to 12/12 on Saturday and new tent will be here tomorrow. Iā€™ll stick the meizhi 600 with just bloom switch on in it for time being until Iā€™ve managed to get the light built.

They are handy. Using the sonoff pow If Iā€™m worried about my plants while out I can check on the app to make sure the lights still have power to them as it gives real time wattage that itā€™s using

They started to intrigue you the wrong time. If you want strips now. You can either go stateside or I can do you a deal on a few that have done a run already. I can strip back to 8 on my rig and part with 6 tops

I appreciate it bud I really do. Iā€™m cool though I have the stuff to grow for the time being. I tend to add as I go. Iā€™m sure someone else would need it more.

Cheers though

Mate youā€™d be daft not to enter a competition for free shit. Even if you had to sit on them. Theyā€™re currently taking up shelf space in the shed and I wanna give something back to the OG community

@Esrgood4u Iā€™ve put your replacement th16 in with your cubes already so you canā€™t enter cos that would just be greedy :rofl:

I didnā€™t mean strips bro theyā€™re not going in a comp. Just automation stuff. Iā€™ve got a 14 strip light but Iā€™m happy to back that off to 8 if bongedtobits wants a go with strips on a semi cheap thing lol.

@Esrgood4u I didnā€™t do it for anything in return mate. Donā€™t worry.

Ahhhh my mistake. Well I appreciate the replacement for the free th16 you already sent me. If I can figure out what the problem is with the original Iā€™ll make sure it goes to a worthwhile cause :+1:
